According to one study, every 1% loss of body fluids, the body's physical ability will decrease by 15%. The signs include difficulty concentrating, heart rate and body temperature increase, and feel tired.
More severe dehydration can also memicul organ damage is more serious, or even death. For example in people who stay too long in the sun, there is often a heart condition called heat stroke.
Children are quite susceptible to the dangers of dehydration because they are still in its infancy, so the organ function is not fully perfect. Especially when the kids exercising in the hot sun and when the air was dry.
A study at McMaster University showed that water alone is sometimes not enough because the body does not replace electrolytes lost through sweat. However, for children, energy drinks is not recommended.
Milk is much better to eat when the kids exercising in the sun, because the nutrients in it not only replaces lost fluids and electrolytes. Proteins and calcium in milk is also good for the formation of muscle cells and bone.
"Children are easily dehydrated during exercise and they have enough water to replace body fluids. Milk is obviously better because it is rich in protein, calcium, carbohydrates, and electrolytes, "according to one researcher Brian Timmons, as quoted Indiavision.

"Milk is not fattening when consumed as directed. That it is made fat fried foods and excessive sugar consumption," added Fiastuti.
What about soy milk and green beans? Is it possible to replace the calcium content as milk? According dr.Fiastuti, soy milk and green beans vegetable rather than animal protein. So automatic, the food can not meet the need of animal protein in the body.
However, vegetable protein is still required as well by the body. Moreover, if balanced with the animal protein consumed. Because the function of proteins in the body would be optimal, such as forming hemoglobin, replacing damaged cells, produce enzymes, blood-forming, and so on.
He also added that pregnant women is very important to consume milk every day. If not, will not be optimal infant growth. Pregnant women need to watch out for vegetarian groups, milk and eggs should still be consumed.
To familiarize the consumption of milk, children need to be introduced early on.
