Milk
What is this food?
AI-assisted
Milk (human) — a liquid dairy drink that provides protein and carbohydrates (sugar), plus some fat and cholesterol. In everyday terms, it’s the milk used as a source of nutrition.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Milk helps support the body’s needs for protein (important for growth and repair) and provides energy from carbohydrates. It also contains fat and saturated fat (1.7 g per 100 g), and a small amount of sodium (19 mg). Since it has sugar (5 g per 100 g) and cholesterol (14 mg), it’s best to fit milk into your day’s total food balance—especially if you also drink other sweetened beverages or eat desserts during snacks.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Use milk as part of your snack or with meals (e.g., 1 glass) rather than replacing all water or plain drinks.
  • If you’re watching saturated fat, choose lower-fat milk when available, and keep portions consistent.
  • Pair milk with fiber-rich foods for better balance (e.g., oats, whole grains, or fruit) to help your meal feel more complete.
  • Check added sugar if it’s flavored milk—plain milk is usually the simpler choice.
