Why do you have to drink milk every morning?

Although milk is considered a sacred drink by some for breakfast, some consider it their enemy, but apart from the benefits of milk that we all know there is a reason why you will consider it your favorite morning drink, and its new importance comes in breakfast that it helps in controlling blood sugar, for diabetics Of the second type, and helps to feel full throughout the day, which makes it useful for people with obesity.

The study was conducted by researchers at the University of Guelph and Toronto in Canada, and their results were published on Monday in the Scientific Journal of Dairy Science.

To arrive at the results of the study, researchers examined the effects of high-protein milk and high-carb breakfast cereals on blood glucose, feelings of satiety, and food consumption later in the day, in a study of people with type XNUMX diabetes.

The researchers found that the milk that was added to the breakfast cereal lowered the concentration of glucose in the blood after eating, and also led to a decrease in appetite throughout the day, compared to the group that did not eat the milk.

The study indicated that the process of digesting milk and casein proteins, which are naturally present in milk, release stomach hormones that slow down the digestion process, increasing the feeling of fullness.

The digestion of milk proteins achieves this effect more quickly, while casein proteins provide a long-lasting effect of satiety.

“Metabolic diseases are on the rise globally, most notably type XNUMX diabetes and obesity, so there is a great need to develop nutritional strategies to reduce their risks to enable patients to improve their personal health,” said lead researcher Douglas Goff.

He pointed out that "this study confirms the importance of drinking milk at breakfast time to aid in the slow digestion of carbohydrates and to help maintain low blood sugar levels, so its results should encourage the necessity of including milk in breakfast."
