HUMAN NUTRITION

Detailed explanation-1: -homogenization, process of reducing a substance, such as the fat globules in milk, to extremely small particles and distributing it uniformly throughout a fluid, such as milk. When milk is properly homogenized, the cream will not rise to the top.

Detailed explanation-2: -Homogenization is commonly defined as a chemical or physical treatment by which the composition or structure of a substance (solid, liquid or gas) or mixture of substances is made uniform.

Detailed explanation-3: -During homogenization, milk is forced under high pressure through a small nozzle. This process breaks down the fat globules to about a quarter of their original size. These microscopic fat globules become receptors for milk proteins.
