      elderly It is best to eat milk at night

      Experts say that many people have the habit of drinking milk in the morning. In fact, from the perspective of calcium supplementation, the elderly should drink milk at night, preferably before going to bed.

      This is because eating milk at this time catches up with the body's hypocalcemia state. The calcium in milk can be a "timely help", which can not only change the body's situation of not being able to make ends meet, but also does not need to use calcium in the bones; it can maintain blood calcium balance and the bones will not decalcify, which is helpful to prevent osteoporosis and fractures.

      If the elderly can eat 2-3 cups of milk every day, they can obtain the necessary calcium for the body.
