Too much Milk!

c130 · 27-05-2005, 06:13 AM

Is it possible to drink too much milk?

Or is it bad to drink too much?

ive always drank alot of milk but recently ive been drinking 4-5 litres a day (about 8-9 pints)

just wondering if its advisable or not?

1 in 5 people have an intolerance to milk, whether it be milk generally or just lactose.

Lets be honest, its designed for suckling young cattle not humans. We are not told all the negative stuff about milk bcos its a HUGE industry in the UK and Europe, if we all stop drinking milk the govmnt would lose a lot of revenue.

You should try not drinking milk for a week or 2 and see what happens to your physique, I'd put money on you looking leaner and sharper within a week or 2 due to your body holding less water than it does when your guzzling milk.

Doctor told me that a big factor in the kidney stones i had was the 21 pints of milk i drank a week, he said exactly the same thing as Extreme. When your a baby you lack certain things and milk is a good substitute, but when you grow up you just dont need it, it causes all sorts of shit you wouldnt expect from kidney stones to bad acne.
I was told that if i really need to drink milk then substitute it with soya milk, i have never felt better and have loads more energy.

I drink a lot of milk and rarely have a single spot letalone acne.My skin has actually improved since ive been bulking and ive never felt better, thats not just the milk obviously, its down to me understanding foods better and avoiding prossesed stuff but i dont think milk is a bad thing otherwise why would we be encouraged to give it to our kids.
Its the same with everything have the milk in moderation i have 3 pints a day but when you start talking about litres i think its overdoing it.Yea its an easy protien source but too much of a thing is usually bad news.

hard to describe really, its creamier than semi-skimmed milk and has less calories, i use alpro un-sweetened + calcium + vitamins, its got omega 3 and 6 added aswell.

Well your lucky then arent you, who was talking in litres anyway.
You drink exactly the same amount as i used to, it didnt happen to me over night, i got kidney stones after 4years of this diet.
Also it was said that kids need it to grow because of the calcium and other things it provides, thats why we encourage kids to drink it. Its when we get to adulthood that milk has no place in our diet.
