How much milk should I be drinking per day? I'm 18??


Answers: That's up in the air...

I am 21 and usually drink 2 cups or so. I believe it is beneficial, some people believe it doesn't belong in an adults diet.

If you do drink millk, I would suggest low fat.
You should drink at least one tall glass of milk a day it helps with bones and keeps your immune system running well
milk.... does a body good.
I try to drink a glass of milk a day and get plenty of dairy, but what I might do at 18 is try to cut it back to 1% or skim milk, just because from here on out your metabolism will not be what it was when you were in HS. Skim milk has about as much calcium as whole milk does, and all milk is an excellent source of proteins.
1 gallon per hour
3- 8oz. servings of dairy i believe is what is the recommended amount
3 glasses
none - adult humans don't need dairy - just calcium. We are the only mammals that continue drinking milk after infancy.

There are many sources of calcium out there besides dairy. Leafy green vegetables, soy products, etc.

If you must drink milk, only buy the non-BGH (bovine growth hormone) type.
I've heard some say that adults shouldn't drink milk. If you can tolerate it, you should probably drink skim - that way you're getting some calcium and protein but none of the fat. I'd not drink more than 2 glasses a day though. You need water too.
