So, what is lacteos?

Lacteos is a term used to describe dairy products that are derived from milk. These products include cheese, yogurt, milk, and butter. The word lacteos comes from the Latin word "lactis," which means milk. Dairy products are an essential part of many diets and provide a significant source of calcium and protein. However, lacteos can also be high in fat and calories, so it is important to consume them in moderation. Whether you enjoy a slice of cheese on your sandwich or a bowl of creamy yogurt for breakfast, lacteos provide a delicious and nutritious addition to any meal.
