The results of nutrition survey in recent 20 years show that the per capita daily milk consumption of residents in big cities in China is less than 50 ml, and the national average is only 20 ml. "China Residents' Balanced Diet Pagoda" recommends 300ml of milk per day, which is probably the world average and far lower than that in Europe and America.

At present, in the dietary structure of Chinese residents, milk can be recommended as a priority food for calcium supplementation because of its high calcium content and high absorption and utilization rate. There is no need to deify or demonize milk, just treat it as ordinary food with a normal heart.

Advocating rational and moderate consumption of dairy products, China people eat very little dairy products, and the risk of excessive consumption is very small, so there is no need to be overly anxious. Eating a proper amount of milk will not do harm to health. Drinking 250 ml ~ 300 ml of milk every day will not increase the risk of illness, but will bring health benefits.

The difference between whole milk and skim milk

The biggest difference between whole milk and skim milk lies in calories and fat. Whole milk is ordinary milk without fat removal. Its composition is close to pure milk, and its fat content is about 3%. Because of the fat, the rich aroma and silky taste of whole milk are better preserved, and the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, K and other nutrients in fat are also more comprehensively preserved. Therefore, whole milk is suitable for people who need long-term physical exercise or long-term exercise, such as children and teenagers. It can promote physical development and improve memory, such as Telunsu pure milk and Mengniu new whole milk.

Skim milk is processed and filtered to remove fat. After processing, the fat content of low-fat milk is half lower than that of whole milk, but the content of calcium and B vitamins is equivalent to that of whole milk. The fat content of whole milk is generally less than 0.5%. Skim milk may not taste as rich as whole milk because of the removal of fat, so it is slightly "insufficient" in taste.

In addition, the cholesterol content of skim milk is lower than that of whole milk by more than 70%, so skim milk is more suitable for people with three highs, the elderly and dieters. Need to be reminded that the best way to control weight is to "eat less and exercise more", which is often said as "keep your mouth shut and open your legs".
