Abstract
The range of cheeses analysed for their lactose and galactose content to verify their suitability for a low galactose diet in galactosaemia continue to expand. No assumptions should be made about the suitability of any cheese for galactosaemia until reputable and repeated analysis has been conducted. To analyse the lactose content of a range of Mini Babybel cheeses. The lactose content of 10 samples of Mini Babybel (five Mini Babybel Original and five Mini Babybel Emmental) was analysed by Leatherhead Food international Laboratory. The lactose content of Mini Babybel Original varied between <2 mg to 12 mg 100g(-1) and Mini Babybel Emmental was between 6 and 7 mg 100g(-1). The lactose content of Mini Babybel Original and five Mini Babybel Emmental is too high to render them suitable for the treatment of galactosaemia.
