What is cholenaline in milk powder

After the baby is born, although breast milk is the best food for the baby, some women usually have insufficient milk due to their own reasons. Generally, at this time, they need to add formula milk to the baby. Careful parents will find that most formula milk contains cholecalcitonin. Most people don’t know much about cholecalcitonin. What is the role of cholecalcitonin in milk powder?

The role of cholecalciferol in milk powder

Choline, also known as "memory factor", is an important raw material for the synthesis of acetylcholine. It can help the central nervous system transmit information and is an essential substance for intellectual activities such as brain thinking and memory. All our intellectual activities rely on these interconnected nerve cells.

For newborn babies under 1 year old, they simply store the information they receive without establishing any connections, and most of the information is mechanically memorized.

In order for these memories to be transformed into internal knowledge and preserved for a long time, nerve cells must remain connected. Acetylcholine synthesized from choline is the "liaison" that specifically transmits information between nerve cells.

Choline can promote liver function

Choline can also improve the liver's ability to utilize fatty acids, thereby preventing excessive accumulation of fat in the liver. It promotes liver function and helps the body's tissues eliminate toxins and drugs.

Choline can control cholesterol

Choline emulsifies cholesterol, preventing it from accumulating in the artery walls or gallbladder.

Choline can help treat brain diseases

The bile alkaloids in the diet can increase the formation of neurotransmitters (acetylcholine), thus helping the transmission of nerve signals in the brain. It can also be used as an auxiliary drug for treating certain brain diseases.

How to get cholecalciferol?

1. For pregnant mothers, whether the intake of bile alkaloids is sufficient will affect the brain development of the fetus. The brain's hippocampus begins to develop at 25 weeks of pregnancy and continues until the child is 4 years old. Therefore, if a pregnant woman is deficient in bile alkaloids during the early stages of hippocampal development, it will lead to apoptosis of the fetal nerve cells and a decrease in new brain cells, which will in turn affect brain development. Therefore, pregnant mothers should take a balanced diet to ensure adequate nutrition.

Pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers should consume 500 mg of bile alkaloids per day.

2. Foods rich in cholecalcitonin include animal liver and egg yolk. 100 grams of eggs contain about 250 to 330 mg of cholecalcitonin. Next are red meat and dairy products. Choline is also found in peanuts, soy products and potatoes.

3. The latest research on breast milk found that the level of choline has increased significantly compared to the past (from 13 mg/100 kcal to 24 mg/kcal). Therefore, ensuring breastfeeding is the best way for your baby to get bile alkaloids.

4. It is best to buy milk powder with added bile alkaloid for babies who are bottle-fed.

After 5 or 6 months, complementary foods rich in cholecalciferol should be added in time.
