      The Guardian is one of my go-to sources for news, so I would offer their report on adult consumption of milk:

        I am not sure, but many adults are lactose intolerant.

          Milk has high amounts of calcium, which is important for bone density. Go for low-fat or skim, however.

            Some philosophy about nutrition that makes sense.
            Eat Food but not too much.  Mainly leaves.
            If your grandparents wouldn't eat it you probably shouldn't.

            I'm Middle-Eastern descent - lots of vegetables, some dairy, little meat.

                I'm vegan, as a kid I never really enjoyed milk. Today we have so many other supplements that can provide a healthy supply of calcium for us….......other than regular cow's milk.

                You don't need milk.  It's really just a pure decision of pleasure.

                  Strange that I'm one of those few who never get "Crossed Over" in drinking milk. I still drink cold milk every time I'm home from the office, before having dinner. Although milk for adult are available, I still drink fresh milk.

                  There's always the calcium pills.

                        @Oscarbingham:

                        I wouldnt drink the saliva or the Blood of Any cow, just like I wouldnt drink the milk out of a Cat or a dog. For ethical reasons, only vegetable  milks here please!

                        Each almond that makes up your almond milk requires 5 liters of water to produce it.

                        ++++

                        As for drinking cow's milk, it's very good for you, especially if you are white.    Non-whites tend to be lactose intolerant, while whites evolved to be able to drink milk to help us with Vitamin D and Calcium.

                        If you live in the north or south part of the globe and are white, then drinking milk is beneficial for you especially in the winter when the sun is farther away from you.
