IS NONFAT MILK THE SAME AS SKIM MILK? IS SKIM MILK A FUNKY FOOD?

Suzanne Somers FAQ
Nonfat milk is the same as skim milk. It may also be called fat free. It is not a funky food, but it is considered a carbo and should only be used with carbos. I always say, check the ingredient list, not the nutritional panel. If there are no added sugars, it is fine. The reason you see sugars in the nutritional panel is because non-fat milk has carbohydrates, which convert to sugar upon digestion. That is why non-fat yogurt is grouped as a Carbo.

ONE OF THE INGREDIENTS IN SKIM MILK IS SUGAR. IS THAT STILL OKAY?

Suzanne Somers FAQ
Your skim milk should not list sugar in the ingredient list. If it does, I would look for another brand. It may, however, list "Sugars" on the nutritional panel. This is because milk has carbohydrates and natural sugars. That is why we list nonfat milk with the Carbos. It is perfectly fine to eat food in the approved Carbos list even if you see Sugars appearing on the nutritional panel.
