Pasteurized Sheep Skim Milk

Pasteurized sheep skim milk is milk from sheep that has had most of its fat removed. The milk is then heated to a specific temperature for a set amount of time to kill harmful bacteria, making it safe for consumption. Sheep milk is naturally higher in fat and protein than cow's milk.

Manufacturers use pasteurized sheep skim milk as a source of protein and for its creamy texture in various food products. It is often found in dairy-based items like cheese, yogurt, and ice cream, as well as in some sauces and baked goods.

Pasteurized sheep skim milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein, calcium, and other nutrients. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated dairy products, and while specific evaluations for sheep skim milk are not widely publicized, milk and dairy are considered safe when consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. No significant health controversies are associated with its typical use.
