There is no such thing as a perfect food, but milk comes close. A good source of protein and minerals, milk is a great source of nourishment.
However, if you add full-fat milk to your tea, coffee and cereal, and even enjoy the odd glass with meals, you’re getting a lot of unnecessary fat, and that fat adds up to a lot of extra calories.
Whole fat milk (in the UK, that’s blue top) has about 66 calories per 100ml. The average glass of milk is about 250ml. You probably add between 25 and 50ml in an average cup of tea. A 30-35g serving of cereal comes with a recommendation of 125ml of milk.
Let’s say you have four cups of tea (or coffee) per day, four bowls of cereal per week and two glasses of milk.
That’s a minimum of 100ml of milk per day from tea, which equates to:
(100 x 7) + (4 x 125) + (2 x 100) = 1,400ml of whole milk per week, which equates to 924 calories, or 3,960 per month.
If you switch to skimmed milk, which is only 34 calories per 100ml, that changes to 476 calories per week, or 2,040 per month.
You’ll get some benefits by switching to semi-skimmed milk, too (2,632 per month) but the best results come from skimmed.
Total Possible Saving Per Month: 1,920 calories.
