Whole Milk
I got a great question about whole milk and what counts as a recommended serving size.
First, clarify your goal.
  • If you're at a healthy weight or aiming to build muscle, whole milk can be a solid option. It’s nutrient-dense and provides about 8g of fat per 8 oz serving, which aligns with the typical “thumb-size” fat portion per meal (like ¼ of an avocado). It doesn’t have to live in the “20% treat” category—it’s more of a middle-ground food when portioned well.
  • If your goal is fat loss, consider the calorie density. You might still enjoy whole milk, just in smaller portions, or you can swap for 1% or 2% milk to reduce overall fat and calories without losing satiety or taste.
