Can a 13-month-old child drink pure milk?

Patient's question:

Can a 13-month-old child in my family drink pure milk? Will it have an impact? I look forward to your answer. Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, we still need to drink, but it is indeed a very unique beverage. If we choose to drink pure milk and yogurt, it is better to drink pure milk. Infants under two years old should not be given pure milk, as it is difficult for them to digest and may cause diarrhea. Now, infants can drink formula milk and yogurt to keep up with their nutritional needs. During this period, pay attention to supplementing more water while avoiding overheating the body. Hope this helps.
