Can adults drink baby formula?

I believe that many people in life will have a question, that is, whether adults can drink baby milk powder. It is true that baby milk powder has high nutritional value, but the main reason is that formula milk is developed according to the physique of infants and young children, and is not suitable for adults to drink.

1. Although infant formula is good, it may not be good for adults to drink. Therefore, there is really no need to think that infant formula powder is expensive. Infant formula powder is good, and adults can use infant formula powder instead of ordinary adult formula powder. Because of the formula, some people's physiques are not suitable for infant formula. If adverse reactions occur again, the gain will outweigh the loss.

2. According to dairy industry professionals, infant formula is an artificial food made from ingredients extracted from the milk of cows or other animals, other plants and animals, with appropriate nutrients added to simulate the composition of human breast milk. It can provide nutrients for the growth and development of infants and young children.

3. The protein content in infant formula is much lower than that in ordinary milk and ordinary milk powder, and it cannot provide sufficient nutritional benefits for adults. Drinking infant formula is not as effective as drinking regular milk powder or milk. The lactose content in infant formula is very high, and the lactase activity in the infant's body is very high. The digestive system has a strong ability to digest and absorb lactose, but a weak ability to digest protein. But the opposite is true for adults. Many adults will experience abdominal bloating, diarrhea, intestinal rumbling, etc. after drinking infant formula. This is commonly known as "lactose intolerance."

4. Experts remind that when adults drink dairy products, milk is the best choice. Secondly, ordinary adult milk powder is more suitable for adults to drink.

People who have babies who drink milk powder at home may say that sometimes the milk powder is ready, but the baby doesn’t want to eat it or can’t eat it. It would be a waste to throw it away because the baby won’t be able to eat it next time, so the adult can just drink it. There is absolutely no problem with this. After all, it is milk powder. Although the nutritional value cannot meet the needs of adults, it is not harmful.
