Cow's milk has four times more calcium and three times more protein than human milk, but as experts say it is the right food for a calf but not for a baby of just months.
In fact, Pediatricians recommend introducing whole milk from the first year.
Before that age, the baby's digestive system is not yet prepared to tolerate it, causing damage to their health.
Before the year, a child needs carbohydrates and nutrients that benefit the development of the brain and nervous system.
AdvertisingAlthough the best for at least the first six months is breast milk, which contains everything necessary for the development of the baby, the alternative option is formula milks that contain the right nutrients at each stage.
Cow's milk has low iron content. The dose it provides is 0.45 mcg / ml of iron, too little to provide the child with optimal development.
As a result of this lack of iron, anemia can occur, a disease that could lead to health problems for the baby and the future child.
On the other hand, whole milk contains a high level of low-quality saturated fats that can cause problems of high cholesterol and even more serious, because when accumulating in the blood vessels increase the risk of heart attacks in the future.
There are mothers who choose whole milk for its easy preparation and for being cheaper than continuation milk, but in these matters it is not good to think about saving and comfort but the health of the baby.
