I often see some Chinese medicine doctors against drinking milk, which is really puzzling. Their main point of objecting to drinking milk is that milk is yin and cold...
The word yin and cold, everyone It may feel particularly scary. But I want to tell you: the yin of yin and cold is just the division of the attributes of yin and yang; the cold of yin and cold is just the division of the attributes of cold and heat. Don’t sound like it’s going to be haunted when you hear Yinhan.
Milk is sweet in taste and slightly cool in nature. It can nourish yin and moisturize dryness, replenish deficiency and damage, benefit the lungs and stomach, nourish blood, etc. If you want to say that milk cannot be eaten when it is cold, the following things should not be eaten: lilies, white fungus, fruits, mung beans, bitter melon, pears, bananas, millet, winter melon, watermelon, water chestnuts, purslane, etc. I can’t even list them in one day. over!
Traditional Chinese medicine classifies food as warm, hot or cold. Does that mean half the food in the world is inedible? Moreover, the milk is only slightly cold, not cold. As long as you are not allergic to milk, are not lactose intolerant, and your body is not as cold as ice, then there is no problem in drinking milk.
Of course, if you have polycystic skin or acne-prone skin, I personally recommend drinking less milk and more soy milk.
Traditional Chinese medicine attaches great importance to the products of flesh and blood, and has always recognized medicinal materials derived from animals. But nowadays, there are not many cheap, convenient and nutritious food of flesh and blood, almost only milk and eggs. Denying everything about milk is equivalent to cutting off half of the tonic in life
Besides, mammals grow up drinking milk. If the spleen and stomach are not good, it is better to strengthen the spleen and stomach instead of simply giving up milk, because its negative effects are not Not big. If you are talking to me about food safety, then breathing and drinking water are more important topics
Now we know that milk is drinkable, but with so many milks on the market, which one should we choose? Which one is suitable for you?
Like many people who want to lose weight, they may think that fat-free food is more suitable for them, so they tend to buy skimmed milk.
However, as more and more studies show that skim milk Milk doesn’t seem to be as good as we imagined
According to a report titled “Why skim milk is not as good as you think” published on the Spanish “La Vanguardia” website on November 17, for the past 2 years A behavioral study conducted by thousands of people showed that over a nine-year period, people who consumed whole milk more than once a day were about 15% less likely to be obese than those who consumed skim milk.
Why is this? Isn’t skim milk more conducive to people losing weight? Skimmed milk
The fat content of whole milk is about 3, and skimmed milk uses the density of fat particles to separate them by centrifugation, controlling the fat content below 0.5, and there is almost no fat. , doesn’t it sound very healthy?
In fact, this set of tricks not only removes fat, but also very effectively loses some vitamins A, D, and E dissolved in fat, causing the milk to lose its fat and rich taste
If you choose skimmed milk to lose fat, you may need to take in additional nutrients to replenish the lost vitamins. Is it worth it?
Can we still drink skimmed milk? Of course you can, but I recommend drinking pure milk.
The pure milk we often see is mainly pasteurized milk and room temperature milk
Pasteurized milk uses low temperature Sterilization method, the sterilization temperature is lower than 100 degrees. Pasteurization method will retain more beneficial bacteria in the milk, so pasteurized milk needs to be refrigerated to keep fresh, so the shelf life will be relatively short. Generally speaking, the shelf life is about 5 to About 7 days.
Normal temperature milk is generally sterilized at 135-150 degrees. This temperature will kill bacteria and may also lose some heat-sensitive nutrients, so the shelf life of room temperature milk is relatively long. , usually 6 months or more
How to choose? It depends on how long you drink milk. No matter which one you choose, they are all very rich in nutritional value
The protein and fat of milk can provide you with a feeling of fullness and reduce your desire for snacks, and milk is rich in casein and Whey protein can help synthesize muscles and improve metabolism.
In addition, milk is an important source of calcium in the human body. If protein and calcium are not absorbed for a long time, children may have loose teeth, and adults may have osteoporosis and fractures easily.
So, in our diet, everyone is required to drink a glass of milk or soy milk every day.
