What is coconut milk? Is coconut milk a dairy product?

Coconut juice mostly comes from tropical areas, where coconuts are abundant and there are a lot of coconut juice. However, in inland areas where there are no coconut trees, coconut juice appears in stores less frequently, so most people don't know anything about coconut juice. So what is coconut juice? Is coconut milk a dairy product?

Coconut juice is made by grinding coconut juice and mature coconut meat. Its main raw materials are starch and saturated fatty acids. But there is no milk in the raw material of coconut milk, so coconut milk is not a dairy product, but a drink made of mixed slurry of coconut juice or coconut meat, which tastes only like milk, because the non-milk powder in the raw material can make coconut milk taste like milk.

However, the nutritional value of coconut milk can't be compared with milk, and its protein content is much lower than that of milk, and other nutrients are also less, so coconut milk can't be used instead of milk.

In the daily diet, you can't use coconut milk instead of milk for children to drink, otherwise the nutrition that children consume in one day will be insufficient. Children usually have milk or dairy products as breakfast food. Of course, it is ok to drink coconut milk, and it can also be used as a drink at other time periods, but you should pay attention to the amount you drink. For children, in fact, warm water is a better drink to replenish water, and other fruity drinks can only satisfy their appetite. It is recommended not to drink too much for children at ordinary times.
