Fat free milk is generally almost neutral. So it will have little impact on your overall acid load. But adding extra calcium makes milk more alkalizing.
Before you use this PRAL Fat Free Milk List, you must understand and agree to PRAL Food Lists Principles
Acid-Alkaline Fat Free Milk List
I list milk with the lowest PRAL index first. Because these have the lowest acid load. So the most alkalizing dairy foods show first. But you can click the food table headings to change sort order.
Main food description | Energy (kcal per 100 g) | PRAL ( 100 g ) | PRAL ( 100 calories ) |
---|---|---|---|
Milk, calcium fortified, fat free (skim) | 35 | -1.02 | -2.91 |
Milk, fat free (skim) | 34 | 0.24 | 0.71 |
Milk, lactose free, fat free (skim) | 34 | 0.24 | 0.71 |
Buttermilk, fat free (skim) | 40 | -0.05 | -0.13 |
Milk, dry, reconstituted, NS as to fat content | 32 | -0.18 | -0.56 |
Milk, dry, reconstituted, fat free (skim) | 32 | -0.18 | -0.56 |
Milk, evaporated, fat free (skim) | 78 | -0.53 | -0.68 |
For the fat free milk category, the average PRAL values are -0.21 per 100 grams and -0.49 per 100 calories. To put this in context, compare with other dairy foods in the Food Category List.
Your Alkaline Fat Free Milk
Remember, factors such as growing conditions, variety, and preparation methods affect all food nutrients. USDA database values are an average of many samples. So your PRAL values for fat free milk will vary from day to day. But they are always an estimate of actual acid load on your kidneys. Which I explain more in the notes about PRAL principles on the category list page.
