Secondly, adults drinking baby formula can cause gastrointestinal discomfort. This is a digestive disorder caused by the ratio of milk powder ingredients and the unequal nutritional needs of adults. The protein content of infant formula is about 1/3 of that of fresh milk, while the lactose content is very high. The main source of energy for infants is lactose, and the stomach and intestines are extremely strong at digesting lactose, and weak at digesting protein.
Adults, on the contrary, are far less capable of digesting lactose than infants, and need to supplement the main proteins and vitamins, etc. Therefore, adults drink high lactose content of infant formula, not only the nutrient absorption is not in place, but also cause lactose indigestion, manifested in bloating, diarrhea and other symptoms.
Experts remind, adults drink dairy products, preferred milk. Secondly, ordinary adult milk powder is also more suitable for adults to drink. If there is a mix of baby formula not finished, worried about waste, adults temporarily drink it will not be too big a problem. If you have diarrhea, bloating and other allergic reactions, it is better not to drink.
