ah interesting, I tended to pick whole milk on the assumption the fat wasn't doing anything bad and it tastes nicer
but first search result suggests whole milk 95% of the time, then skimmed if replacing a recovery drink. as you said, the fat may slow protein usage

Seem to remember a sports nutrition person saying skimmed or semi-skimmed milk is good. Same protein content but the fat in whole milk isn’t doing anything useful, may even slow absorption of sugars and protein.
