The misunderstanding of drinking milk
1, drinking more will make you fat?
Milk has the most comprehensive nutrition in natural foods, but this does not mean that drinking milk will definitely gain weight. Milk contains about 86% water, and a bag of 250g whole milk only contains calories 150 kcal, which is equivalent to half a bowl of rice or a can of cola. However, if you eat a packet of biscuits100g, you will consume more than 450 kilocalories.
Milk is easy to make people feel full. Drinking a glass of milk before meals can effectively alleviate hunger and reduce appetite. The total calorie intake in the end is not higher than that when not drinking milk. If you use two cups of milk instead of dinner, you may even lose weight. It should be noted that if you want to drink milk before going to bed, you should reduce the amount of food you eat at dinner to avoid excessive calorie intake.
2, can't drink with juice.
It is normal for protein in milk to precipitate when it meets acid. Even if it is not drunk with fruit juice, it will precipitate when it meets gastric acid in the stomach. The freezing of yogurt is the result of milk protein precipitated by lactic acid bacteria. All kinds of desserts made of milk and fruit have been popular abroad for hundreds of years, and no indigestion problem has been found.
Just note that persimmon, grape, pomegranate and other fruits contain too much tannin, which will reduce the digestion and absorption rate of milk protein after being combined with protein.
