What milk powder should the elderly drink?
It is best for the elderly to drink milk powder with high calcium, sugar-free, low fat or skim. Old people usually have insufficient calcium intake, poor calcium absorption and high blood lipid and blood sugar levels.

Therefore, drinking this milk powder is helpful to supplement calcium, and to some extent, it can avoid the rise of blood lipid and blood sugar.

The physiological function of the elderly declines, the function of tissues and organs gradually declines, the hormone level changes, the gastrointestinal function weakens, the calcium intake and absorption are insufficient, and calcium deficiency is easy. The elderly have a great demand for calcium, and the daily intake of calcium is above 700mg. Therefore, drinking 1-2 cups of milk soaked in high-calcium milk powder every day, plus taking some calcium in the diet, can usually meet the demand for calcium. Some vegetables contain oxalic acid, such as spinach, cabbage, etc., which may also affect the absorption of calcium and should be avoided. And it is best to drink it half an hour before meals, which is more conducive to controlling the increase of blood sugar after meals than after meals.
