Skim or Low-Fat Milk

Skim or Low-Fat Milk is pasteurized cow's milk with most of the fat removed, commonly used in breakfasts, cooking and baking as a lower-fat alternative to whole milk. It provides 3.4g of protein per 100g, making it a useful source of high-quality animal protein in mixed meals. Nutritionally, low-fat milk is lower in total and saturated fat than full‑fat dairy while still delivering calcium and B vitamins (notably B12 and riboflavin), so it can help boost dietary protein and key micronutrients without as much fat. It contains virtually no fiber. From a health perspective, it supplies a complete amino acid profile and several important micronutrients for bone and blood health, while being a moderate‑calorie, lower‑fat dairy choice compared with whole milk.
