Dissolved in water, it adds milk-based nutrition along with hydration. It does also contain lactose.

The biggest difference from whole-fat is the fat itself. Products vary, but skimmed versions are much lower in fat and energy than whole.
Even under the same name 'goat milk,' you can choose by purpose: adding energy with the fat included, or a lighter way to add milk-based protein and calcium.
