>Britons used to be powered by milk, sinking five pints a week back in 1974 - more than double the current average intake of around two pints.
Milk has been a staple in the human diet for over 9000 years, but recent decades there has been a switch to alternatives made from nuts and grains in line with an explosion in people opting for vegan diets or discovering they struggle to digest lactose, the protein found naturally in milk.
Currently in Britain nearly one in every ten glasses of milk drunk is a plant based alternative - just a decade ago, the figure was one in a hundred.
Experts warn that as a result of people turning away from good old fashioned dairy milk means they are missing out on key nutrients.
