Due to Not Drinking Milk At Young

Milk for health benefits is not in doubt. Milk is not only good for the bones but also for the heart. A new study from the University of Illinois, the United States found that teenagers or college kids, who ate less than three servings of dairy products a day were more likely to develop metabolic syndrome. 

"The acquisition of only one out of four college kids who were respondents in this study who meet the recommended intake of dairy products," said researcher Margarita Teran-Garcia, professor of food science and nutrition from the University of Illinois.This means that the condition is quite alarming because three-quarters of 18-25 year old college students who were respondents in this study at risk of metabolic syndrome.Metabolic syndrome itself occurs when a person has three of a number of risk factors for heart disease are obesity (especially abdominal), high blood pressure, high blood sugar and cholesterol levels and lipid unhealthy.  

"And if someone has three of the four risk factors that mean the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes is high," said Teran-Garcia.Although experts believe that the consumption of dairy products may protect against obesity and a host of other health problems that accompany the condition are overweight, in fact there is no expert who can explain the mechanism."It could be that the calcium or protein. Clearly any mechanism, some evidence reveals that milk is an effective means to achieve and maintain a healthy weight," said Teran-Garcia.For that, Teran-Garcia stressed the importance of getting children to eat healthy foods from an early age, and he sees this study as one intervention that can change the mindset of the respondents. 

"We care about them because people in this age group rarely visit the doctor and they might not know anything if they have problems with their weight, blood pressure, lipid levels and blood sugar levels," he continued.Besides targeting the young respondents as in this study is considered as one of the low-rousing approach to promote the importance of maintaining health and decrease the risk of any disease in the future. "That way in a few years, when our respondents have become parents, they will be able to be a good role model for their children," he concluded.
