The benefits of drinking milk
Milk is rich in nutrients, suitable in composition, and easy to digest and absorb. It can be called "all-nutritious food" and is a good source of high-quality protein, calcium and vitamin B2 for human body. If you are not allergic to milk and are not lactose intolerant, it is good for you to drink milk for a long time.
First of all, milk is rich in calcium. Every 100 ml of milk contains 104 mg of calcium. Moreover, lactose and vitamin D in milk can also promote the absorption of calcium, which is a good source of calcium for human body. At the same time, milk is also very convenient to drink. Whether at home or traveling, you can get more than 200 milligrams of calcium by drinking a box of milk, accounting for about one-third of the recommended daily amount. Adequate calcium intake is helpful to promote the growth and development of children and prevent osteoporosis in the elderly.
Secondly, milk also contains 3% of high-quality protein, and about 9 grams of protein can be obtained from 300 ml of milk every day, which is good for improving immunity. Moreover, drinking some milk when eating staple food can also slow down the digestion speed, which is also beneficial to reduce the postprandial blood sugar response.

As a nutritious food, milk is rich in high-quality protein and calcium. A box of 250ml calcium contains about 9g of high-quality protein and 250mg of calcium. An adult needs 50-70 grams of protein a day, of which high-quality protein accounts for half, that is, 25-35 grams. A box of 250ml milk can provide 9 grams of high-quality protein, which can satisfy one quarter to one third.
An adult needs 800 mg of calcium a day, and 250 mg of calcium provided by a box of 250ml milk can meet more than 30%. Besides high-quality protein and calcium, milk also contains other vitamins and minerals, which is a nutritious food. Drinking milk for a long time can get more nutrients, more high-quality protein and calcium, which can make the body strong and reduce the probability of osteoporosis.

How to choose good quality milk?
First, look at the origin of milk. The quality of milk has a great relationship with the variety of dairy cows and the stocking pipeline. There is no doubt that good milk is produced by high-quality dairy cows and natural pastures.
The packaging pipeline, processing pipeline and the equipment of the manufacturer of milk are also the key to determine the quality of milk, so the milk produced by the milk manufacturers of big brands is naturally better than that of unknown brands.
Second, look at the ingredients list of milk. Raw milk, which ranks first in the ingredient list of milk, is much better than water, and some so-called milk with fruit juice can only be regarded as milk beverage and not milk.
The protein content of milk is the key to measure the quality of milk. Generally, the protein content of domestic milk is around 3%, and the higher the content, the better the quality of milk. The sterilization pipeline of milk is also the key to measure the freshness of milk. Nowadays, many fresh milk has a shelf life of seven days, and pasteurization is adopted. This kind of milk retains more active substances in milk, so it tastes more fragrant and has better nutritional value than milk with a long shelf life.
