Some parents wonder about the correct introduction of milk into the baby's diet.

In fact, milk will not harm a child's health if given correctly and monitored by the body's response to this product.
Instructions
Step 1
Cow's milk contains essential vitamins that are essential for a baby's development. It contains a huge amount of organic and mineral elements - proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals, protective substances, enzymes, biologically active substances. The proteins contained in this product are irreplaceable, since they contain special amino acids that are not produced in the human body and participate in the construction of cells, as well as immunoglobulins that protect the body from viruses and infections.
Step 2
The limitation of the introduction of milk into the child's diet is due to the fact that it contains a large amount of phosphorus, which is associated with calcium during metabolism in the body. In children, excess phosphorus is excreted from the body very slowly, and this can also affect the decrease in calcium in their body, and this is already bad. Therefore, you need to give your baby this drink very carefully.
Step 3
For a child under 1 year old, introduce cow's milk into the diet when added to cereals and vegetable purees. And first, be sure to dilute it with clean warm water in a 1: 1 ratio. Then gradually reduce the amount of water. And then use an undiluted product altogether.
Step 4
When the baby is older and reaches the age of 1 year, you can start giving him milk. For this age, 200 grams per day is enough. Even if the child tolerates this product well and does not have allergic reactions, it is still worth stopping at this amount. Do not give him more than 1 glass of milk a day, or you risk harming his health.
Step 5
For a kid over 3 years old, you can try to give goat, mare and deer, which are very useful for the child.
Step 6
A kind of alternative to this product is special formulas for children over 1 year old. They are produced by various manufacturers and are a kind of adapted milk powder.
