1% percent milk and diet

[vicenteguidini]

do you think 1% milk has the same nutritional value as whole milk? I'm trying to cut down on body fat and trying to get the healthiest products , I changed regular butter for olive butter, white bread for brown etc...

If it had the same nutritional value there'd be no point calling it 1%.

Pick up (just to look) a whole milk and a 1% milk. Read the LABEL!

dude if you want to cut down on body fat you have no business eating/drinking any of that

get rid of all milk, all butter, and all bread! the calories in all that shit is crazy high! I don't mess with any of that stuff

I agree with Steve. Dairy and bread are both inflammatory foods and very poor calories. Just eliminate both from your diet all together.

I would eliminate milk all together from your diet.

Use a high quality protein shake instead. That way you get the beneficial whey proteins with none of the extra fat or sugar found in milk.

1 cup of 1% milk - 105 calories, 2.5g fat, 12g sugar, 8g protein
1 scoop of a good quality whey isolate (I have wheytobuildmuscle from n2bm.com in my cupboard) - 120 calories, 1g fat, 2g carb, 24g protein

WAY more protein and way less fat/carbs with the protein powder then milk.
