What is the difference between powdered milk and liquid milk?

Milk, which is rich in nutrients and nutrients required for physical development, is said to be an ideal food. Milk is delicious for babies and adults alike. This nutritious food is usually adopted from domestic animals like cows, buffaloes, goats. From time immemorial, milk has been an essential food for human civilization. But the need for conservation arose as it was not possible to supply it adequately throughout the year, but at that time there was no technology like a refrigerator in the world. And the unimaginable concept of powdered milk comes to the world from the need to conserve.

What is the difference between powdered milk and liquid milk?

In 1802, the Mongol Tatar forces discovered a fancy way to carry milk as food during the war. They dry the milk in the sun for a long time and turn it into a kind of paste. This enables them to carry a large amount of milk, as well as to store it for a long time. And from that incident, powdered milk is born. The process invented by the Mongol forces has changed in many ways and is now being followed in a modern way all over the world. The use of powdered milk in the distribution of relief in any war, disaster, or epidemic is now universal. Since it is not easily spoiled, there is no special difference with liquid milk when mixed with water, and transportation is also very easy.

What is the difference between powdered milk and liquid milk?

The difference between powdered milk and liquid milk is basically the same, wetness. As all the water in the liquid milk dries out and the moisture is completely absorbed, it becomes a powder available in the market as powdered milk. Among the other differences are slight variations in nutrient content. Powdered milk in special contains low fat than liquid milk. But the main difference is the humidity. And some more differences are made up of moisture also as quantity and weight. Transporting one kg of powdered milk instead of one liter of liquid milk means transporting six to eight liters of liquid milk. Powdered milk has gained immense popularity mainly due to this easy availability of transportation while keeping the nutritional value intact.

Pasteurized liquid milk is evaporated to turn it into powdered milk. This process is done in multiple ways. The nutritional value of milk also depends on the method of its evaporation. 21 or more nutrients including amino acids, proteins, minerals, and other elements are present in standard powdered milk. This material may be more or less depending on the evaporation process. As a result of the evaporation of some volatile and bioactive substances present in milk, powdered milk is no longer present. However, they do not differ much from liquid milk, which is a very minor ingredient.

There is a common misconception that powdered milk lacks the nutritional value of liquid milk or that it contains other harmful ingredients. At least globally marketed powdered milk brands are turning powdered milk into an alternative to liquid milk through strict quality control. The nutritional value of milk, its popularity around the world, and its strict control over milk production - all of these have to do with the brand name of Dano. In 1881, Arla came to the market with milk produced from the farmers' own dairy farms in Denmark and Sweden. They have been faithfully supplying their milk produced in Northern Europe to almost every region of the world, including Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, for more than 100 years. And from there, this milk is also unrivaled in the market of Bangladesh in taste and nutrition. Strict European standards are observed at every step of the arrival of this milk from farm to glass. And in every step from cow care, feeding, milk collection, processing to marketing, these stringent quality control results have been great - Dano lags behind in liquid milk in terms of vitamins, proteins, micronutrients, and minerals.

All in all, the differences between liquid milk and powdered milk can be expressed in certain categories.

Price- The price of powdered milk is cheaper than liquid milk.

Transport and storage- Powdered milk can be easily transported and can be stored for many days. Liquid milk is difficult to transport in large quantities, can be stored without freezing.

Nutrients- Powdered milk lacks some secondary and volatile components of liquid milk.

Cholesterol - In the process of converting liquid milk into powdered milk, dissolved cholesterol is oxidized.

Lactose- Many people cannot take lactose. Powdered milk has less lactose than liquid milk so it is suitable for everyone.

Where liquid milk is widely available, powdered milk cannot be an alternative. But liquid milk is not readily available everywhere all year round, many are out of reach due to high prices, and there are problems with transportation and storage. Powdered milk saves from these problems. Experiments have shown that powdered milk is not only harmful to health but also a quality alternative to liquid milk.
