What changes the number

A glass of whole milk is about 130 kcal with 7 g of protein and a large share of a day's calcium — good value, and easy to forget you drank. Buffalo milk, common across much of India, is considerably richer than the cow milk this figure assumes, and toned milk is lower again; which one your household buys changes this number more than any other variable. Two or three glasses a day plus chai adds up to a meal's worth of calories nobody logs.

Where this number comes from

Primary source: MetaFit Indian Curated v1.0, entry whole_milk — the same dataset the MetaFit app logs against. Checked by MetaFit Nutrition Team on 2026-09-22.

Cross-checked against USDA FoodData Central (Milk, whole, 3.25% milkfat, with added vitamin D), which gives 60 kcal per 100 g — a 7.7% difference.

Home recipes vary, especially in oil and ghee.
