Concept:
Although disputed, it is widely accepted that the pasteurization process of milk has affects of its nutritional content, notably effects on the reduction of water soluble vitamins, and fat soluble vitamins to a somewhat significant degree. Now although I've never seen any source outright say that whole milk is better, my hypothesis is as follows: whole milk (3+% M.F.) obviously contains more fat than filtered, low fat alternatives. With this, when consuming a high M.F.% milk, there is much more animal fat present in the contents of the milk, allowing for a greater amount of fat soluble vitamins to be retained, therefore, making it the healthier alternative. Again, I haven't seen enough scientific evidence to suggest this is 100% true, but in theory it is sound.
Tldr: whole milk (any high M.F.% milk) is superior for nutrition rather than low fat milk.

Whole Milk Nutrients
Whole milk (3.25% milk fat) is a medium nutrient-dense food, especially rich in vitamin B12 (cobalamin), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin B7 (biotin), calcium, vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid), selenium, and phosphorus, plus more.

Does processing affect the nutrition value of the milk you drink?
Milk naturally contains a unique package of nutrients that are essential for good health, including high quality protein, calcium, B vitamins, potassium and phosphorus to name a few.
