Because the function of gastrointestinal tract is not perfect when children are young, they need to get nutrition from milk powder, and infant formula milk powder is the closest to breast milk. The protein content of pure milk is relatively high, which is difficult for children to absorb. When children grow up, especially after the age of three, the digestive function of the stomach gradually approaches that of adults, and at this time, they can absorb the nutrition in milk. Moreover, milk is rich in calcium, which is a good source of calcium. Therefore, it is better to drink pure milk after the age of three.
Milk powder is nutritious. You can see that it not only contains high-quality protein, but also is rich in calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium and vitamin ABCD, as well as DHA and taurine which are helpful for children's brain development, as well as nucleotides, galactooligosaccharides and probiotics which can promote children's intestinal health. Looking at the dense nutrient list on the milk powder can, it seems that the clerk in the store is right. Compared with pure milk containing only protein, fat, carbohydrates and calcium, the nutritional value of milk powder seems to be much higher. # 丠丠丠 # Therefore, although pure milk can be accepted in the intestines after the child is one year old, many parents still choose milk powder for their children. Even after the child is three years old, he will continue to drink children's milk powder instead of pure milk. Is it necessary for children to drink milk powder better than pure milk? Parents are advised to know the difference between infant milk powder and pure milk first.
We will find that children's three-stage milk powder, that is, infant milk powder for children aged 65,438+0 ~ 3, is still very comprehensive in nutrition, including various calcium, iron, zinc, vitamins and various nutrients beneficial to children's brain and intestinal immunity. Pure milk does contain only pure protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium and sodium. In other words, the nutritional components of milk powder will be more comprehensive, and children can basically maintain their daily nutritional needs by simply drinking milk powder without eating.
But if children only drink pure milk and don't eat, malnutrition will soon appear. If the child is picky about food or complementary food is not very good, drink milk powder temporarily after one year old to ensure nutrition and promote growth and development.
