The calcium rich in milk can effectively degrade human fat, reduce fat deposition and maintain normal weight. Experts from the Nutrition College of the University of Tennessee found that when the calcium content in the human body is low, a hormone called calcitriol will be secreted, which can promote the production and storage of fat. But calcium can inhibit the production of this hormone, thus reducing the production of fat and accelerating the burning of fat. The calcium intake through milk is twice as much as that through other ways; At the same time, milk contains amino acids that promote muscle growth. Therefore, if you eat more dairy products, you can lose more fat than muscle.
Drinking milk generally has no effect on losing weight. Drinking milk can improve immunity and supplement calcium, because milk is very rich in nutritional value. If you want to lose weight, you'd better control the total calories in your diet. At the same time, you should not eat foods rich in cholesterol. You should strengthen physical exercise and burn body fat.
Drinking an extra glass of milk or eating a small piece of cheese (containing about 300 mg of calcium) every day can reduce abdominal fat by 1.3 cm and body weight by nearly one kilogram. The researchers say there is reason to believe that the same result will happen to boys. Therefore, people should be encouraged to add more dairy products to their daily diet, which will help them control their weight by changing their lifestyle.
Girls with high calcium intake are lighter than girls with low calcium intake. Previous studies on animals, adults and young children have also reached similar results, but this is the first time that such results have been obtained from the study of young girls. These results support the view that calcium (especially calcium from dairy products) helps to control weight and fat.
