Isn't milk such a small part of most people's diets that it couldn't possibly have much of an effect? Especially for adults. Most people I know just put a bit in coffee and that's about it. I can't remember the last time I drank a glass of milk.

(Note I mean milk the drink, dairy is probably a big part of diets but that's not being studied here)

That was also one of my initial thoughts. But who knows. I'm sure milk consumption varies a lot in different geographies, cultural backgrounds, upbringings, etc...

I personally never drink milk. The only dairy product I regularly consume is butter. But I had a roommate who drank a glass of milk with dinner every day and occasionally had a bowl of cereal in the mornings. So It's at least a spectrum.
