Is whole milk the same as 2 percent?
No
Is 12 percent milk the same as whole milk?
Do you mean 2% milk? There is a difference between 2% and whole milk. 2% contains 2% fat, and whole milk contains about 3.5 to 4% milk.
What is the latest info that 2 percent milk is the same as whole milk?
I have heard of no such information. Whole milk is usually 4% butterfat. 2% milk is - by law - a maximum of 2% butterfat. Based on fat content, they are not, and cannot be "the same".
Does organic milk have less calcium than whole milk?
Basically there is Whole, semi-skimmed and skimmed milk. Organic milk is (I believe) from cows that have not been treated with hormone, vitamin, and antibiotics injections or treated feed. The calcium should be the same?

No, because two percent milk has fat in it.
What makes whole milk?
Whole milk is milk that has not been skimmed and should have the same composition as raw milk. Only a heat treatment should have been done.
How come they call milk low fat 2 percent skim milk and home milk when their from the same cow?
Um, Okay... Milk doesn't come straight from the cow to your milk carton. It gets processed, bleached, pasteurized and all that other good, unnatural stuff. Whole milk has the fat left in it - that's why it's called "whole." But the fat can also be removed to make varying levels of fat content, thus - 2%, 1%, and skim. Whole milk has more like 4-6% fat content.
Is milk acidic?
The only difference between whole milk and skim milk is in its fat content. Whole milk contains apprroximately 3.5 grams of fat per 100 ml. This does not mean, however, that whole milk is less healthy than skim milk, as your body needs a certain amount of dietary fat. Additionally the vitamins contained in milk can only be absorbed if taken with fat. So taking the fat away from the milk also means, as a consequence, that a substantial part of its vitamin content will not be available for your body to absorb and use. So it really depends. If you are overweight and trying to restrict your calory and/or dietary fat intake, the benefit provided by skim milk may outweigh the vitamin loss. But if you are not trying to lose weight I would strongly recommend you drink whole milk, which also has, let's face it, a much better taste!
What element is in dairy and milk objects?
Dairy products contain protein, calcium, magnesium, vitamin A (whole milk), vitamin B12, vitamin D, riboflavin, sugar, fat (excluding skim/fat-free products), and lactose (excluding lactose-free products).
