Benefits of milk

Do you daily drink a glass of milk? If yes, then you are doing a good investment for your old age and if no, then you are depriving yourself from a diet that is going to benefit you at every turn of your life.
Milk is not only a complete diet but it also  provides a shield against the diseases. According to the research of World Health Organization, its very important to drink at least one glass of milk daily. From it you can get calcium and other nutrients that are the need of your body. Calcium is responsible for healthy white teeth and strong bones.Vitamin D in it is beneficial for strong bones too.
According to the research children of four to eight years old needs 800mg of calcium daily and this need can be fulfilled by drinking two to three glass of milk without cream daily. Some kids do not like drinking milk so the mothers can give then other dairy products to meet their calcium needs like yogurt or custard or any fruit shake.
If your age is between nine to eighteen years old you need 1300 mg of calcium daily because the growth of bones are faster in this age interval. Instead of milk you can take green leaves vegetables as a source of calcium but the better and easy  source is milk..
Acidity and the burning of chest can be cured with the help of milk because the milk has the ingredients that make Alkali and for which the stomach has to use acid in it, to digest it.That is how the acidity of the stomach is cured with the help of milk.
Some people feel it difficult to digest it. The main factor of it is, some people dont have the habit of drinking milk and so once after a long interval they drink it, they feel uncomfortable to digest it . Dont use it after  having your meal and avoid putting ice in it.
Remember milk is not made to make a cup of tea, its an inestimable diet so get up, drink a full glass of milk and make it as your habit.
