1. When is a good time to drink milk?
1. Drinking milk at night is good for rest and sleep.
It is best to drink milk at night, because milk contains L-tryptophan, a biochemical substance that can make people feel tired and sleepy, and a small amount of morphine, all of which have certain sedative and hypnotic effects, especially L-tryptophan, which is the main raw material for the brain to synthesize hydroxyl color. Serotonin plays a key role in brain sleep, which can temporarily inhibit brain thinking activities, thus making people want to sleep without any side effects. Moreover, milk can be absorbed on the stomach wall, and calcium in milk can also eliminate tension.
2. Drinking milk before going to bed is beneficial to the absorption and utilization of calcium.
Most of the calcium taken in dinner is absorbed and utilized by the human body before going to bed. After sleep, especially after midnight, the level of blood calcium will gradually decrease, and the decrease of blood calcium will promote hyperparathyroidism. Hormones will act on bone tissue, so that part of calcium in bone tissue will be dissolved into blood, and the stable balance of blood calcium will be maintained. This dissolution is a self-regulating function of human body, which will become one of the causes of osteoporosis after a long time. Drink milk before going to bed at night. Calcium in milk can be slowly absorbed by blood, and blood calcium can be supplemented to maintain the balance all night, so there is no need to dissolve calcium in bones to prevent bone loss and osteoporosis. Therefore, drinking milk before going to bed is beneficial.
2. Precautions for drinking milk
1, don't eat milk with oranges.
Oranges should not be eaten before and after drinking milk 1 hour. Because once protein in milk meets the fruit acid in orange, it will solidify, which will affect the digestion and absorption of milk. This time is not suitable for eating other acidic fruits.
Milk should not be eaten with eggs.
Eggs and milk are rich in protein, so people need to supplement sugar and some starchy foods on an empty stomach in the morning. If it is all protein, most protein will decompose to provide energy, but it can't supplement the protein necessary for human body.
3. Some taboos for drinking milk
First: Don't drink milk on an empty stomach.
Many people get up in the morning and drink milk directly on an empty stomach, and even eat milk for breakfast without eating other food. In fact, this is a very wrong way to drink. Because drinking milk on an empty stomach is very wasteful, and the human body is hungry, the demand for energy is also relatively large. At this time, the intake of milk will be directly converted into calorie consumption, resulting in a very short stay time of milk in the stomach and intestines, which will soon be excreted through the intestine, which is very unfavorable for nutrient absorption.
Second: it is best not to add sugar to milk.
Many people are used to adding a proper amount of sugar cubes when drinking milk, thinking that this will make the taste more wonderful. Experts tell us that this method is actually very incorrect. Especially boiled milk, you can't add sugar, because the substances and sugar contained in milk will form a substance called fructose lysine at high temperature, which is harmful to human body. In addition, this kind of milk with sugar can easily lead to a large loss of calcium, which is not conducive to calcium supplementation. Therefore, it is best not to add sugar to the scientific way of drinking milk.
Third: Don't eat raw milk.
Is milk eaten raw? Many people think that eating raw milk is the most natural and best for your health. Experts tell us that it is best not to eat raw milk and avoid ingesting some other bacteria.
Fourth: Take out the milk immediately after boiling.
When heating milk, stop heating as soon as you see boiling, otherwise it is easy to reduce nutrients. If milk is cooked for a long time, its color will turn brown, its flavor will be reduced, and its vitamin content will be lost, which is not conducive to our nutritional intake.
Fifth: Don't drink tea or milk.
Tea is a kind of drink that many people in China like. Some people even like to put milk and tea together In fact, this is a very unhealthy method. Experts tell us that milk contains a lot of calcium. If milk and tea are eaten together, some components in tea will affect the body's absorption of calcium, which is not conducive to health.
Sixth: Don't freeze milk.
In summer, many people always like to put milk in the refrigerator to avoid spoilage. Actually, this method is not good. When the temperature of milk is below zero, fat and protein will be separated, which will lead to the appearance of water samples and the taste of milk will become worse. Therefore, if you want to preserve milk, you can keep it fresh in the refrigerator instead of cold storage.
Seventh: Drink milk, not food containing tannic acid and oxalic acid.
If milk is ingested together with substances containing a lot of oxalic acid and tannic acid, it will easily lead to food caking in the body, making it difficult for the body to digest and absorb. There are many common foods containing such substances, such as spinach, lemon, bayberry, water bamboo, etc., so we should pay attention to distinguish them every day.
Eighth: Keep milk away from light.
Milk contains a lot of vitamin B, which is easily decomposed and destroyed if it is exposed to sunlight. Therefore, the daily preservation of milk must choose opaque bottles, and at the same time choose a cool place.
Ninth: the time to drink milk.
What to pay attention to when drinking milk, and the time is also very particular. To get the maximum effect, it is best to drink milk at night, which is not only conducive to promoting physical rest, but also conducive to the absorption of calcium, and has a good effect on preventing bone loss and osteoporosis.
Tenth: You can't cook milk with bronze wares.
In many high-end kitchen utensils on the market, copper is widely used, such as copper milk jugs and heating cups. Bian Xiao suggested that if it is heating milk, it is best not to use bronze ware, because it will destroy vitamins in milk, and copper will react with milk, accelerating the loss of nutrients, which is not conducive to human absorption.
