Milk is a nutritious liquid that can be harvested from many animals, but the most commonly consumed milk is from cows. Therefore, unless otherwise noted, the dairy products in this calorie chart are made with cow milk. Dairy contains a good balance of fat, carbohydrates, and protein, and it’s also a valuable source of calcium, riboflavin, and vitamin B12. Whole milk has equal amounts of fat and protein, but other milk varieties like skim have some or all fat removed, reducing calories as well. On the other hand, dairy products like heavy cream and buttermilk have higher amounts of fat. The main component of milk is lactose, a natural sugar that many people’s digestive systems are sensitive to. Vegan plant-based milks, including almond milk and coconut milk, are good substitutes, although they have different nutritional value from animal milk. Check the nutrition label on the carton or can for specific information regarding fats, protein, and carbohydrates in dairy alternatives.
