Why does this milk receive a Nutri-Score B even though it is low in fat, saturated fat and salt?

The Nutri-Score algorithm also accounts for energy and sugar content; the product provides 47 kcal and 4.8 g of sugars per 100 ml, which keep the overall score at B rather than the highest A grade.

How does the lactose content affect people with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies?

The milk is 100 % dairy and contains about 4.9 g of lactose per 100 g, so individuals who are lactose intolerant may experience digestive discomfort, and anyone allergic to milk should avoid it completely.

Is this semi-skimmed UHT milk suitable for low-carb or keto diets?

With 4.8 g of carbohydrates (all from lactose) per 100 ml, it adds a modest amount of carbs that can fit into a relaxed low‑carb plan but is not ideal for strict keto diets that limit total daily carbs to 20–50 g.

Product Insights

Carrefour's organic semi-skimmed UHT milk is a 1 L brick of pasteurised, homogenised dairy classified in the Milk and yogurt group. It carries a Nutri-Score of B and belongs to NOVA group 1, indicating minimal processing, and it offers low fat (1.6 g per 100 ml), low saturated fat (1 g), low salt (0.1 g) and a modest 47 kcal per 100 ml. However, it contains about 5 g of lactose per 100 g, which may be problematic for lactose-intolerant individuals, and the UHT treatment can slightly alter the fresh-milk flavour.
