Why healthy alternative non dairy milks are NOT a “healthy alternative”



Why healthy alternative non dairy milks are NOT a “healthy alternative”



a) They contain vegetables oils (canola oil, corn oil, safflower oil, sunflower seed oil, or soybean oil) these oils are extracted with toxic solvents and the high heat damages their fatty acid structure, often harvested from GMO crops. Humans and even animals should avoid vegetables oils they go rancid in the body. yuck. 

b) Contain fortified vitamins and minerals, pointless as the body cannot assimilate the synthetic version of the vitamin. eg milk containing fortified D2- D2 desensitizes the D3 receptors, making us more prone to vitamin D deficiency!
c) High phytic acid content (a enzyme inhibitor that impairs digestion and is mineral blocking) 

d) Contains  carrageenan (has been shown to induce colitis in lab animals!)
Need a milk substitute? Raw milk is best! If you can get your hands on some from a local farmer, alternatively it’s cheap and easy to make your own milk with rice/ almonds/ oats etc. 

At Cranbourne Family Chiropractic and Wellness our Naturopaths offer food allergy testing if that’s believed to be playing a part in your symptoms.
