The main disadvantages of “fashionable” milk are named

0

Today, many people prefer plant-based milk. However, experts have warned that it can also harm health.

One of the most “fashionable” drinks is almond milk. It is prepared by mixing almonds with water and then straining the mixture to remove solids. It has a nutty flavor and a creamy texture similar to regular milk.

For this reason, the almond version is an excellent option for people following a vegan diet, as well as those with allergies or lactose intolerance. Almond milk is often added to coffee and some dishes.

However, experts warn that almond milk, unlike, for example, cow milk, does not contain a sufficient amount of protein, which is necessary for muscle growth, and as well as improving the condition of the skin and bones.

One glass contains about one gram of protein, while a glass of cow's milk and soy milk contain eight and seven grams, respectively.

For children it is not recommended to drink vegetable milk for children under one year of age, as it can interfere with the absorption of iron. Plant-based beverages generally contain few nutrients, vitamins, and minerals.

For example, they contain very little iron, vitamin D, and calcium.

In addition, almonds and almond milk products are sources of tyrosine, which can worsen migraines, say experts. They also warn that almond milk is dangerous for thyroid patients. ​
