Grade A Nonfat Organic Milk

Grade A Nonfat Organic Milk is milk from cows raised on organic farms, meaning they are not treated with antibiotics or growth hormones, and their feed is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. It is pasteurized to kill harmful bacteria and then skimmed to remove most of the fat. The 'Grade A' designation means it meets federal milk safety standards.

This is a primary ingredient in many dairy products. It is used as the base for fluid milk products like skim milk, 1% lowfat milk, and 2% reduced-fat milk. It also serves as a key component in yogurt, cheese, ice cream, and other dairy-based foods.

Milk is a source of calcium, vitamin D, and protein, which are important nutrients. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers milk a staple food. International bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated milk components. While milk is generally recognized as safe and nutritious, some individuals have lactose intolerance or milk allergies.
