“Doodh piyo, warna bones strong kaise banengi?” 🥛✨
You’ve heard this too, right? Growing up, my mom would insist I finish my glass of milk every single day—no excuses!
But now, we know better 👇
🌍 The truth is, over 60% of the world’s population struggles to digest lactose, leading to bloating and discomfort.
🤔 Surprisingly, our bodies don’t even fully absorb the calcium in cow’s milk—only about 30-35% is actually bioavailable.
🚨 Plus, with widespread adulteration, milk can sometimes do more harm than good. It’s even been linked to acne, PCOD, and other health concerns.
🌱 Nature gives us plenty of amazing, plant-based calcium sources:
• Sesame Seeds: Just 1 tablespoon has about 88 mg of calcium.
• Almonds: A quarter cup offers around 80 mg of calcium.
• Ragi (Finger Millet): 100 grams of ragi contains 344 mg of calcium.
Let’s remember that many of the beliefs we grew up with were shaped by advertising from the food industry. It’s time to rethink them and move towards more conscious food choices.🐄💚
