Regular or whole milk comes with all its goodness. However, it has high-fat content. This staple dairy product is unavoidable due to it’s calcium and nutrients. There are several types of milk available as alternatives to full cream milk. Toned milk is one of those. It is a diluted version of buffalo milk. Mixing buffalo milk with skim milk or skim milk powder thins the milk greatly.

While a large percentage of the Indian city people are living a sedentary lifestyle, a question often asked in middle and upper-middle-class Indian homes, should we opt for toned or whole milk? 

Which form of milk is better, to keep adults healthy and their weight in control, is toned milk a better choice, but whether it is as beneficial for the children in the family is often unanswered.

Promotes easy digestion

Kids and adults who are mildly lactose intolerant can drink toned milk. The whey protein content in the toned milk makes it easier to digest. It, therefore, does not lead to bloating or digestive problems in kids.

Protects bones

Toned milk is high in nutrients such as calcium and vitamin D. The calcium strengthens the bones and prevents them from fracturing. It also prevents osteoporosis. Osteoporosis may lead to the breaking of bones because of its demineralization and weakening. Vitamin D helps the absorption of calcium efficiently in the body.

Strengthens teeth

The calcium present in the toned milk strengthens the tooth enamel and lends a shine to it. Therefore, daily consumption of toned milk could prevent the demineralization of the enamels.

Helps weight loss

Those who want to reduce weight usually prefer low-calorie foods. Toned milk is a good alternative to regular milk in such cases. It is low in calories and has all the nutrients. Substituting full-fat milk with toned milk, in everyday items such as cereals, tea, and homemade milk-based sweets is a good way to reduce the total number of calories one consumes.

Controls hunger

One glass of toned milk keeps one full for a long time. It has fewer calories and dense nutrients compared to everyday snacking options. On the whole that makes it a sensible option to curb untimely hunger pangs. It is especially good for children and young adults who are always on the go. Toned milk works as a quick energy booster.
