Low-Fat Milk (1–2% Fat)

Low-Fat Milk (1–2% Fat) is a common dairy beverage made from cow's milk and is used worldwide in cooking, baking, cereal, and as a drink on its own. It’s known for being a lower-fat alternative to whole milk while retaining the familiar milky flavor and texture. Nutrition-wise, 3.38g of protein per 100g makes it a convenient source of high-quality protein; it also provides important micronutrients found in dairy such as iodine, riboflavin (B2) and vitamin B12. Compared with full‑fat versions it contains less total and saturated fat, which is why people often choose it to reduce calorie and fat intake. From a health perspective, this milk delivers well-balanced dairy protein and useful micronutrients that support thyroid function and B‑vitamin status, and its lower fat content can help with calorie control. It contains little to no fiber or plant-based antioxidants, so pairing it with whole grains, fruits or vegetables will improve overall dietary balance.
