The calories and nutritional value in dairy drinks varies greatly depending on the ingredients used to make them. Dessert-style dairy drinks like milkshakes, for example, are very high in calories and sugar and should be enjoyed in moderation. Consult the calorie calculator for your favorite dairy drinks to determine the calories and nutritional value.

Sugar and Fat Content

Certain types of dairy drinks can be very high in both carbs and fats, especially those that contain a lot of sugar. Milkshakes and malted milks, for example, are often high in cholesterol as a result of the milk fat content and from added sugar. The overconsumption of sugar puts you at risk for a number of health problems including obesity and diabetes while high cholesterol (as a result of saturated fat consumption) could result in the buildup of plaque in your arteries and increased risk for heart disease.

Rich in Calcium

Because dairy drinks are made from milk, they may be a very good source of calcium. Calcium is one of the nutrients that is most likely to be found lacking in the American diet, so certain types of dairy drinks can help to boost your calcium intake. Calcium is crucial for building and maintaining strong bones and teeth, especially in developing children. It may also help to boost your metabolism, encouraging your body to burn more fat.
Because dairy drinks are made from milk, they have the potential to provide a number of significant health benefits. Consult the calorie counter for your favorite dairy drinks to determine the calories and nutritional value.

High in Calories

A major disadvantage of many dairy drinks is that they are very high in calories from both fats and carbs. When drinking a beverage made from dairy products you may not realize that the carbohydrate content could be very significant. Milk and dairy drinks are often high in lactose (the type of sugar found in milk) which contributes to the carbohydrate and calorie count of the product. For example, a dairy drink made with 8 ounces of whole milk contains at least 11.4 grams of carbohydrate.

Vitamin and Mineral Content

While the nutritional value of dairy drinks varies greatly, the fact that they are made using milk means that they likely contain a significant amount of vitamins and minerals. Milk contains high levels of calcium and B-vitamins which can be transferred to your favorite dairy drinks. Other vitamins and minerals you may find in certain dairy drinks could include potassium, vitamin D, vitamin A, and vitamin C.
