And Skim Milk

Skim milk is milk from which most of the fat has been removed. It is a liquid dairy product that is a byproduct of the cheese and butter-making processes. Skim milk is lower in calories and fat than whole milk.

Skim milk is often used as a beverage or as an ingredient in processed foods where a lower fat content is desired. It can be found in baked goods, dairy products, and snack mixes.

Skim milk is a source of protein, calcium, and vitamin D. The FDA considers skim milk to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Major health organizations like the WHO and EFSA have not raised specific concerns about skim milk consumption at typical levels. Evidence does not link skim milk consumption to adverse health effects.
