8 side-effects of drinking too much milk

Lactose Intolerance: Many people have difficulty digesting lactose, the sugar found in milk. Excessive milk consumption can trigger bloating, gas, diarrhea, and abdominal cramp.

Weight Gain: Milk, especially whole milk, contains calories and fat. Overconsumption can contribute to weight gain if not balanced with your overall calorie needs.

Increased Cholesterol: Whole milk contains saturated fat, which can raise LDL (bad) cholesterol levels in the blood. This can increase the risk of heart disease for some individuals.

Digestive Issues: Even for those without lactose intolerance, drinking a lot of milk can overload the digestive system due to the sheer volume of liquid.

Nutrient Imbalances:  Focusing heavily on milk as a beverage source can crowd out other nutrient-rich drinks like water.

Increased Risk of Certain Cancers: Some studies suggest a possible link between high milk consumption and an increased risk of prostate and ovarian cancers

Acne: Studies suggest a potential connection between high dairy intake and the development or worsening of acne, particularly in teenagers.

Bone Fractures: Paradoxically, excessive milk consumption might not always strengthen bones. Some theories suggest it may increase a specific type of fracture risk.
