What it is

This is milk that has been pasteurized to kill harmful bacteria and then passed through a filter to remove most of the water and lactose. This process concentrates the milk proteins (casein and whey) and minerals. The result is a liquid with a higher protein content and less sugar than regular milk.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use pasteurized ultra-filtered nonfat milk to increase the protein content and improve the texture of dairy products. It is often found in yogurts, protein drinks, and some cheeses. Its concentrated protein helps create a thicker, creamier product.

Health notes

Pasteurized ultra-filtered nonfat milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of protein and calcium. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated milk and its components. No significant health controversies are associated with its typical consumption.

Allergen info

Pasteurized ultra-filtered nonfat milk is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
