Semi- Skimmed Milk Powder

Semi-skimmed milk powder is made from cow's milk from which most of the water and fat have been removed. The milk is pasteurized, then concentrated by evaporation before being spray-dried into a powder. It is a source of protein and calcium.

Manufacturers add it to foods to provide a milky flavor and texture, and to increase protein content. It is often used in baked goods, confectionery, dairy products, and processed meats.

Semi-skimmed milk powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of nutrients like calcium and protein. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated milk and milk products, but specific evaluations for semi-skimmed milk powder as an isolated ingredient are not typically detailed. Typical consumption as part of a balanced diet is not associated with adverse health effects.
