milk is an important source as it provide nutrition to our body. milk come from different sources and each source provide different nutrition but for babies it is best to start with breast feeding. not only it helps to develop the brain it also produces certain important nutrition that the other variety of milk like cow milk or goat milk can't produce.
some other benefits from drinking milk are like it helps to prevent osteoporosis. now, don't you think it is time to start drinking milk before our bones cracked up?
drinking milk also help to reduce the incidence of tooth decay, hypertension and colon cancer.
However, there are few types of people who will say Nay to milk. who are they?
the first type are those who will say No due to its taste. some people dislike the taste of milk. some say it taste so bad that they can throw up immediately after drinking one. some say that it is their body itself that can't accept milk as part of their fluid consumption.
the second type are those who reject drinking milk too scared they will gain weight. well, to be frank there are no scientific explanation to this fact and so i conclude it as just a human fact unsupported by intensive experiment or analysis.
the third type are those with Lactose Intolerance.
what is Lactose Intolerance?
Lactose intolerance is the inability to digest lactose. Lactose is a type of sugar found in milk and other dairy products. it happens when the small intestine in our body does not produce enough enzyme lactase that helps to absorb foods.and not having enough lactase is known as lactase deficiency. look at the above photograph to have a clearer picture about it.
so, which type do you fit in? for me, i fit into the lactose intolerance type. it is not something that i invent to say in a good manner that i hate milk but rather it is a symptoms that has already develop since i was 3 or 4 years old.
the side effect of it may well be like diarrhea, nausea or flatulence a.k.a gas a.k.a fart but personally for me i will have breathing problem. it is so annoying when it happens especially if the effect only comes at night,when im fast asleep.
but one thing i am not sure of is whether this lactose intolerance can be cured eventually as we grow old. the reason is because these few days i dared myself to drink milk and the good thing is that i manage to drink it and not having breathing problems or other worse side effect. but i chose the one that is low in lactose. i just tried and so far so good though it doesn't taste so good :P
wait... i do think it gave some effects. my chest hurt a bit when im breathing and yes it does cause me somewhat diarrhea but not serious. more to tummy ache that push myself to go to the loo. and to note you all, i have edit this piece as another consistent & persistent symptoms of mine has occurs again ... breathing problems. *sigh*
but one thing for sure is that for those who does not suffer from lactose intolerance, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ....
DRINK MILK!
Do it as a routine. and the result is that ....
you have a healthy bones!
and you can do this!
