A glass of milk every morning and evening can supplement protein and calcium. Can I use other milk instead of milk? Attention! Some milk is different from dairy products!
Milk:
Dairy products.
A good source of calcium.
Milk is rich in high-quality protein, which provides lactose, fat, vitamins and minerals. The most well-known nutrition in milk is calcium, and one serving of milk (240 ml) can take in 240 mg of calcium. The average adult needs 1000 mg of calcium a day, and a glass of milk every morning and evening can meet half the amount. Although milk can help us strengthen our bones, not everyone likes to drink it. For lactose intolerant patients, drinking it often leads to diarrhea! This is because the body lacks enzymes that break down lactose, which leads to insufficient digestion and absorption in the stomach and intestines. Nutritionists suggest that you can try to heat cold fresh milk, or drink it slowly for a long time, so as to adapt your stomach from a small amount and gradually increase your tolerance to lactose.
Soy milk:
Beans, fish and eggs.
Soybean isoflavone protects cardiovascular system.
Soybean milk, also known as soybean milk, is a plant source from protein, and it is the first choice for beans, fish and eggs. Soybean milk has low saturated fat, less burden on cardiovascular system and more dietary fiber, which is helpful to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis. In addition, there is a high-profile health care ingredient-soybean isoflavone, which can regulate blood lipids and lower cholesterol, and is a good choice for people who want to protect the cardiovascular system. It should be noted that the calcium content of soybean milk is not high, so it can't replace milk, nor can it be drunk as boiled water, because it has many benefits. Drinking too much will make the fiber difficult to digest, leading to hiccups, bloating and gastrointestinal discomfort. Excessive protein will also increase the burden on the kidneys. It is suggested that 1~2 cups per day is appropriate, and it is healthier to choose sugar-free and low-sugar soybean milk.
Oat milk:
Whole grains.
Dietary fiber lowers cholesterol.
With the rise of the trend of plant milk, people began to drink oat milk. Some people especially like its full graininess, just like eating full dietary fiber. The unique water-soluble dietary fiber in oats can not only increase satiety, but also control blood lipid. Studies have confirmed that it can accelerate the metabolism of cholesterol in the body and help reduce the synthesis of cholesterol. But oat milk is actually made by soaking oats in water, grinding and filtering to make them silky and mellow, and there is no milk added in it. Oats are carbohydrates, and eating too much will make blood sugar unstable. If you have bought bread, rice balls and fried dough sticks for breakfast, it is not suitable for drinking oatmeal milk. Oat milk is recommended with protein food, such as eggs, so that the diet will be more balanced.
