Reconstituted Low Fat Milk

Reconstituted low-fat milk is made by adding water to milk powder. This process is used to create a liquid milk product with a lower fat content. It is a way to standardize milk for use in various food products.

Manufacturers use reconstituted low-fat milk as a base for dairy beverages and spreads. It provides a milky flavor and texture without the higher fat content of whole milk. It is commonly found in flavored milks, coffee creamers, and caramel spreads.

Reconstituted low-fat milk is a dairy product and a source of calcium and vitamin D, if fortified. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers milk and low-fat milk to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Major health organizations do not typically issue specific guidance on reconstituted milk, as it is nutritionally similar to regular low-fat milk. No significant health concerns are associated with its consumption at typical intake levels.
