1. Fat content: The fat content of whole milk is usually around 3% to 3.5%, and may even reach more than 4%. Skim milk, on the other hand, reduces the fat content to below .5% by mechanical or chemical treatment, which significantly reduces the fat intake.
2. Nutrients: Whole milk contains not only fat, but also various nutrients such as protein, calcium and vitamin B12, as well as fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A and vitamin D. However, skim milk may lose some fat-soluble vitamins during degreasing, resulting in its relatively low nutritional value.
3. Taste: Full-fat milk usually tastes more fragrant and full of milk because of its high fat content. Skim milk, on the other hand, is relatively light in taste and mild in flavor.
4, calories, because the fat content of skim milk is low, its calories are relatively low. Whole milk has higher calories.
5. Suitable for people, whole milk is more suitable for children who are growing up or engaged in a lot of physical activities, and people who need to supplement energy and increase fatty acid intake. Skim milk is suitable for people who need to control calories and reduce fatty acid intake, such as patients with hypertension and hyperlipidemia, or people who are losing weight.
