Is drinking two gallons of whole milk every three days healthy for me?

That much milk can cause you to have calcium deposits which may cause you to develop kidney stones. My husband had them and they hurt when they come out! Maybe you should switch to 2%.

Drinking A Gallon Of Whole Milk Is More Dangerous Than Second Hand Smoke. Not Fiction, Totally Truth.

That's over 4000 calories just from the milk. You don't need to lose weight, though, so the calories aren't a concern. Most healthy diets recommend 3-4 cups of milk or milk products a day. You're drinking at least 10! Switch to water or other fluids for hydration. Moderation in all things for healthy living.

(1) Eventually you may never be able to drink milk again. I have seen this happen with a couple of friends who were milk freaks.

(2) Make sure you are drinking only whole milk - this will keep your weight down.

(3) Maybe reduce it to 2 to 3 glasses a day? I guess that's a little less than 1/2 what you are drinking now?

As far as rBST versus non-rBST, I'm all for things that are totally natural with as little extra as possible... But rBST, from what I remembered from my lab experiments at Cornell, is nothing but a replacement for a natural hormone that cows generate on their own. It is similar to giving a vitamin booster to the cows (except its a hormone) to make them have the missing dietary item that they would naturally get out in the wild in what is normally referred to as the "perfect grazeland". If anything at all, rBST treated cow's milk will make you grow taller than non-rBST treated cow's milk.

I have heard that milk is terrible for asthmatics!!! Also, whole milk??Why?? The milk fat is not where the nutrients are!! You should switch to 2% or 1% or even skim (if you can stand the taste) Why not just drink water for fluid?. Milk for health is an old wive's tale unless you need it as a food. Take vitamins instead. Better yet, ask your alergist and your regular doctor. Better have your cholesterol checked because of all the butterfat too!

That is an excessive amount. The only thing you could drink that much of is water.

Having too much milk can lead to diabetes and other long term problems. It can also exacerbate asthma. Milk has casein, a protein, in it. Casein is known to cause more inflammation and is linked, thorough out a lifetime, to certain cancer risks.

Try to vary your beverages more and drink more water. Try some soy mile, too, or rice, almond or oat milk. Anything in excess can be harmful. Eating a variety of foods is better.

I think that it's not very healthy drinking 2 gallons of whole milk every 3 days, I would start cutting back to 3-4 glasses of milk a day and start going down to 2% milk instead of whole milk.

I would suggest try switching to 1% or skim milk, you dont need all that extra cream and fatty stuff that whole milk contains. If you are used to whole milk the skim and 1% percent will not taste much creamy but you get used to it. Also allot of milk is not bad, epcially because it contains calcium which helps slim your tummy and waist.

Drinking more than 8-10 ounces of orange juice a day is unhealthy, because you are getting WAY too much sugar. Remember, it is only the JUICE from the orange you are getting. Same goes for other juices from concentrate. The only part of the fruit you are getting is the sugar. This is a bad idea.

it's a little like speaking out against motherhood but i have heard whole milk is good for young cows only. Two gallons is definetly too much.
