How much coconut milk can you consume?

[whattothink]

Since becoming lactose intolerant I have tried various milk alternatives and LOVE coconut milk. Not the canned kind that is for cooking substitutions, the carton stuff that is much lower calorie and fat. I usually consume about 2 cups a day between milk, ice cream, yogurt and such. HOw much is it safe to consume?

I am not a fan of the carton coconut milks, it tastes way different than the coconut milks my grandma used to make.

I grew up with coconuts. and I drank them everyday of my childhood until I moved here in the states. In some places, coconut is the only source of "water". So to answer your question, you can never drink too much with coconut milk.

Some korean market stores sell whole coconuts. You've got to whack the thing with a machete, and when it cracks you will see the coconut juice and the coconut meat. The coconut meat is probably the most healthiest thing on earth, most people will just throw it away. The same way people eat oranges, they just suck out the juice and throw away the meat lol

2 cups a day is quite healthy, better than whole milk...don't worry~

there are places where people live off the stuff,but I don't know about store bought stuff,if you get the most natural one you can find,you should have no problems.

I've taken to milking the neighborhood cats. The taste is delectible and there is no cost involved. Of course, they're getting harder and harder to catch.

Probably quite a lot. It's a diuretic though so make sure you don't rely solely on coconut milk to stay hydrated.

You can drink as much as you want, coconut milk is natural gatorade.

As long as you aren't getting a lot of fat or sugar from it I would think it's fine to drink quite a bit.
