First, let's take a look at the macros. Each of these are listed in grams and as usual, normalized to 200 calories for easy comparison, so we're always comparing apples to apples.
Coconut milk | Nonfat milk |
Nutrient | coconut milk | nonfat milk |
Protein | 2g | 20g |
Carbohydrate | 5g | 29g |
Fiber | 2g | 0g |
Fat | 21g | 0g |
Monounsat. Fat | 1g | 0g |
Polyunsat. Fat | 0g | 0g |
Saturated Fat | 18g | 0g |
Next, let's take a look at the Vitamin density. These values are shown in units of percent of recommended daily intake. And since we're showing 200 calories worth, this means anything above 10% is good.
Nutrient | coconut milk | nonfat milk |
Choline | 2% | 22% |
Vitamin A | 0% | 57% |
Vitamin C | 3% | 0% |
Vitamin E | 1% | 0% |
Vitamin K | 0% | 0% |

Nonfat milk are a great source of Vitamin A, Riboflavin, Pantothenic Acid. Nonfat milk are an excellent source of Vitamin B12, Calcium, Phosphorus.
And here we see the B-vitamins: B1 (Thiamin), B2 (Riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (Pantothenic Acid), B6 (Pyridoxine)
Nutrient | coconut milk | nonfat milk |
Vitamin B1 | 2% | 27% |
Vitamin B2 | 0% | 97% |
Vitamin B3 | 6% | 5% |
Vitamin B5 | 3% | 42% |
Vitamin B6 | 3% | 20% |
Vitamin B12 | 0% | 156% |
Now, lets look at mineral density. Here we have a lot of important electrolytes and minerals. Once again, units are in percent of RDI, thus for this 200 calorie serving anything above 10% would considered high.
Nutrient | coconut milk | nonfat milk |
Sodium | 1% | 16% |
Potasium | 7% | 26% |
Calcium | 3% | 147% |
