Can milk be replaced by soya milk ?
Absolutely not. First of all, the name soya milk is false ; milk can only have one source, which is animal. It is more appropriate to talk about soya water. Regulations are at present being prepared to rename it correctly. On the other hand, this soya water cannot be a substitute for milk since it does not contain the same nutrients and cannot cover as many as the organism’s needs as milk can. By the way, the AFSSA has advised against the use of soya by toddlers under the age of three years. (A. Chicoulaa, CIDIL dietitian)

Lactase breaks down the milk-sugar lactose into the more easily digestible sugars galactose and glucose.
