According to St. Andrews Medical School professor Ronald Maughan, through research he led, milk hydrates water much better.

Milk provides essential nutrients and is an important source of dietary energy, high-quality protein and fat, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).
Likewise, milk can contribute considerably to the necessary intake of nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, selenium, riboflavin and pantothenic acid.
“Milk provides between 10% and 15% of the recommended daily intake of B vitamins, which are involved in several metabolic pathways such as hormone synthesis and obtaining energy from nutrients. The most notable are B12 and riboflavin ”, specifies the health portal Take care Plus.
It should be noted that, despite its nutritional components, there are cases in which The consumption of cow’s milk is contraindicated, as in patients with lactose intolerance, milk allergy, and galactosemia.

Dairy and lentils: First of all, the iron contained in lentils can be affected, because the calcium contained in dairy products decreases its bioavailability by competing for its intestinal absorption.
