What it is

Whole milk contains all of its natural fat and nutrients. Skim milk has had almost all of its fat removed. Both come from cows and are a common source of dairy products.

Why it's used

Whole and skim milk are consumed as beverages and used as ingredients in a wide variety of foods. They provide moisture, protein, and fat (in whole milk) to products like cheese, yogurt, ice cream, baked goods, and sauces.

Health notes

Milk is a source of calcium, vitamin D (often added), and protein. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers milk a major allergen. Regulatory bodies like the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated milk and its components. Evidence suggests milk consumption is associated with bone health, but some individuals experience lactose intolerance or milk allergies.

Allergen info

Milk is one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
