ASK A NUTRITION PROFESSIONAL: IS MILK GOOD FOR KIDS?
Expert opinion from Cassia D Muller

Yes, it's great for kids. Milk, especially whole milk, is rich in calcium, which acts directly on the formation of bone mass, and also in vitamins such as A, which are very important for the development and improves vision, and the B vitamins protect against anaemia, help in the growth and strengthening the immune system.

Milk could be a good source of calcium for kids. During growth, the adequate supply of this nutrient is essential. However, milk is not the only source of calcium. We can find calcium in the rest of dairy products such as yogurt, cheese and in plant foods such as almonds, sesame seeds, kale, among others.

Yes, milk contains a great amount of calcium which is important for children's bone growth. Milk also has a lot of protein which is important for muscle development.
