How many calories are in breast milk?

Milk is sold in the market with varying amounts of fat in it. Whole milk is milk without any of the fat removed and is 3.25% fat by weight. Skimmed milk or fat free milk has no fat at all, ie, whole milk minus all the fat. Half and Half is half milk and half cream. And then there are 1% and 2% reduced milk. 2% milk contains 2% of fat by weight, and 1% milk contains 1% of fat by weight. So, whole milk contains 1.5% more fat that 2% milk and 2.5% more than 1% milk. Milk fat also varies by breed which can be up to 6%. The reason that commercial milk runs in the 3.5% range is because the primary breed used by most dairies in the US (Holstein) produces milk in that range.
