A Guide to the Best Plant Based Milk Alternatives
Are you considering a plant based milk alternative?
If so, it’s probably because you’re aware of the dangers of dairy – or, at least, think it may be behind your health problems.
Once upon a time – not too long ago – we were all told to get several servings of dairy each day. At least a couple of generations were raised on the “milk is good for you” nutrition attitude that has caused a lot of health problems for so many people.
In fact, my age group can remember being given a small bottle of milk to drink every day at school.
But times have changed. And now we know that milk and dairy products don’t necessarily lead to improved bone health, that was one of the big selling points of milk.
However, a Swedish study showed that when women drink more than 3 glasses of milk a day, they increased their death rate over 20 years by 100%.
Additionally, multiple studies have shown an increased risk of
- type I diabetes,
- several cancers,
- high cholesterol,
- acne
- and pro-inflammatory conditions
for people who are on a diet which includes dairy milk.
