What it is

Certified organic nonfat milk is cow's milk from which the fat has been removed. The 'organic' certification means the cows were raised according to specific USDA standards, including access to pasture and feed grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The milk is then typically pasteurized.

Why it's used

Nonfat milk is used as a primary ingredient in fluid milk products, yogurt, and ice cream. It provides protein and calcium while keeping the fat content low. Manufacturers use it to achieve a desired texture and nutritional profile without adding significant fat.

Health notes

Nonfat milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of protein, calcium, and vitamin D (if fortified). Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated milk and dairy products. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Milk is one of the 9 major allergens identified by the FDA. People with a milk allergy should avoid products containing nonfat milk.
