Company behind lab-grown milk protein eyes Canadian animal-free dairy market.

An Israeli food tech company Remilk has received approval from Health Canada to sell its lab-grown milk protein to dairy manufacturers and food companies in Canada. The company's BLG protein is created through precision fermentation, making it an animal-free alternative to traditional milk products. Health Canada has confirmed the protein is safe for human consumption and poses no greater risk to human health than whey protein from cow's milk. However, products containing the protein must be labeled for potential allergic responses similar to milk.
