What it is

Fresh milk is the lacteal secretion of cows or other animals, typically from cows. It is a nutrient-rich liquid containing water, fats, proteins, lactose (sugar), vitamins, and minerals. Salt (sodium chloride) is a mineral compound commonly added to milk for flavor enhancement and preservation.

Why it's used

Milk and salt are often combined in processed foods for flavor and texture. Salt can enhance the savory notes of dairy and act as a mild preservative, while milk contributes richness, moisture, and a creamy mouthfeel. They are frequently found in baked goods, frozen meals, and savory snacks.

Health notes

Milk is a source of essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin D. Salt (sodium) intake is a public health concern, as high intake is linked to increased blood pressure. The FDA monitors sodium levels in foods. JECFA has evaluated salt and milk components, and their safety is well-established at typical consumption levels. Excessive sodium intake is associated with health risks, but moderate amounts are essential for bodily functions.

Allergen info

Milk is one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. Salt is not an allergen.
