During the growth process of a baby, it is necessary to drink milk regularly because the baby needs a large amount of calcium to grow taller. As long as enough calcium is consumed, it can promote bone growth and development. However, what kind of milk is good for a three-year-old baby to drink? Actually, many mothers are not very clear about it, so let me explain it to you next.
Three year old babies should drink 300 to 400 milliliters of milk or dairy products every day. Three year old babies can not only continue to drink formula milk powder, but also choose to drink pure milk, yogurt and other dairy products. Mothers can give their babies their favorite dairy products according to their preferences, and there is no strict requirement to only choose one for their babies to drink.
Yogurt is made by fermenting milk over a period of time and is divided into two types: those that must be refrigerated and those that can be stored at room temperature. If mothers want to give their babies yogurt, it is better to choose the room temperature type because it contains a large amount of beneficial probiotics for the intestines, as well as nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and calcium, which can already meet most of the nutritional needs of babies with a balanced diet. Moreover, drinking room temperature yogurt for babies is not as prone to gastrointestinal problems as drinking refrigerated yogurt. For babies with mild lactose intolerance, it is best to choose yogurt.
Pure milk is usually stored in a sealed box after low-temperature pasteurization and disinfection measures. Mothers do not need to worry about the presence of bacteria, ensuring safety and hygiene. Moreover, pure milk contains more nutrients than yogurt, so it is essential for babies to drink pure milk, especially those with mild picky eating and anorexia. However, it should be noted that pure milk should be stored in a cool place and not exposed to sunlight, otherwise it will cause nutrient loss.
