Question 1

can drinking too much milk be harmful?

Accepted Answer

Probably yes: There is no consensus on this & research studies show conflicting results but i say more water & less milk!
i believe cow's milk is the perfect food for baby cows but not for adult humans! if you do drink milk i strongly advise choosing rbgh-free & ideally organic milk from grass-fed cows.. For the pros & cons of this issue see http://milk.Procon.Org/view.Answers.Php?Questionid=1317.

Question 3

is drinking too much goat's milk, bad for health?

Accepted Answer

Depends: On what too much means to you. Humans are the only mammals that continue to consume milk after early childhood, and all milk has lots of fat and cholesterol. While goat's milk produces less allergic and GI symptoms in many people than cows milk, it is not necessarily healthier. A diet heavy on plant-based food and light on animal-based food, including milk, is healthiest.

Question 4

drinking too much fanta orange will harm by baby?

Accepted Answer

Doubtful: I suppose any sugary drink that is consumed to excess might trigger  diabetes or enough weight gain to complicate delivery.However, by itself, i don't see fanta orange as toxic. A mom with a healthy metabolism will sort out the ingredients. The placenta has the ability to take some nutrients from mom's body even when she doesn't eat right.

Question 5

are there side effects from drinking too much milk?

Accepted Answer

Get fat: If you are not lactose intolerant, not much problem unless you have significantly reduced intake of other food items especially those containing fiber.  In that case, you may end up very constipated. On the other hand, if you eat the normal amount of food and at also drink 2 gallons of milk a day, you will likely gain weight.

Question 6

does drinking too much coke seriously harm your body?

Accepted Answer

Depends on what you: mean by 'seriously.'  There are basically 2 major ingredients that can cause problems - sugar and caffeine. Too much caffeine in sensitive people can cause anxiety, insomnia, rapid heart rate and even heart rhythm disturbances, and physical dependency where stopping suddenly causes irritability and severe headache. Sugar is major contributor to obesity, with diabetes and heart disease as a result.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

No: There are many foods that are traditionally considered "gassy" during breastfeeding but milk and dairy are not often included in that list. A good way to see what may be having an affect on your baby is to make a food and gas diary and see which day and times your baby is gassy. Foods consumed in the hours before a feed are the most likely culprits.

Question 10

drinking too much oat milk, will this cause any problems?

Accepted Answer

Not that i know of: Am unaware of any information about problems with drinking lots of oat milk. It is not dairy-derived, does not have any cholesterol and has little fat. It is high in fiber and protein.  People with certain kinds of gluten sensitivities could have problems with it, I guess.  I always caution moderation in all things.
