What is milk powder?

Powdered milk is dehydrated milk. That is, normal cow’s milk from which the water has been removed through a series of procedures to obtain a powder consistency.

What is the main benefit of milk powder? Having been separated from the water, powdered milk preserves its nutrients much better, including calcium and proteins.

What are the differences between milk powder and liquid milk?

Powdered milk maintains all its nutritional properties until it is mixed with water, while liquid milk loses its properties as soon as it’s opened.

Liquid milk has a much shorter shelf life than powdered milk. An opened carton of milk lasts about a week, while powdered milk keeps for much longer.
