Many people have such a wrong impression, foreigners take milk as water, so the body is particularly good. In fact, not, milk is good, but also to control the amount. Although milk contains about 70% water, but it can not replace water. Whole milk contains about 3% of animal fat, also known as "bad fat", which contains half of the saturated fatty acids, which is considered to lead to atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, thrombotic stroke, breast cancer, colorectal cancer and prostate cancer of the main components. Therefore, you should not drink too much milk, and it is recommended that adults over the age of 3 drink 200-300ml (about one cup) a day. If you want to add more dairy products, you can drink a small cup (100ml-150ml) of yogurt, but the total daily dairy intake should not exceed 500ml.

(2) The thicker the more nutritious

Many people think that the thicker the milk is, the more nutrients the body will get, which is unscientific. Milk so-called "thick", some because parents in the brewing formula milk powder more milk powder less water, want to make the brewing of milk less water, nutrients concentration of some; some other brands of milk taste "thick", which in fact is the business in milk This is actually the business in the milk artificially added flavor, thickeners and stabilizers and other additives, so that the taste of milk has become very strong.

(3) Milk and eggs is the best breakfast

Many people think that milk and eggs are very high in nutritional value, if you eat a breakfast like this, surely a morning full of energy. The fact is just the opposite. Both of them are high in protein, satiety, and often can not eat anything else after eating. In this way, you will be lethargic in the morning, because the body lacks glucose needed for people to work and study, which is a power source to keep people awake and refreshed, starchy foods (such as bread, cookies, snacks, steamed bread, etc.) and fruits can provide glucose for the body. Therefore, it is better to eat milk and eggs separately. Milk, bread with fruits and vegetables or eggs, oatmeal porridge with fruits and vegetables, are better with breakfast.

(4) drink milk on an empty stomach

Many people have the habit of drinking milk on an empty stomach, which is not good. Fasting, the concentration of gastric juice is too high, drink milk at this time, the milk protein will be condensed in the stomach into a block, which will affect the digestion and absorption of protein, but also cause gastric discomfort. Therefore, it is best to drink milk after meals, or eat some starchy food when drinking milk, in order to promote the digestion and absorption of milk. Some people due to "lactose intolerance", after drinking milk will be bloating, diarrhea, this kind of people do not drink a lot of milk on an empty stomach, you can drink yogurt or add the lactase enzyme of low-lactose milk.
