A member asked:
My baby boy is 20 month old.at this stage how much milk should be given??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Basics: A kid that age acquires the calcium & other nutrients needed with 16-24 oz of bovine milk/d. Bovine milk if taken in excess can irritate the human gut, cause microscopic blood loss & lead to anemia. A slice of cheese can be a substitute for a cup of milk when needed. Normal, not low fat milk is necessary to support normal brain growth until at least age 2.
