Does milk make you gain weight? Does milk make you lose weight?
Question Posted Saturday October 10 2009, 1:06 am
I saw on a commercial a long time ago that having so many glasses of milk a day can really help you lose weight. I assumed that drinking milk helps you lose weight then.
Well, I just read on another site that if you drink too many glasses of milk a day then you gain weight. Now, I'm really confused. One thing is saying that milk makes you lose weight while another one says milk makes you gain weight.

There have been studies that suggest calcium helps increase metabolism, and milk has calcium in it, which is why people claim that milk helps you lose weight.

Skim milk is not as thick as whole milk. so I guess it depends on what type of milk you drink and how much of an intake you put in your body.
