In a recent episode of her YouTube podcast, Neha Dhupia (Indian actor and host) discussed the importance of milk in nutrition with fellow actor Rubina Dilaik. Dhupia stated, "People should stop saying that milk is not good for you. Milk is great for you. I drink milk all the time." Supporting her claims, Dt Amreen Sheikh, chief dietitian at KIMS Hospitals in Thane, highlighted milk's rich nutrient profile, including high-quality protein, calcium, and vitamin B12, which are vital for bone health and overall wellness. However, Sheikh cautioned that not everyone digests milk well, particularly those with lactose intolerance, who may experience discomfort. She recommended a daily intake of 200 to 400 ml for most adults, emphasizing that milk should complement a balanced diet rather than replace other food groups. Special populations, such as children and active individuals, may benefit more from regular milk consumption, but alternatives like curd and fortified plant-based options are also viable. Ultimately, individuals should assess their own body's reactions to milk and consult health professionals as needed.
