There are many myths and misconceptions associated with milk. But it must be admitted that most people do not know which milk is healthier for the body.
Nobody likes boiled milk, which has foam on the surface. However, doctors believe that it is warm milk, not cold milk, that is good for your health.
Warm milk of animal origin is better absorbed, nutritionist, gastroenterologist and PhD Rustem Sadykov told the publication Doctor Peter .
Benefits of Warm Milk
1. As already mentioned, milk is better absorbed after heating.
2. Heating causes denaturation of the lactose protein, which makes it easier for the body to digest.
As a result, people with lactose intolerance do not experience unpleasant symptoms.
3. It has a calming effect, helps you relax and fall asleep faster, which is explained by the presence of tryptophan.
4. Warm milk is better for digestion, as it stimulates the secretion of gastric juice.
5. It strengthens the immune system and helps fight infectious diseases and colds.
How to heat milk
However, strong heating leads to the loss of vitamins, especially those soluble in water.
Long boiling leads to the formation of carcinogens, so milk should not be boiled for more than 3-5 minutes.
The optimal heating temperature is within 37-40 degrees Celsius.
This milk is comfortable for the stomach, does not irritate the mucous membrane and is better absorbed.
