I always drink milk, low fat though
We drink approx. 20 litres per week0 -
Milk is delicious. And a necessity (to me) in tea or coffee. Just log it and keep within your daily macros. Also--skim milk is sad...do at least 2% or whole milk if you have the calories...0
-
I occasionally drink skim (I actually prefer the flavor over 2% or full fat). Mostly I get my dairy from yogurt and cheese and use milk in my tea.0
-
I always drink milk, mostly with my coffee. I also like having some cheese as a snack 0
-
Idk about others but I have a lot more energy (and feel a lot more happier and healthier) since I went dairy and meat free.0
-
I prefer almond milk. Yummy!0
-
I drink 3.5% homogenized milk, and 2% Chocolate Milk almost daily. hasn't hindered me at all.
Why would it?0 -
I never drink milk because it causes inflammation in the body. Also if you think about it a cow lets her calf drink milk so he will grow to be a 300lb beast. No animal in the wild drinks milk after they are full grown. When I quit drinking milk my allergies disappeared and I generally feel better. Educate yourself and do what you feel is best for you! Good luck!0

I love milk! But I worry that the intent of cows milk is to make baby cows big, and how much do baby cows gain in a year?
However, when I went Paleo, and drank almond milk, coconut milk, soy milk, I hated all of them. And I felt so deprived.
So, milk stays...I am addicted to dairy. One dietician who looked at my food diary commented that I eat a lot of dairy products. And felt I should reduce cheese.0 -
I used to eat dairy all the time (namely cheese) but then I stopped and feel so much better. I think that dairy isn't something people should have when they get older. I know many people who have stopped eating dairy and said they felt better. When you think about it, when you drink milk you're getting all the natural hormones from the mamma cow that was intended for the calf. Should people be drinking that? I'm sure there are other ways to get calcium. Any thoughts?0

Solid first posts. <sarcasm>
Man has this keen sense to be able to harness and think beyond most animals to gather foods from anywhere, and derive it into a sustainable source.
There are other animals in the world that drink others milk.
Cats will drink most types of milk, even feral cats will try to steal milk from the teats of elephant seals.
Pending a medical condition cows milk is a solid form of nutrition, and very healthy.
People who say they fell better after cutting dairy - what else did they cut?
How much dairy were they consuming daily?
Did they increase exercise?
Was it because they were eating too much?
Vague suggestions are vague

Love my milk. I'm glad my ancestors accepted the drunk dare to see how that stuff that came out of cow teats tastes.0

So very true. Like all mammals, we stop drinking milk from our own species in childhood but man had figured out how to domesticate, harvest, and use milk from many species (cows, goats, sheep, camels, yaks, etc) because they have seen the nutritional benefits.
Ages ago I had a history professor tell us that, just prior to the potato failure, the Irish peasants were the healthiest in Europe because they mostly ate a diet of potatoes and milk which, when combined, made for almost complete nutrition.

I'm planning to stop drinking milk for about 4 weeks and I'll see how it works.0

What are you hoping to get from not drinking milk?0 -

That's why I don't eat meat. Tyrannosaurus Rex fed meat to their babies and those suckers grew up to be 7.5 tons. I cut all meat out of my diet and I haven't had the urge to scavenge on the carcass of a hadrosaurus since then! Do some research on the effects of meat in your diet!0 -
I definitely prefer drinking milk to, say, baking milk or frying milk.0

why?
I am guessing you are cutting right now?
if you have a 500 calorie deficit with milk or without milk your results should be exactly the same….0 -

I drink milk occasionally, and have small pieces of cheese as a snack. I've swapped out for almond or coconut before and gone dairy free, but I've never found it made any difference for me.
So long as you don't have problems with lactose, and you figure it into your calories, there's nothing wrong with it. I always drink at least 1%, and sometimes 2%. Skim is like milky water to me.0 -

Why? All you have to do is make sure that meat fits into your calories and macros? Do you really think dinosaurs believed in clean eating!?!11!?one!0 -

It's also horrific for the environment, especially in California. I stopped drinking almond milk.
