How milk is healthier

Although milk is very nutritious, not everyone is suitable for drinking milk. Let's take a look at the little common sense of drinking milk.

One is not suitable for drinking milk on an empty stomach in the morning. Because fasting gastrointestinal motility when the human body fast, milk nutrients are often too late to be absorbed into the large intestine. In addition, the method of drinking large amounts of milk is not enough, because it will reduce the chance of mixing with saliva in the mouth and is not conducive to digestion and absorption. Before you drink milk, it is best to eat biscuits, pastries, etc., or to drink milk while eating.

Second, drink milk at night is more favorable. Scientific research has found that the calcium metabolism in the human body has a special law: At night, especially at midnight, there will be a “low valley” in the plasma calcium content, forcing the body to replenish calcium in part of the bone through regulating mechanisms. In this way, although the calcium in the blood is temporarily maintained, the calcium in the bone is reduced. Milk is rich in calcium, so a cup of milk before going to sleep can compensate for the body's need for calcium at night.

Third, milk should not be boiled with sugar. Milk is rich in amino acids. Under high temperature conditions, Maillard reacts with lysine in milk and produces a new compound, fructosyl amino acid. This substance can not only be digested and absorbed by the human body, but it will affect human health. Milk is best consumed freshly. If it is too cold, it can be heated.
