There is an opinion that milk is poorly digestible after 50 years and is harmful to well-being, so it is better to give it up. But is this so?
You can often hear that with age, the human body begins to tolerate lactose – milk sugar – worse. Because of this, it is generally recommended to avoid dairy products, which can cause bloating, gas, and stomach problems. Nutritionist Katerina Kuzina told Vechernaya Moskva whether it is necessary to give up milk after 50 years. She believes that the decision on such a refusal should be made individually. In many ways, recommendations about its necessity are determined by the body’s individual reactions to milk, its ability to digest lactose, Kuzina noted.
“If you do not have lactose intolerance or other health problems associated with the consumption of dairy products, consume them in moderation may be useful,” the nutritionist stated.
The expert noted that a healthy diet in adulthood can be the key to good health, and dairy products can be quite appropriate in it. At the same time, it is necessary to control their quantity and monitor quality, Katerina Kuzina emphasized. If unfavorable symptoms appear after drinking milk (bloating, pain, flatulence, nausea, diarrhea, general malaise), you should consult a doctor and consult. Sometimes milk intolerance can occur due to secondary latcase deficiency, which develops in connection with the disease.
