About Leche desnatada

Leche Desnatada, or skim milk, is a dairy product made by removing most of the cream content from whole milk, resulting in a lower-fat alternative. Originating from dairy consumption traditions worldwide, it is commonly used in European, North American, and Latin American cuisines for drinking, cooking, and baking. Skim milk retains essential nutrients such as calcium, protein, and vitamins like B12, making it a nutritious option for bone health and muscle maintenance. Its significantly reduced fat content makes it ideal for those monitoring calorie or fat intake, although it is less creamy than whole milk and has a lighter taste. Some versions may be fortified with vitamin D to enhance its nutritional profile further. However, it contains lactose, which may not be suitable for individuals with lactose intolerance. Leche Desnatada is a versatile, health-conscious choice for many diets and meals.
