How much milk is too much?

[Manveet]

How much of what kind of milk do you guys drink. I have at least 32oz of 1% everday, sometimes more. I know milk is high in sugar, I just wanted to know what would be an optimum amount and what would be overboard.

For a period of about two months I was doing 1.5 gallons of vitamin D milk a day. Only harm was in the bathroom.

Can you post some nutritional info on Vit D milk Chase?

As long as you count the daily cals toward your total then you should be fine. Unless of course you are lactose intolerant which shouldn't be a concern for you if you are drinking 32oz. a day.

I drink 20oz (2.5 cups) of skim milk each day.

Don't worry about milk... I drink about 3L of skim milk a day... 3/4 of a gallon.

Too much milk is when you drink so much that you just barf it back up. Barring that your fine....

Thanks for the replies people. I was just thinking about milk and sugar intake.

Well I was under the impression that the lactose sugar in Milk was a slower-releasing, lower GI sugar than fructose or dextrose........

Anyways, I was drinking anywhere from a quart to a half gallon/day of 1% or 2% when I was bulking. Now that I'm cutting, I only drink it 2 or 3 times/week.
