Only 23% of Thai Children Drink Enough Milk 🥛

[TH / EN] Only 23% of Thai children drink enough milk a day. 🥛

Thai children are on a higher trend behind children in Singapore and Japan, one of the leading causes of inadequate milk consumption, according to a report from the Department of Health.

According to the Southeast Asian Child Nutrition Survey, only 23% of Thai children aged two to twelve receive milk per day, while many children have calcium and vitamin D deficiencies, which are essential to bone and muscle growth.

Today, Thais consume an average of only 23.1 litres of milk per person per year, lower than Singapore (62 litres), Japan (36.2litres) and the world average (31 litres).

The Department of Health recommends that children:

* Drink 2 glasses of fresh milk a day (morning-evening)

* Exercise for at least 60 minutes per day

* Go to bed before 9 pm to stimulate the secretion of Growth Hormones.

This point is not just about "height," but also linked to the quality of human capital, long-term health, bone strength, muscle mass and learning efficiency of children in the future.

Interestingly, the question may be not just "Does the child drink enough milk?," but also "Does the child have access to quality nutrition, exercise, and adequate sleep?," because all three factors work together to develop the child's growth.

Only 23% of Thai children drink enough milk each day.

According to recent health data, Thai children are growing shorter on average than their peers in Singapore and Japan.One commissioned factor is severe milk consumption, which can lead to adequate intake of calcium and vitamin D - both essential for healthy bone development and growth.

Thailand's average milk consumption stands at just 23.1 liters per person per year, significantly lower than Singapore (62 liters), Japan (024liters), and the global average (31 liters).

However, this is about more than height. Children's growth depends on a combination of quality nutrition, regular physical activity, and adequate sleep. Experts recommend two glasses of milk daily, at least 60 minutes of exercise, and going to bed before 9 PM to support healthy development.

The broader question is not simply whether children drink enough milk, but whether they have access to the nutrition, lifestyle habits, and health support needed to reach their full potentials.

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ของผู้ปกครองหลายคน ดิฉันพบว่าการกระตุ้นให้เด็กดื่มนมนั้นไม่ได้ง่ายเสมอไป เพราะบางครั้งเด็กไม่ชอบรสชาติหรือรู้สึกเบื่อ ดังนั้น การเปลี่ยนรูปแบบการให้ เช่น นำนมไปปั่นรวมกับผลไม้สด หรือทำเป็นสมูทตี้จึงช่วยให้เด็กสนุกกับการดื่มนมมากขึ้น นอกจากนี้ การสร้างกิจวัตรประจำวันที่รวมการออกกำลังกายอย่างน้อย 60 นาที และการเข้านอนก่อน 21.00 น. อย่างเคร่งครัด จะช่วยส่งเสริมการหลั่งโกรทฮอร์โมน ซึ่งสำคัญต่อการเจริญเติบโต จากข้อมูล OCR ที่พบคำว่า "3 PILLARS OF HEALTHY GROWTH" คือ นมที่เพียงพอ การออกกำลังกายที่เหมาะสม และการนอนหลับให้เพียงพอ เป็นปัจจัยหลักสามอย่างที่ช่วยส่งเสริมพัฒนาการสูงและสุขภาพที่ดีของเด็ก ด้วยเหตุนี้ การทำให้เด็กเข้าถึงโภชนาการในนมที่มีแคลเซียมและวิตามินดีสูง รวมถึงส่งเสริมพฤติกรรมสุขภาพเหล่านี้ในชีวิตประจำวัน จึงเป็นกุญแจสำคัญในการสร้างทุนมนุษย์ของชาติในระยะยาว สุดท้าย การสนับสนุนจากครอบครัวและชุมชนอย่างต่อเนื่องช่วยให้เด็กได้รับความใส่ใจในเรื่องโภชนาการและกิจกรรมทางกาย อันจะนำไปสู่การเติบโตและพัฒนาศักยภาพได้สูงสุดในอนาคต
