The present invention relates to a method of preparing a fermented milk product. The method comprises the steps of treating a milk substrate with a low pH sensitive peptidase and a microorganism, and allowing the treated milk substrate to ferment to produce the fermented milk product.

A soy milk fermented substance is provided. The soy milk fermented substance has a taste and flavor or smooth physicality similar to that of yogurt obtained by fermenting milk with a lactic acid without applying processing treatment such as enzyme treatment or extraction treatment to soy milk which is a material and without adding a material such as a sugar source, even in a case where only Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus are employed as a lactic acid bacteria mixture starter at the time of making a fermented substance which employs soy milk as a material.

A fermentation of a milk source with Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar diacetylactis (CNCM No. I-1962) to form a fermented milk product. The fermented milk product has a flavor and aroma. The fermented milk product can be in the form of a powder or a concentrate. The fermented milk product has applications in the food industry.

The present disclosure relates to processes for producing antihypertensive peptide compositions from milk compositions. It also relates to peptide compositions producible by the processes, as well as dosage forms, food products, supplements, powdered milk formula and beverages containing the peptide compositions, and to therapeutic methods and uses of the peptide compositions.

A method for preparing a kefir product involves providing bacterial strains selected from Acetobacter, Leuconostoc, Lactococcus, or Lactobacillus; providing yeast strains selected from Pichia, Saccharomyces, Kazachstania, or Kluyveromyces; adding the bacterial and yeast strains to milk to form a mixture; and allowing the mixture to ferment to yield the kefir product.
