Almond milk is the perfect nontoxic alternative to dairy ewww milk

Most people have no idea that Almond milk is more beneficial and nutritious than regular dairy milk, due to the fact that it contains much more nutrients and it has not been subjected to the same processing.   In my experience, Almond milk has a rich, crispy, nutty smooth and creamy taste that cannot be compared to any type of dairy milk.  Almond milk is an excellent source of antioxidant like vitamin E and Vitamin A. Vitamins A and E act as antioxidants, enhancing immunity and protecting the body’s cells and tissues from damage. In addition, vitamin A is important for healthy eyesight, improves the skin and supports normal growth and development. Vitamin D helps build and maintain strong bones and teeth, and enhances immunity.

Original Non-gmo almond milk is an excellent source of omega fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins. It contains 50% more calcium than dairy milk without saturated fat or cholesterol.  Building strong muscles and bones is an important factor in preventing osteoporosis later in life and those who are lactose in-tolerant-- who cannot tolerate dairy products, or do not use them, often come up short on these important nutrients needed daily for building these muscle tissues so therefore Almond milk will be a good option for those who are lactose intolerant.
Almond milk is also very beneficial for vegans, and for those who are allergic to soy or cow milk products. It is one of the best milk choice for those that are truly passionate and conscious in terms of health and food choices.

Benefits of Almond milk:
  • Almond milk helps maintain eye, skin, and bone health. The iron that is found in abundance in almond milk helps to produce good muscles.

  •  Almond milk is beneficial for weight loss or weight management because of its high fiber content.  
  • A glass of almond milk contains nearly one gram of fiber per 8oz. serving that is beneficial for healthy digestion.

  • Sugar friendly factor:  almond milk has low amount of simple sugars, giving it a low glycemic nature, which means it is digested fully by the body and used for energy. A great alternative for a diabetic seeking a healthier choice.

  • Almond milk helps promote healthy heart function:  The low amount of sodium, lack of cholesterol and presence of Potassium in almond milk helps keep blood pressure levels normal and aids in maintaining a healthy heart.

  • Alzheimer’s Disease Prevention:   almond milk is packed with Vitamin D which is known to improve cell function and immunity, and it has been said that it can help decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s.

  • Muscle  Building :  Almond milk helps increase muscle power, which is perfect for body builders looking for a natural way to increase muscle strength and give them the explosive power that ‘unnatural’ products give.  It helps improve muscles due to the presence of  riboflavin which is a form of Vitamin B and iron.  In a typical serving of almond milk benefits is 4% of your recommended daily intake of iron, which helps regulate oxygen absorption.  And a high dose of riboflavin appears to be useful in the prevention of migraine headaches.

  • The benefits of almond milk are vast, especially for those looking to lose weight.  It has a low caloric value, with an 8 oz serving of Plain (which has no added sugar) only containing  around 60 calories, which has a much lower impact on your daily calorie intake than dairy milk. 

  • Almond milk is rich in calcium, with one cup offering approximately 300 mg. Calcium plays a big role in building and maintaining strong bones and teeth.  Almond milk contains 25% of your daily recommended Vitamin D intake and 30% of calcium both of which aid in building and maintaining strong healthy bones.  Calcium helps regulate blood pressure and muscle contraction. 

    • Almond milk is a good choice when traveling on road and camping trips if you find that ice box--(coo-lade) is an inconvenient add to your vacation kit. Dairy milk has to be refrigerated or it will spoil, but you will see in the stores that almond milk is set on the shelf with dry foods; which means if you feel like it you can keep it on your shelf and it won't go spoiled however, i still  do recommend that opened cartoon food should be kept in refrigerator once opened.
