be V-ing未來式(即將要…)low-fat(adj.)低脂的as usual如往常
Rhea: Well, people do say that low-fat milk and skim milk are healthier than whole milk because they’re low in cholesterol, but now it turns out that that’s just a myth.
瑞亞：嗯，人們說低脂和脫脂牛奶比全脂牛奶更健康，因為他們膽固醇低，但現在卻發現這只是普遍卻錯誤的觀念。

Ross: So, are you saying that the cholesterol levels in low-fat milk and whole milk are pretty much the same?
羅斯：那麼，你是說低脂牛奶與全脂牛奶的膽固醇值幾乎差不多嗎？
cholesterol level膽固醇值pretty much差不多
Rhea: That’s exactly what I’m saying. And guess what? A new study actually shows that there’s a correlation between drinking milk and having acne. Skim milk especially causes more acne breakouts than whole milk does.

Rhea: It is! Plus, whole milk is more nourishing as it contains more vitamin A, D, E, and K than low-fat or skim milk.
瑞亞：沒錯。另外，全脂牛奶因為含有維生素A、D、E、K，因此它的營養價值比低脂或脫脂牛奶更高。

Ross: In that case, it’s better to choose whole milk just for its nutritional value.
