Milk and milk products are jam-packed with a good balance of protein, fat and carbohydrate along with other essential nutrients that your body craves. We’re talking about calcium, riboflavin, phosphorus, vitamins A and B12, potassium, magnesium, zinc, and iodine. It’s like a treasure trove of goodness!
Picture this: You’re sipping on a delightful cup of milk, and it’s like a superhero swooping in to save the day. But hold up, lactose intolerance is giving you major FOMO?
