About Skim Milk (Non-Fat)

One cup of non-fat skim milk provides approximately 83 calories, 8.3g of protein, 12.2g of carbohydrate, and only 0.2g of fat. It retains milk's protein, lactose, calcium, and other water-soluble nutrients after most milk fat is removed.

Vitamin D values assume a fortified product. People who need to restrict lactose should choose lactose-free milk rather than assuming skim milk is lactose-free.
