How much milk in a week ?

[biggs682]

I get through the best part of 8 pints of green milk a week. What about the rest of you ?

 

[fossyant]

Loads and loads - semi skimed but I can drink a couple of pints easily in an evening.

 

[Chromatic]

None unless I have some porridge.

Wow 😳 really? Is that a healthy amount of dairy?

 

[BoldonLad]

Six pints / week, (semi skimmed), between two of us, so, three pints each per week.

 

[glasgowcyclist]

Around 3 pints for me, all with cereal.

 

[Sea of vapours]

Roughly three litres of full fat per week. More on any given day on which I cycle as I have about half a pint as a recovery drink on getting back.

 

[Darius_Jedburgh]

13/14 pints between 2 of us. 1 pint daily delivered and 3 x 2 pints from Tesco. We have a lot of brews!
Suppose that's close to 7 pints each per week. Good and healthy.

 

[Brandane]

It varies, but probably about 4 pints per week. Semi skimmed. Mostly in porage.

From the NHS website

Much of the fat in milk and dairy foods is saturated fat. For older children and adults, eating too much fat can contribute to excess energy intakes, leading to becoming overweight.

A diet high in saturated fat can also lead to raised levels of cholesterol in the blood, and this can put you at increased risk of having a heart attack or stroke.

1 litre of semi skimmed at most as it does not agree with my gastric problems.

 

[numbnuts]

8 pints of semi skimmed

 

[vickster]

Loads now I’m working at home the whole time. Skimmed. Maybe a pint a day?
More if I go get a latte (not as often these days)
No high cholesterol here
I also eat cheese and yogurt and chocolate...and some ice cream in warmer weather.
No meat tho

 

[Jenkins]

3 pints of full fat milk in glass bottles delivered by Dairy Crest plus 1 x 2 litre plastic bottle of semi-skinned picked up from any local shop.

Full fat on breakfast cereals, semi-skimmed in hot chocolate

 

[Oldhippy]

None I don't use milk.
