Can I drink milk that has been left overnight?

We all know that milk is a type of dairy product that is high in calcium and protein. The nutritional value of milk is considerable. Many people like to drink milk very much. Milk has many benefits to the human body. And drinking a glass of milk before going to bed can help improve sleep quality. So is it still okay to drink milk that has been left overnight? Let’s take a look at it together below.

1. We all know that milk should not be drunk cold, because after the milk is frozen, the fat and protein in the milk are separated, the taste becomes significantly lighter, and the nutrients are not easily absorbed; some information also says that milk should not be boiled. If the temperature is too high, the protein in the milk will change from a sol state to a gel state, causing precipitation to appear, affecting the quality of the dairy product. Sterilized milk that has been refrigerated overnight only needs to be heated and boiled; do not boil it repeatedly. So you can drink it overnight.

2. How to preserve fresh milk? This is something many people want to know. Because in our daily life, it often happens that fresh milk is thrown away due to improper storage methods. What a pity! And this experience often happens not once or twice, but many times. Fresh milk refers to milk that has been out of the cow's body for no more than 24 hours. Many people do not like to drink fresh milk because it tastes strange.

3. However, in terms of nutritional value, fresh milk is relatively high, higher than similar dairy products. Fresh milk has many benefits for our human body, so some people buy some fresh milk to drink for this purpose. But many times, fresh milk is often wasted because we cannot drink it and we do not know the correct way to preserve it.

How to store milk

When storing milk, pay attention to the following points:

1. Fresh milk should be placed in a cool place immediately, preferably in the refrigerator.

2. Do not expose milk to the sun or light. Sunlight and light will destroy several vitamins in the milk and also cause it to lose its aroma.

3. Keep the bottle cap closed to prevent other odors from entering the milk.

4. Pour the milk into cups, teapots and other containers. If you do not finish drinking it, you should cover the lid and put it back in the refrigerator. Never pour it back into the original bottle.

5. Excessive cooling also has adverse effects on milk. When milk is frozen into ice, its quality suffers. Therefore, milk should not be frozen, just put it in the refrigerator.
