According to the food labelling laws that are issued by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, a food is considered “cholesterol free” when the composition of that food has “less than or equal to 3 mg of cholesterol/100g serving” *. Natrel Fine Filtered and Lactose Free Skim milk contain 2 mg of cholesterol per 250 ml serving, making it an excellent compliment to a cholesterol-free or reduced-cholesterol lifestyle.
