The main differences between skim milk and whole milk are the fat content and fat-soluble nutrients.
Skim milk has a lower fat content and a corresponding reduction in calories, so it is more suitable for patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as **, lipid diarrhea, and hyperlipidemia, or older people. For children and people with emaciated bodies, it is advisable to choose skim milk carefully so as not to affect its normal growth and development. However, as skim milk removes most of the fat, it may appear bland in taste, and some people may find it astringent.
In contrast, whole milk is more nutritious and contains more saturated fat, which helps to provide satiety and meet the body's fat needs. In addition, fat plays an important role in the flavor of milk, and generally speaking, the higher the milk fat, the stronger the milky flavor and the silkier the taste. Whole milk is suitable for teenagers and emaciated people.
Overall, the choice between skim and whole milk depends on an individual's health status, nutritional needs, and taste preferences. When choosing, you can decide according to your actual situation and the advice of your doctor or dietitian.
