which milk is better cow or buffalo - #22555
I am really confused about which milk is better, cow or buffalo. My family has always consumed cow milk, and I was told it's lighter and better for digestion. But my friend swears by buffalo milk, saying it's richer in nutrients and taste. The other day, I bought both just to try and, honestly, they both taste kinda different. I noticed when I make my morning smoothie with cow milk, it feels lighter, but the buffalo milk makes it so creamy! I got a bit worried, tho, because my son is lactose intolerant and I’m curious if one is easier for him than the other. I read somewhere that buffalo milk might have less lactose, but then again, does it even matter if the fat content is too high? I want my kids to have the best nutrition possible, but with so many options, which milk is better, cow or buffalo? Do any of you guys have experience with this? Like, I don’t just want to rely on what friends say. I'm looking for pro opinions! What are the real health benefits? And also, is one better for baking or cooking? I mean, I love cooking, but it’s all so overwhelming! Which milk is better for the family diet? Would love some advice from you guys!
