Whole UHT milk is cow’s milk that has been heat-treated at a high temperature to extend its unopened shelf life. It provides fat, carbohydrate in the form of milk sugars, protein and minerals such as calcium. Per 100g, it contains 3.9g of fat, including 2.4g of saturated fat, 3.2g of protein and 110mg of calcium.
Calcium contributes to the maintenance of bones and teeth, while protein is needed for tissue growth and repair. The saturated fat content is worth noting for people monitoring their intake. Milk sugars are naturally present, mainly as lactose, which some people have difficulty digesting. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
