Milk is undoubtedly a useful and necessary product for a person. The assimilation of milk, the speed of its digestion and nutritional value are strongly influenced by the temperature of the drink. The most useful is fresh milk, that is, directly from under the cow, it has antimicrobial properties, contains a huge amount of vitamins and trace elements, is easily absorbed and processed, and has a beneficial effect on the immune system. From the above, we can conclude that the healthiest milk is warm, but what about those who like a cool drink?
After any product enters the stomach, enzymes from the gastric juice begin to act on it. When cool milk and stomach secretions are mixed, curdling occurs, that is, protein flakes and milk fat fall out. The rate of the process is strongly influenced by the acidity of the stomach, with increased - milk curdles much faster, while reducing the amount of hydrochloric acid and pain relief for peptic ulcer diseases. Under such conditions, the temperature of milk should not be lower than 35 - 40 degrees. People with low stomach acidity are not recommended to drink milk of any temperature at all, since milk does not curdle and enters the intestinal section unprocessed
Nutritionists and gastroenterologist concluded that cold milk should not be drunk, because when it gets into the stomach, it turns into a heavy sticky substance that settles on the walls of the gastrointestinal tract and eventually turns into toxins, which naturally has a negative effect on the physical the state of the whole organism. Over time, persistent diarrhea and indigestion may develop.
It takes a lot of energy to digest a cold drink. After the curdling process has taken place, the remaining serum is absorbed into the blood, and the cooled protein flakes remain undigested in the stomach for a long time, also causing a malfunction in the organs of the gastrointestinal tract.
In addition to intestinal disorders, cold milk can often cause sore throats and, in severe cases, even sore throat.
The fact that milk is useful is indisputable, only it should be consumed warm and separate from other products.
