Is milk too hot and too cold to drink?
We often say that milk is "liquid gold". No matter what age, drinking milk is the best choice to supplement calcium and protein.

It's freezing now, and the milk is too cold to drink. Some people who have a bad stomach will have diarrhea when they drink cold milk. These people will choose to heat the milk before drinking, but some people say that milk loses its nutrition after heating and should be drunk cold.

In fact, the milk on the market now is strictly sterilized and adopts mature aseptic packaging technology, so there is no need to worry about the problem of excessive microorganisms. After all, milk will inevitably lose some nutrients after heating. If the stomach can accept normal temperature milk, it is best to drink it directly.

If the stomach and intestines are fragile, it may cause abdominal distension, diarrhea and indigestion due to cold stimulation, so you can heat the milk before drinking, but remind everyone that hot milk is also particular.

If you cook directly in a pot, the temperature is too high, which will easily lead to protein degeneration and vitamin loss in milk, resulting in a waste of nutrition. Lactose in milk will also coke if heated for a long time.

Here are some ways to keep hot milk nutritious.

The first one: soak milk in hot water.

This is a method that people often use. You can fill a small basin with hot water above 80 degrees Celsius, and soak the milk in hot water for about 3 to 5 minutes through packaging until the outer packaging is warm.

If you want to heat up faster, you can shake it a few times, or steam it in a pot, or you can effectively control the temperature not to be too high. Insulation is better than direct soaking.

The second type: boiled milk.

It is convenient to boil milk, but the temperature and time should be controlled. Now some health pots are quite powerful, which can control the temperature, or have the function of heating milk, and can control the temperature and time by themselves.

If there is no health pot, you can heat it directly in the pot, but you should pay attention to stirring while cooking, otherwise it will be easy to paste the pot. When the milk is hot enough to bubble and boil, turn off the fire quickly. This can avoid losing more nutrition.

The third type: microwave heating.

It is the easiest and quickest way to heat milk in microwave oven, but it should be heated for about 45 seconds with medium or small fire to avoid nutrient loss. Also pay attention to opening the seal of the package. Sealed containers are very easy to explode when heated in a microwave oven.

In addition, microwave heating food is easy to cause uneven heating, so it should be stirred before drinking.
