It's been well known for some time that dairy has a lot of problems, everything from Puss, to being linked to prostate cancer in men, and it's even been linked to type 1 diabetes, and numerous other health concerns. And, it's not like you can just drink the fat-free variety and be okay. It's the actual dairy proteins that are problematic, not that the fat doesn't have problems either.

Oat milk tastes great and it's good for you, for the most part. The problem with oat milk is, they add a bunch of oil to it. they say it's just 2%, but I think thats by volume or mass. if they go by it's actual proportion (by calories), its nearly 25%!

Almond milk is great for you, but it doesn't taste as good as real almonds, so why drink it?

Soymilk is the one I really like but they add a bunch of stuff to it like calcium carbonate, which really didn't need in the first place. you can find soymilk with nothing added to it, but you really got a go to one of those specialty shops.

Personally, I like to make homemade quinoa milk, it's pretty good and you can adjust how much thickness you want based on the ratio of water. it's easy to make.
