Even whole milk is relatively low in fat and certainly semi-skimmed milk can be labeled as a low-fat food.

Lowering the fat content in milk does not affect the calcium content. So it is possible to get an adequate calcium supply from the low-fat dairy products.

However, low fat milk contains less energy and isn’t suitable for very young children under two years.

Now milk with a 1 per cent fat content (which has almost half the fat of semi-skimmed milk) but with a more creamy flavor is available

This is a good option for those people who want lower intake of fat and hate the taste of skimmed milk.

Over indulgence causes many problems. Milk and cheese are damaging to children. They cause sinus problems, heart problems, allergy, cold, constipation, fatigue, obesity, head ache and dental problems.

Bacteria and the insecticides consumed by the cattle may be present in these food items!
