Why is MILK so important?
• Calcium-rich: A mineral stored in bones and teeth to support structure.
• Fortified: Vitamins A and D are added to milk.– Vitamin D helps with the absorption
of calcium, which you need for strong bones.
– Vitamin A is important for healthy eyes and boosts your immune system.
• Prevents Osteoporosis: a disease in which bones weaken and become porous instead of solid and strong.
DAIRY
• Lactose: a special sugar found naturally in milk. – Lactose intolerant:
someone who can’t digest this sugar. Alternatives & digestive aids are available.
• Curdle: small curds form if milk gets too hot. The solids separate from the liquid, called whey.
How MILK is processed
• Raw milk: not heated, includes bacteria • Pasteurized: heated to kill bacteria• Homogenized: mechanical treatment
to keep the cream from separating out of milk.
• Fermented or cultured: bacteria are added to change the sugar and acid to make cheese, yogurt and buttermilk.
