About Milk, nonfat, fluid, with added vitamin A and vitamin D (fat free or skim)
Skim milk — fat-free milk — is ordinary cow's milk with virtually all of its fat removed, leaving a thinner, lighter drink. It looks slightly bluer and tastes less rich than whole milk, but it keeps almost everything else milk has to offer.
Taking out the fat cuts the calories substantially while preserving the protein, calcium, potassium and B vitamins, and — since milk is widely fortified — the added vitamins A and D too. That makes skim a popular way to get milk's nutrition without its fat and calories.
Whether skim or whole is 'better' largely comes down to your goals: skim trims fat and calories, whole brings richness and fat-soluble vitamins. Both deliver the protein and calcium that make milk worth drinking.
