What to know about skim milk powder

Skim milk powder is fat-free milk dried to a powder, which leaves behind almost pure milk solids: mostly lactose and dairy protein. Taking out the fat and water does not make it gentler, it leaves the milk sugar an even larger share of the powder than in whole milk powder. It grades very high in lactose and high in dairy protein, so skim or fat-free on the label says nothing about the two things that actually trigger dairy-sensitive people.

Watch for

  • Very high in lactose (E): removing the fat leaves lactose a larger proportion of the powder, so per gram it carries more milk sugar than whole milk powder
  • High in dairy protein (D): concentrated casein and whey drive milk-protein reactions that lactase drops and lactose-free labels do not fix
  • A staple of low-fat and high-protein products, added to yoghurts, protein bars and baking mixes, so fat-free does not mean dairy-free
