Pure milk is high in calcium and protein and is suitable for diabetics to drink 200-300ml per day, but be careful not to add sugar or drink milk beverages that are high in sugar.
Pure milk is a high-protein, high-calcium food that is good for health and a good source of food for people with diabetes, as long as they do not have a dairy allergy or lactose intolerance.
Pure milk contains lactose, which is a combination of one molecule of glucose and one molecule of galactose, so the glycemic index of milk is not high, and as long as you drink pure milk instead of sugar-sweetened dairy products, milk is friendly to people with diabetes and you don’t need to worry about the lactose in it.
People with diabetes who need to control their energy intake are better off with low-fat plain milk. In fact, 300ml of whole milk daily is fine, and less bites of fatty meat is better, but people with diabetes with blood and brain vascular complications are better off with skim milk or low-fat milk.
Pure milk is a good source of calcium, and studies have shown that lack of calcium and vitamin D produce negative nutrition for blood sugar, and adequate calcium facilitates blood sugar metabolism, so milk is appropriate for people with diabetes and can prevent osteoporosis.
Finally, it is recommended that diabetics consume 200-300 ml of milk daily, and that lactose intolerant individuals choose low-lactose softened milk or low-sugar yogurt, with special attention to some sugar-sweetened dairy drinks such as breakfast milk and various flavored milks that are not appropriate.
