ACTIVATED CARBON MILK

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention is related to activated carbon milk, which can be consumed by people with lactose intolerance, has a longer shelf life and better nutritional properties.

PRIOR ART

Activated carbon or amorphous carbon is an allotrope of the element carbon. It is a black organic substance in the form of a very fine powder that is exposed to heat and moisture in order to retain and trap the compounds that cause color and odor in the melts. It is obtained by various processes of materials such as wood, coal, hazelnuts and coconut. Its high internal surface area makes this substance attractive for use in industry as a good adsorbent. In the known technique, it has found a wide range of applications such as medicine, pharmacy, chemistry, petroleum, mining, nuclear, automobile, waste gas and water cleaning.

People who do not have or secrete little lactase enzyme cannot adequately digest milk and dairy products, and this causes discomfort. This condition is known as lactose intolerance, lactose allergy, lactose intolerance or lactose sensitivity. The inability of the body to digest the lactose milk sugar found in milk, which is seen in lactase enzyme deficiency, is called lactose intolerance. Indigestible lactose is fermented and digested by bacteria in the small intestine and large intestine, causing the formation of short-chain fatty acids, hydrogen (H2), carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane gas (CH4). As a result, the gas produced by bacteria causes problems such as abdominal pain, cramps, feeling of tension in the abdomen, indigestion, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea in people who consume milk due to lactose intolerance.

People with lactose intolerance who consume milk may experience various indigestion complaints. Activated carbon also serves to bind (adsorb) toxins and heavy metals in the intestine. Therefore, activated carbon milk is also important for a healthy diet as it will help remove toxins and heavy metals from the body. The shelf life of milk is extended due to the binding of heavy metals and toxins in milk. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention is related to activated carbon milk, which is formed by adding activated carbon to the milk obtained from milking animals. Since the activated carbon in the milk obtained with this method will chelate the lactose, a milk that people with lactose intolerance can consume without any problems is formed. Thus, people with lactose intolerance can consume milk comfortably without being deprived of the benefits of milk such as maintaining bone health, weight control and protection from diseases.

It has been stated that the most important factor why consumers prefer this product is health. Among these, the ability of people with lactose intolerance to benefit from milk and dairy products comes first, followed by protecting bone health and protecting against diseases.

The stages of obtaining activated carbon milk are as follows; before or after the milk is pasteurized, 0.001 -20 grams of activated carbon is added to 1 liter of milk. Afterwards, the activated carbon milk is passed through the milk filter. This process is applied two or three times. At least one of various flavors, fruits and vegetables can be added to milk before or after adding activated carbon.

In our invention, people with lactose intolerance can consume this milk without any problems, since activated carbon chelates lactose in activated carbon milk, unlike milk in which activated carbon is not added. Activated carbon also extends the shelf life of milk and contributes to healthy nutrition, as it binds toxins and heavy metals in milk.
