It has long been known among the people that goat's milk is very nutritious and healthy. Fine fat contained in goat milk is easily absorbed by the body, and its lactose content is lower than in cow's milk. Therefore, goat milk is suitable for people who do not react well to lactose.
Instructions
Step 1
Goat milk contains a large amount of biologically active substances, and protein and fat globules are smaller, so goat's milk is even more acceptable for baby food than cow's milk.
Step 2
Goat milk contains many vitamins and minerals. Cow's milk, of course, is very useful, but in goat's milk the concentration of nutrients is much higher.
Step 3
Rich in calcium and phosphorus, goat's milk is very beneficial for the formation of bones, nails and hair in children, as well as for the metabolism and the normal functioning of the nervous system. This milk is rich in vitamins C, D, A, as well as B vitamins, which are necessary for a growing child's body. Goat milk is also useful due to its high potassium content, without which the normal activity of the cardiovascular system is impossible.
Step 4
However, goat's milk cannot replace a woman's breast milk in any way, since it has a completely different nature of proteins. Human milk belongs to albumin protein products, and goat milk belongs to casein products, like cow milk.
Step 5
But when artificially feeding a baby, goat's milk is extremely useful, as it is an excellent vitamin supplement for a baby. In addition, goat milk practically does not contain lactose, to which infants are often allergic.
Step 6
Experts believe that it is possible to give goat milk to a child from 3 months. Milk should be paired, and for feeding the baby it is diluted in proportions 1: 1 with warm boiled water. The daily norm of goat milk for babies is no more than 50 g, for children over a year old - 100 g, and children from 12 years old and adults should drink no more than a glass of goat milk per day.
Step 7
Goat's milk is not stored for long, as germs develop very quickly in it. Even boiled goat milk sours much faster than cow's milk. Therefore, before giving goat milk to your baby, make sure it is fresh and free of any additives.
