Do you remember how as kids we were forced to gulp down a glass of milk, end our meal with curd, or have lassi?
Well, thanks to that, we are now healthy and strong. White compounds AKA dairy products, are necessary for the nourishment and growth of children.
In this blog, we shall specify why exactly are white products important to be included in the
diet of children and this will also explain why our parents were strict with us when it came to
consuming white products!
Calcium
● Bone Health: Dairy products are one of the best sources of calcium, a mineral essential for building strong bones and teeth during childhood and adolescence. Adequate calcium intake helps prevent conditions like osteoporosis later in life.
Protein
● Muscle Development: Protein is necessary for the growth and repair of muscles, tissues, and organs. Dairy products provide high-quality proteins that contain all the essential amino acids needed for optimal growth in children.
Vitamin D
● Calcium Absorption: Vitamin D, often found fortified in dairy products like milk, helps the body absorb calcium efficiently. It is crucial for bone health and immune function.
Phosphorus
● Bone Formation: Phosphorus works with calcium to build strong bones and teeth. Dairy products naturally contain phosphorus, contributing to overall skeletal health.
Vitamin B12
● Red Blood Cell Production: Vitamin B12, found in dairy products like milk and yoghurt, plays a vital role in red blood cell formation and neurological function. It supports energy metabolism and overall growth.
Potassium
● Heart Health: Dairy products contain potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure and maintain healthy heart function. It also supports muscle function and fluid balance in the body.
With overall health being linked to the consumption of white products, you now get why it was mandatory to finish that glass of milk, that bowl of curd rice, and that last sip of
buttermilk.
Additionally, white products also bring with them a few other benefits:
Probiotics: Fermented dairy products like yoghurt contain beneficial bacteria (probiotics) that support digestive health and strengthen the immune system.
Energy and Nutrient Density: Dairy products are energy-dense, providing children with calories needed for growth and physical activity. They are also nutrient-dense, supplying a range of vitamins and minerals essential for overall health.
Benefits that go beyond just good, white products are sure to be incorporated into the diet of
children. Whether as curd, milk, or buttermilk, consuming white products regularly can keep many diseases at bay while kids enjoy a stress-free and healthy life!
