Scientific research has shown that regular milk contains more than 200 components, including proteins, milk fat, lactose, vitamins, as well as antibiotics, antibodies, hormones and other enzymes that the human body needs. Undoubtedly, these substances are useful for the child's body during the period of formation and formation. But does the body of an adult need an additional load, which is already slowing down its development?
White and airy
Natural milk is a source of a large number of nutrients. That is why at different times it was used as a treatment for a wide variety of diseases: cholera, scurvy, nerve diseases and bronchitis. Among the many beneficial properties of milk is its ability to remove excess fluid from the body and the presence of a large amount of calcium. In addition, one should not lose sight of the fact that breast milk is the key to good children's health. Simply put, many milk lovers consider it a "white" vitamin, and this is not unreasonable.
But do not forget that heat treatment dramatically reduces the usefulness of the product, which is why it is most often recommended to drink fresh milk.
Of course, there are modern processing methods that allow you to preserve all the benefits of milk. To achieve a high percentage of preservation of the beneficial properties of milk, many manufacturers began to use the method of ultra-high-temperature pasteurization, when milk is heat-treated for a fraction of a second. Thus, it is possible to get rid of harmful bacteria, while preserving the beneficial components of the product.
But with age, the human body loses its ability to easily and quickly assimilate milk, which is why many doctors, despite all the benefits of the product, are of the opinion that adults should not drink "white" vitamin.
In India, it is believed that milk is the only product that promotes the rapid development of fine brain tissue.
Several arguments against
Unlike the inhabitants of India, modern doctors do not recommend getting too carried away with milk in adulthood. This is explained by the fact that milk mainly contains milk sugar or lactose, for the processing of which a special enzyme is produced. At the same time, the body of an adult is designed in such a way that with age, the production of the desired enzyme decreases, thereby complicating the processing of lactose. The consequences are obvious: bloating, milk allergies and abdominal pain.
Therefore, with age, it is not necessary to completely abandon milk, you can either reduce the amount of its use, or replace it with soy milk.
In addition, if you are prone to urolithiasis, milk can contribute to the formation of new stones. And myristic acid, which is found in natural milk, helps the development of atherosclerosis.
Nutritionists recommend drinking milk in small sips, so that the enzymes of the gastric juice can equally evenly get into the milk and digest it qualitatively, preventing the fermentation process.
In addition, milk is very high in calories and contains cholesterol. And the preventive effect of milk in occupational diseases has not been unequivocally proven.
