Can children drink pure milk?

It is helpful for children to drink some pure milk in their daily life to supplement some calcium in their body, but only children over three years old can drink pure milk in their daily life. Children under three years old should drink formula milk. I hope mothers can pay attention to this in their lives. Children who often drink pure milk can supplement the protein and fat needed by the body as well as some necessary trace elements, which is helpful for their health.

Children can drink some pure milk in their daily life, but they cannot drink it often, because frequent drinking will lead to iron and vitamin deficiency in the body, which has a great impact on the health of the body. Drinking some pure milk in your life is really good for supplementing the body's nutrients.

Children under 3 years old are best fed formula. Drinking pure milk frequently can easily lead to iron and vitamin deficiency in the body. After being boiled at high temperature, the anti-anemia factors of folic acid and vitamin B12 contained in pure milk will be greatly lost, and vitamin B12 can only be smoothly absorbed under the action of mucin in the stomach. However, the lack of mucin in the baby's stomach will cause folic acid and vitamin B12 deficiency, leading to anemia.

It is generally recommended to feed babies with pure milk after the age of three. Although the protein content of pure milk is higher than that of breast milk, 4/5 of it is casein, which is difficult to digest. There are fewer unsaturated fatty acids in milk, larger fat globules, and a lack of lipolytic enzymes, which makes it difficult to digest and absorb. The total amount of calcium and phosphorus contained in milk is higher than that in breast milk, but the ratio of calcium to phosphorus is inappropriate, which makes it difficult to absorb. Formula milk is generally recommended before the age of three.

It’s not that pure milk is difficult to digest and absorb, but the fear of allergies. Children can drink milk after the age of 1, starting with small amounts as long as they are not allergic to it. Sour milk has no allergens and can be eaten after 8 months. But it is still recommended to feed formula milk, because it is more nutritious after all. In fact, babies should eat formula milk before they are three years old. Pure milk and yogurt are not suitable for babies. This is because babies have weak gastrointestinal tract and poor digestion and absorption abilities.

The article introduces in detail the advantages and disadvantages of children drinking pure milk in their daily lives. I hope that mothers can have a certain understanding after reading it, which will be helpful for you to feed your baby. Children need more nutrients during their physical development stage, so we recommend that everyone should pay attention to their children's nutritional balance in life.
