About White milk

White milk, often referred to simply as milk, is a nutrient-rich beverage derived primarily from cows, though variants from goats, sheep, and plant-based sources are also common. Traditionally associated with Western cuisine, it plays a foundational role in breakfasts, baking, and culinary creations worldwide. Milk is an excellent source of calcium, which is vital for strong bones and teeth, as well as essential vitamins like D, B12, and riboflavin. It contains high-quality protein, supporting muscle growth and repair. While its fat content varies between whole, reduced-fat, and skim milk options, consumers seeking heart health might opt for lower-fat varieties. However, some individuals with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies need alternatives. Despite its health benefits, moderation is important due to its potential to contribute to calorie intake. Milk remains a versatile and wholesome choice in promoting overall well-being when included as part of a balanced diet.
