3. Aids Your Digestive Health
Focusing on your digestive health is a great way to get the most out of your diet. Start with getting three servings of dairy daily. Dairy is full of digestive aids like vitamin D for calcium absorption, the B vitamins that help convert food into energy, and selenium to stabilize the metabolism.
4. Helps You Relax
Consider drinking a warm glass of milk before bed. Dairy milk has a small amount of tryptophan, an essential amino acid that triggers both melatonin (to help you sleep) and serotonin (to uplift your mood). The high-quality proteins in milk (including whey and casein) leave you feeling full and satisfied so you won’t go to bed feeling hungry.
