Milk is very common in our lives. There are many varieties of it. Drinking a little milk before breakfast or going to bed at night is very good for children, middle-aged and elderly friends.

Some people think that nuts should not be eaten while drinking milk. In fact, there is no scientific basis for this.

Because the nature and composition of milk basically do not conflict with the nutrition of nuts. Nuts are rich in nutrients, high in protein, oil, minerals, and vitamins, and have excellent effects on human growth and development, strengthening physical fitness, and preventing diseases. Nuts work better with milk. Let's take a look at some of the main health benefits of milk and nuts.

1. Scavenge free radicals

Free radicals are very active and will react with cell tissues and DNA in the human body, resulting in toxicity and damage. Studies have shown that some nut foods such as sunflower seeds have a strong ability to scavenge free radicals, and its effect can be compared with that of strawberries and spinach.

2. Reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes in women

Researchers from the Nutrition Department of the Harvard School of Public Health conducted a 16-year follow-up survey on 84,000 women aged 34 to 59 in 11 countries.

The results show that eating more nuts can significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. They believe that nuts are rich in unsaturated fats and other nutrients that help improve blood sugar and insulin balance.

3. Reduce the rate of sudden cardiac death

Because certain components in nuts have anti-arrhythmic effects, eating nuts is significantly associated with a reduction in sudden cardiac death after controlling for known cardiac risk factors and a reasonable diet.

Compared with those who seldom or never ate nuts, those who ate nuts 2 or more times a week had a lower risk of sudden cardiac death and death from coronary heart disease.

4. Regulate blood lipids

In 2002, a professor at Peking University School of Medicine took 85 patients with hyperlipidemia as subjects. They took 75 grams of American almonds every day for 4 weeks and observed their blood lipids.

The results showed that after taking almonds, the total cholesterol and apolipoprotein B in the serum of the subjects were significantly decreased, and the apolipoprotein A1 was significantly increased.

It shows that American almonds rich in monounsaturated fatty acids have a good regulating effect on blood lipid and apolipoprotein levels in patients with hyperlipidemia.

At the same time, for friends whose sleep quality is not very good, drinking a small amount of milk before going to bed can also play a certain role in calming the nerves, so it will have a good sleep aid effect.

However, after drinking milk, you should rinse your mouth or brush your teeth in time to avoid various oral diseases caused by milk stains remaining in the mouth for a long time.

To sum up, you can eat a few nuts while drinking milk, and you can also whip the nuts and milk together into a fine slurry. Milk contains a variety of amino acid components and calcium, and then choose your favorite nuts.

After blending the milk and nuts, it not only has the fragrance of nuts but also the taste is acceptable to most people.
