Children two or three bottles of milk every day, the family also has X cubs, An X Xi, raise X more, and breakfast milk, the child is not tall, what is going on?
”
The milk that the child drinks may not be milk in the true sense, but a milk-containing drink, which does not help the child's growth and development much, and drinking too much will affect the growth and development!
How to distinguish between pure milk and milk-containing beverages?
The essence of milk-containing beverages is the drink, not the milk.
Milk-containing beverages are beverages made from fresh milk or dairy products that have been fermented or processed without fermentation.
The first place in the general ingredient list is not milk, but water! It also adds a lot of sugar and various flavors, and it is not recommended to drink more.
Pay attention to the ingredient list
There is only one raw milk in pure milk, and the ingredients of milk-containing beverages are mainly water, white sugar, fructose syrup, fruit flavoring agents, and only contain a small amount of protein and minerals.
What's the difference between a variety of milks?
There are many types of milk on the market, in addition to pure milk, there are also breakfast milk, high calcium milk, skim milk, children's milk and other kinds of milk.
Breakfast milk
Breakfast milk is generally divided into a variety of flavors, such as oats, dates, walnuts, etc., not only the taste is more diverse than ordinary pure milk, the taste is better, and it also looks more nutritious.
In fact, it is not difficult to see from the ingredient list that breakfast milk is not pure milk, but after diluting pure milk, adding sugar, cereals or nuts, and even adding some flavors, so its nutritional content may be lower than ordinary milk, but the taste will be richer than pure milk.
Skim milk
Skimmed milk, as the name suggests, is to remove the fat from the milk. Some people say that skim milk is good, both nutritious and does not delay weight loss. In fact, while the skim milk is degreasing, the fat-soluble vitaminS, vitamin D, vitamin E, and vitamin K are also removed.
And as far as 300ml of milk is concerned, the difference in fat content between skim and non-skim milk is actually not large. For healthy people, it is not recommended to drink skim milk, if you feel that full milk will be obese, you can choose low-fat milk.
However, for people with three highs, it is recommended to use skim milk.
High calcium milk
The so-called high-calcium milk, in accordance with China's national standard GB28050-2011 "General Rules for Nutrition Labeling of Prepackaged Foods", 100 ml of food with calcium content exceeding 15% of the nutrient reference value of the product, can be marked as high calcium products. That is to say, the calcium content in high-calcium milk should be at least higher than 120mg/100ml.
The calcium content of high calcium milk is indeed higher than that of ordinary milk, but the calcium content of milk itself is very rich, and the increased amount of "calcium" will not cause a huge difference, and the calcium in ordinary milk is calcium lactate, which is very easy to be absorbed by the human body. In high-calcium milk, calcium carbonate or other calcium is fortified, and the absorption rate will be slightly lower.
Children's milk
Children's milk is no higher than regular milk. Many children's milk is based on ordinary milk, and some additional sugar (such as white sugar, fructose, etc.) and other ingredients are added.
At present, there are at least 5 kinds of additives for children's milk drinks sold on the market. In addition to milk, there are many food additives such as sodium citrate, aspartame, xanthan gum, and flavors. Some are even not recommended to be added to children's food, and it is not recommended to give it to children.
Pick the key points – mainly look at the protein content
We generally drink milk to supplement high-quality protein and calcium. In fresh milk, the protein content should be greater than or equal to 2.9g. Therefore, it is mainly to look at the protein content.
In addition, the higher the solids content of non-fat milk, the better the quality of the milk, and fresh milk with a shelf life of 3-9 days can be selected. If you don't have time to purchase regularly, you can choose ambient milk with less protein and calcium loss.
Buy dairy products, the simpler the better, the most common pasteurized milk has the most nutrient retention, is the first choice.
Secondly, according to your own situation, choose milk with certain characteristics. The general healthy population can drink whole milk directly, if it is obese, high blood lipids and other people, you can consider choosing low-fat milk or skim milk.
The dangers of long-term consumption of milk drinks
From the ingredient list, it can be seen that the protein of milk-containing beverages is only about one-third of ordinary pure milk, and the nutritional value is low, not only can not provide children with high-quality nutrients, but also long-term drinking will increase the risk of some diseases and affect growth and development.
dental caries
Sugary drinks have gradually become the main cause of dental caries in contemporary children and adolescents.
corpulent
Obesity in children and adolescents can not only lead to precocious puberty, but also cause a series of metabolic problems such as fatty liver, diabetes, and hypertension.
Picky eaters, partial eaters
The intake of too much sugar and fruity additives is one of the important reasons why children are picky eaters. Picky eating can cause growth retardation.
