Key ingredients 3
Partly Skimmed MilkGood
Partly skimmed milk is a source of high-quality protein and essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin B12. It is minimally processed, retaining most of its natural nutritional profile. The reduction in fat content makes it suitable for those seeking lower-calorie dairy options.
Benefits
Provides essential nutrients such as calcium and vitamin B12, which are important for bone health and energy metabolism.
Vitamin D3Good
Beneficial ingredient — whole-food or functional value in this product class.
Benefits
Enhances calcium absorption and supports bone health, helping to prevent deficiencies in populations with limited sun exposure.
Vitamin A PalmitateNeutral
Vitamin A palmitate is a synthetic form of vitamin A used to fortify foods. It helps maintain healthy vision and immune function. However, it is not naturally occurring in milk and is added to compensate for the loss of natural vitamin A during fat removal.
Risks
Excessive intake of vitamin A palmitate can lead to toxicity, but this is unlikely from fortified foods alone.
Benefits
Supports vision and immune health by providing an essential nutrient that may be reduced in low-fat dairy products.
