Goat milk powder is better.
Goat's milk is the dairy product that domestic and foreign nutritionists agree is the closest to human milk, which is not only nutritionally comprehensive but also easily absorbed. Its fat globule size is the same as that of human milk, only 3/1 of cow's milk, protein structure is basically the same as that of human milk, containing a large amount of whey protein, and does not contain some of the cow's milk in the allergy can be made in the heterogeneous proteins, so any system of infants can be accepted goat's milk, especially the weaker intestines, the poorer infants. In addition, goat's milk also contains epithelial cell growth factor (not contained in cow's milk), which is only found in human milk, and it is clinically proven that epithelial cell growth factor can repair the mucous membranes of the upper nose, bronchial tubes, intestines and stomachs, etc. It is beneficial to the patients with respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract. For infants and children suffering from respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases, goat's milk is undoubtedly the best therapeutic milk.
Protein composition: goat's milk protein is slightly higher than cow's milk, in which casein accounts for 75%, α-S1 casein accounted for 1-3% of the total protein, β-lactoglobulin content is lower than cow's milk. The protein content of cow's milk is 2.7% to 3.7%, of which casein content accounts for 85%, the content of α-S1 casein accounts for 43% of the total protein, β-lactoglobulin content is more than 2 times that of goat's milk.
Fat: goat's milk fat globule cells are small, only one-third of cow's milk, unsaturated fatty acids are twice as high as cow's milk, close to the human body fat globule cells are large to saturated fatty acids.
Lactose: both cow's milk and goat's milk.
Vitamins: goat's milk lacks folic acid, the content of 1/5 of cow's milk, vitamin C content of 1.29mg/100g. Cow's milk folic acid than goat's milk is 4 times higher than the content of vitamin C is 0.94mg/100g, much lower than breast milk.
Minerals: goat's milk has more minerals, the total content of 0.85%, calcium, phosphorus content of 20% more than cow's milk, calcium and iron have no antagonism between, calcium and iron absorption rate is high milk mineral content of 0.72%, calcium accounted for 45% of all minerals. Milk calcium and phosphorus ratio is similar to goat's milk, iron content is similar to goat's milk, but milk calcium and iron will interact with each other, thus affecting the absorption of divalent iron.
Acidity and alkalinity: goat's milk is alkaline, cow's milk is acidic.
Epithelial growth factor: Goat milk contains the same active factor as human milk - epithelial growth factor (EGF), which is beneficial to the growth and repair of epithelial cells. Cow's milk has no EGF.
Advantages of goat's milk1, goat's milk is easier to digest and absorb. Goat's milk contains more alpha-lactalbumin and less casein than cow's milk, and its protein is more easily digested and absorbed as it forms a fine clot in the stomach. The fat globules of goat's milk are only one-third that of cow's milk, and contain more unsaturated fatty acids, which are more easily absorbed by the celiac in the small intestine.
Goat's milk advantage 2: goat's milk can lift most of the allergies caused by cow's milk protein. Certain proteins in cow's milk, such as alpha-S1 casein and beta-lactoglobulin, are now recognized allergens. Under normal circumstances, these two proteins can be digested and absorbed by the body, but if the body's digestive capacity is insufficient and these two proteins enter the body in an undigested form, they can cause an allergic reaction. Generally speaking, infants 0-6 months is the most sensitive period, after two years of age, with the improvement of digestive ability and immune function, most children are no longer allergic to milk. Common symptoms of milk allergy are rashes, eczema and gastrointestinal reactions such as abdominal pain and diarrhea.
After years of research by scientists, it has been found that the content of α-S1 casein in cow's milk accounts for 43% of the total protein, while goat's milk accounts for only 1-3%; secondly, the content of β-lactoglobulin in goat's milk is lower than that in cow's milk, and its amino acid arrangement is not in the same order as that in cow's milk, which makes it easier to be digested and absorbed than cow's milk. Therefore, goat's milk can relieve most cow's milk allergies.
Advantages of goat's milk3: Goat's milk can increase the body's resistance to disease. Goat's milk contains the same active factor as human milk - epithelial growth factor (EGF), which is beneficial to the growth of epithelial cells and enhances the body's ability to resist disease.
