Q. Is it wrong to drink baby milk powder as an adult?

Answer

Actually it's quite safe to do so as the cooling effect of the milk will soon alleviate the discomfort caused by the capsaicin in the spicy dish. However "baby milk" is typically not prepared using cow milk and is instead referred to as "formula." It contains several substances to simulate the properties of breast milk. As a result of its estrogen-like components found in nature some people worry that drinking soy milk can have negative effects. However the nutritional content of soy-based formulas is most similar to that of cow's milk. Taste receptors are abundant on the tongue's surface. Capsaicin binds to vanilloid receptor subtype 1 which is a specific form of the receptor (TRPV1).
