Many people think that milk
contains much milkfat. Actually it
is a lowfat, beverage, even when
labeled whole or regular,
homogenized, vitamin D milk.
Milkfat levels are seldom above
3.3% and the minimum is 3.25%
milkfat. Milk could actually be
promoted as more than 96% fat
free. An eight ounce glass of
regular (whole) milk provides
about 145 calories and only about
30 milligrams of cholesterol.
Most lowfat milk contains 2%
milkfat, but you can find 1.5% and
1.0% milkfat products in some

Milk , the lowfat treat
markets. In all cases the milkfat
level is reduced, but that does not
cut the calorie content in one-half
or less. This is because the milk
solids containing the calcium and
minerals provides calories, also.
Nearly all lowfat milk is fortified
with vitamins A and D to the
original level prior to the removal
of the fat. Two percent milkfat
milk provides about 120 calories
per eight ounce glass, if not for
tified with added milk solids. One
and one-half percent and 1%
milkfat milk provide only slightly
fewer calories.

calories. Actually it provides
almost 90 calories per eight ounce
glass and about five milligrams of

Include milk in your diet to get
the needed calcium and to prevent
osteoprosis in later years. It makes
little difference in what form you
include milk. To most active
people the few extra calories in two
glasses of regular milk are not
significant in our daily diet. You
may wish to get the equivalent of
your two glasses of milk by eating
cottage cheese, yogurt or other
dairy products.
