Does milk still retain all it's nutrients and vitamins when warmed for 5 minutes in the microwave?

Question

Pregnant and making instant oatmeal.

Thanks.

Answer 1

I would think it should be pretty close.  My instant oatmeal only takes about 1-2 minutes in the microwave though.  You might want to be careful with 5 minutes... it's gonna be scalding hot and pretty thick and gooey.

Answer 2

Not breast milk no. You are supposed to put it in a bowl of warm water or run it under the tap to warm it. It does lose its vitamins and stuff.  

Answer 3

first off 5 minutes is wayy... too long!!!

I would do it in like 10 second intervals. to your desired temp. Cow's milk, which i take it your using, cuz you havent had baby to be able to lactate.... (some people are retarded) anyway no cow's milk doesnt lose anything because it is homogenized.

enjoy your eal. good luck with baby!

Answer 4

maybe.. but not all of it! why pre-heat the breastmilk? haha! that's cool...

is it yummy? - an oatmeal with breast milk? hehe
