What it is

Ultra filtered milk is regular milk that has been passed through a fine filter to remove water and lactose. This process concentrates the milk's protein and calcium content. The result is a milk that is sweeter and thicker than regular milk.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use ultra filtered milk to increase the protein content and reduce the sugar in dairy products. It is often found in milk, yogurt, and protein drinks. Its concentrated nature also contributes to a creamier texture in some foods.

Health notes

Ultra filtered milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of protein and calcium. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated milk and milk components. No specific health concerns are associated with its consumption at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Ultra filtered milk is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
