Dangers of Dairy

Going dairy free is a great way to improve your health, avoiding the dangers of dairy. Studies show that a dairy-free diet can help reduce cholesterol and improve overall digestion. You may find that your body responds better to dairy-free healthy options such as coconut milk yogurt. This is often naturally lower in fat than their dairy counterparts. Replacing milk with dairy-free options such as nut milks can give you an easier and healthier way to modify your diet.

Cow’s milk can pose serious health risks to our bodies. This includes increased risk of hormone-related issues and some types of cancer. It has also been linked to inflammation in the body. Consuming dairy can also lead to digestive issues like bloating and diarrhoea. Be mindful of your dairy intake for optimal health.

Where should I buy plant-based milk?

With the increase in vegan and dairy-free diets, more and more options have become available for dairy-free milk. You can easily find it in most grocery stores or supermarkets. Try the brands with good ingredients, rather than having added synthetic added vitamins.

Synthetic vitamins are not great, they are made by adding chemicals and unnatural compounds to simulate minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients found in natural food sources. These synthetic vitamins unfortunately lack the important components of the original natural vitamins and are not properly absorbed in the body, which can then lead to an increased risk of side effects and long-term health issues. Therefore, it is best to stick to naturally occurring vitamins and minerals and forgo synthetic vitamins.
