Hello,

Are you looking for recommendations? Or just curious about personal choices?

Looking at the question from a nutritionist's POV:

What is the reason for drinking milk? Taste? Nutrients?

Generally, the suggestion is to take milk or dairy as a source of calcium and also Vitamin D. From 20-40, the RDA for calcium is around 800mg/day.

An average cup of cow's milk has around 300mg per 200-250ml serving. That's 2 and 2/3 cups a day to get enough calcium. Plant-based milks also do not usually have the same amoutn of calcium (although there are a few). There are also milks which are fortified with additional calium, like what others have recommended- e.g. HL, Anlene, etc.

Adults do not need additional saturated fat (unless you're underweight). So skim milk would be the first go-to (NutriGrade A), and low-fat milk will be the 2nd choice (Nutrigrade B).

Adults generally don't need additional sugar, so flavoured milks also won't be recommended.

Always read the label before buying. :)

Hope this helps.

Milk Powder: Glucerna or Anlene Gold, Ensure as next bet.

Milk : Any fresh pasturized ones will do, personally prefer Meiji, Magnolia or Farmhouse one (more creamy taste and not as sweet as HL).

Plant based milk or Meiji low-fat milk
