What it is
Skim milk is cow's milk from which most of the fat has been removed. It is a liquid dairy product that is a byproduct of the butter and cheese-making process. The fat content is typically less than 0.5%.
Why it's used
Skim milk is used as a lower-fat alternative to whole milk in beverages and recipes. Manufacturers add it to products like yogurt, ice cream, and baked goods to reduce fat content while maintaining a creamy texture and milky flavor. It is also used in cultured dairy products and as an ingredient in processed foods.
Health notes
Skim 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 JECFA and EFSA have evaluated dairy products. Consuming skim milk as part of a balanced diet is associated with adequate nutrient intake.
Allergen info
Skim milk is derived from milk, which is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
