From skim-plus to ultra-pasteurized, the dairy aisle is stocked with a wide variety of options. And we're just talking about cow milk. When you add milk alternatives like soy, almond and goat milks to the mix, your selection nearly doubles.
So what is the best milk to drink? Here's how the competitors stack up.
1) Skim Milk
(80 calories, 0g fat per 8 ounces)
Good choice if: You want to lose weight
Skim milk is jam-packed with several vital nutrients including calcium, vitamin A, phosphorus, vitamin D, vitamin B12 and the antioxidant selenium. According to a recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, people felt fuller and ate fewer calories after drinking skim milk than after drinking a fruit drink. Researchers say the proteins in skim milk can reduce hunger. Plus, fat-free milk has 40 fewer calories per cup than 2 percent milk and none of the saturated fat.

I have used skimmed milk earlier when I wanted to lose my weight. There are much better options that I are at my disposal. These days I have been drinking Gooseberry Juice which is not only good for weight loss but also very rich in iron. I recommend this juice to every young and adult citizens.
