We know how our mothers tend to neglect their health. No matter how much we try, they hardly care about themselves. Even though a simple habit of drinking milk every day can bring so much of change in them and improve their lives, they ignore that too. So, like our mothers did to us when we were young; feed us milk forcibly, we should do the same and make them see the effects of milk;
• Prevent Osteoporosis
Women, especially after 35 years suffer from calcium deficiency, often leading to bone loss. The calcium in milk is particularly crucial for women who are prone to bone degradation. Daily calcium needs can be met by having two and a half to at least four servings of milk or other dairy products in a day. As for the equation, one cup of non-fat milk contains almost 299 milligrams of calcium.
• Managing Weight
According to the latest report by the ‘Journal of American College of Nutrition’ increased dietary calcium was linked to a reduction in body fat, particularly body weight. The study suggests that the maximum benefit can be obtained from the consumption of the amount of calcium advised and not by exceeding the recommended the dairy intake.
• Reduces Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
If your mom hasn’t reached Menopause and suffer from PMS, adding milk to the diet can help. Presence of Vitamin D in milk happens to lessen the risk of getting premenstrual syndrome (PMS).
• Fighting Tooth Decay
Consuming milk can lessen oral acidity, which is one of the contributing factors for decay. Similarly, milk stimulated saliva flow, thereby enabling your mouth to fight against decay. In addition, drinking milk reduces the chance of plaque formation and results in fewer cavities only.
• Good Sleep
Drinking a warm glass of milk before bed can help in falling asleep fast without having to do many struggles. This is because milk contains a special hormone, namely melatonin, that helps in regulating the sleep-wake cycle.
Well, there are more to the list of benefits too such as, regular consumption of milk has been linked to lessening instances of low blood pressure, protection against developing Type 2 diabetes and colon cancer. Also, drinking two to three glasses of milk a day has also been related to a reduced chance of heart attack plus stroke in adults.
