can milk be drunk? For a long time, natural medicine directly named milk, cheese and eggs as the three high allergens of the body. If you have allergies, you usually don't need to test allergens. If you don't eat these three kinds of foods directly, your body will be relieved immediately.

Some experts and scholars think that milk is for calves, not people. Many people in Taiwan Province suffer from lactose intolerance, and milk fat particles are large, which is the main reason why many people have diarrhea that is difficult to digest. In addition, fresh milk comes from pregnant cows. In order to increase the milk yield, dairy farmers can legally add artificial estrogen (Hormone), antibiotics and growth hormone to the feed. These chemicals that we drink with milk may also affect our health.

good fresh milk with pure fragrance?

In Taiwan Province, fresh milk especially likes to emphasize its richness, purity and fragrance. Friends who travel to Taiwan Province from abroad often say to me, "The fresh milk in Taiwan Province is so strange and tastes so thick ..." When I was studying in the United States, the fresh milk I drank was thin and light, which was really very different from now. Originally, for the sake of high purity, milk was added with many emulsifiers, whipped cream and thickener.

There are also a lot of flavored milk and long-lasting milk advertised in the market. In addition to indicating that the proportion of raw milk or milk powder must be more than 5%, we should also pay attention to whether the manufacturer will add emulsifier, thickener, essence, pigment and synthetic corn syrup to improve the taste of milk.

Many people who are afraid of obesity also mistakenly think that choosing low-fat or skim milk powder can reduce fat intake. In fact, this concept is very incorrect. The reason why milk is fragrant depends entirely on fat. Drinking skim milk for a long time will affect women's ovulation. There is also the flavor of skim milk because it is monotonous. In order to make it easier for ordinary people to eat, many additives are often added to adjust the flavor.

If you want to drink milk, it is recommended to choose full-fat fresh milk. A cup of 24 ml whole milk has about 7.5 grams of fat, while eating 1 grams of meat has 2 grams of fat. It can be seen from here that it is not efficient to cut off the fat of milk. Moreover, the calcium in milk must be absorbed by fat-soluble vitamins A and D. If the fat in milk is removed, it is not conducive to calcium intake.

buy canned milk powder instead of fresh milk? In fact, there are also many problems. Canned milk powder is advertised as nutritious and high in calcium, but the actual spot check shows that the milk content is only 5% to 7%, and most of the rest are supplemented with high-calorie maltodextrin. What is maltodextrin? It is a widely used food additive. Adding it to milk powder can increase the volume, prevent caking, make it easy to brew, and increase the thickness. It has no nutrition, but the calories are the same as sugar, and the price is only one third of that of milk powder. Therefore, if maltodextrin is added to the milk powder advertised as low fat, it will have higher calories than ordinary milk.

Many people mistakenly think that drinking more milk can supplement calcium, but they don't know that most fresh milk on the market is purchased from different pastures, and then sterilized by high temperature. The nutrition of milk actually comes from cheese protein. As long as the temperature exceeds 62 degrees Celsius, casein is very easy to be destroyed, including calcium and enzymes in milk.

Many milk powders have unclear labels and confusing names, which mislead people into thinking that they will be nutritious after drinking, which is obviously suspected of deceiving consumers. In particular, women who love beauty are afraid of being fat, and silver-haired people who pay attention to health care even choose low-fat and high-calcium milk powder or specially fortified calcium milk powder as a nutritional supplement for their health.

In fact, many calcium components in dairy products are added, so it is particularly important to distinguish the source of calcium in the label clearly. Generally, it can be divided into calcium lactate, calcium carbonate and other calcium. Calcium lactate will be absorbed by the human body, but the cost is high, and manufacturers are usually reluctant to add it. If calcium carbonate and other calcium are added, it will not help the human body much, even the human body can't absorb this calcium at all, and eating more will cause a burden. Therefore, dairy products advertised as high in calcium must clearly identify the source of calcium.

Is it easy to lack calcium without drinking milk? In fact, tofu, bean skin, soybean milk, black sesame, kale, cabbage and nine-story tower are also rich in calcium. As long as you supplement these foods, you can also get the calcium you need.

how to judge whether there are too many additives in fresh milk? Buy fresh milk, put it outside at room temperature for three days, if it won't turn sour and sour, don't buy it. Or put different brands of fresh milk indoors without opening the lid, the fastest bad indicates the highest enzyme activity, which can be used as an indicator for the next purchase.
