A member asked:

Are there side effects from drinking too much milk?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. John Chiu answered

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.
