)Dairy products are a high-quality source of calcium and protein in the diet, providing the body with a variety of high-quality nutrients. According to statistics, china's residents' annual per capita consumption of dairy products in
2015
was
36kg
(about
100g
per person per day), which is
1/3
of the world's per capita consumption of dairy products, which is
1/10
per capita consumption in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, which is significantly lower than the world average. In view of the current shortage of daily dairy intake of Chinese residents, the recommended daily consumption of dairy products in the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents
2016
is
300g
per day, which is calculated as the maximum daily dairy intake.-flavored fermented milk is fermented by probiotics, lactose is broken down, and some proteins are degraded into small molecules that are easily absorbed, especially suitable for children, the elderly and lactose insatiable people. Milky drinks have good taste, diverse nutrients and easy to eat characteristics, by children and young people love, has become a major force in the beverage market. Consumers of both types of dairy products included people of all ages, and the

The minimum fortified dose of vitamin
K2
(fermentation method) is
10μg/d
and the maximum dose is
53.3μg/d
, i.e. the fortified dose
