Milk: Fulfilled Children's Nutrition, Increased Life Expectancy Of Local Farmers

Every June 1, World Milk Day is commemorated as a reminder of the importance of consuming milk for health. Milk is not just a thirst-quenching drink. 

Behind its delicious taste, there are great benefits for the immune system, especially for children and the elderly. 

Rich in protein, vitamins A, D, C, zinc, and selenium, milk plays an important role in the formation of antibodies, increasing the immune response, and reducing inflammation. 

According to a study in the Journal of Dairy Science, regular consumption of milk during growth helps: 

Formation of bone mass 

Improvement of children's immune systems 

Without sufficient calcium intake from an early age, the risk of osteoporosis and fractures in old age will increase. 

Unfortunately, there are still many Indonesian children who do not have sufficient access to fresh milk because of: 

Economic limitations 

Low parental awareness 

In the midst of the low level of national milk consumption and the challenge of fulfilling children's nutritional needs, Susu Mbok Darmi took real steps. 

They distributed 1,000 cups of fresh milk in the Jakarta Car Free Day (CFD) area as part of a social campaign.
