Myth
#1: Two-Percent Milk Is Much Lower In Fat than Whole
Truth: The labeling of milk makes this one a common mistake.
While 2% milk sounds like it would be much lower in fat than whole milk, in
reality whole milk contains roughly 3 percent fat, not much of a difference.
“A low-fat food is defined by having 3 grams of fat or less per serving and
2% milk has 4.9 grams of fat per serving,” says registered dietitian Keri
Gans, author of "The
Small Change Diet".
She recommends opting for nonfat milk.
