So there is this podcast medical doctor by the name of Dr. Steven Gundry who talks about different plant based milks. First milk is almond milk which is made from the skin of almonds and that skin contains lectins which over time can ruin your gut. Next milk is cashew milk. Cashews are part of the poison ivy family so if you like to drink poison (we eat and drink poison everyday) go ahead and pour yourself a tall cold one. Third milk is coconut milk which he recommends as the best plant based milk alternative.

Nut-made milk made is made from nuts. So almond milk is made from almond nuts not the skins of almonds. Cashew nuts are nice and tasty. Never drank cashew milk but I have yet to hear of anyone in the Caribbean or else where dying from eating cashew nuts or drinking its milk. Coconut milk has many uses and benefits. Can be found in some Caribbean cooking and baking recipes (also Asian dishes). For me, non diary milk is more healthier than cow milk.

I'm personally not a fan, but I think the biggest benefit is for people who can't do dairy

Our family, or the three of us, uses milk for cereal mainly and hardly for drinking. We use 1% low fat milk. My youngest niece is lactose intolerant and can only have lactose free milk. At one time I’ve seen goat milk. The store I work for has all sorts of milk even organic. Personally I like whole milk. The same doctor does a separate podcast on low fat milks saying they’re are loaded with sugars to make up for the lack of flavor.

Marketing gimmicks. Diary milk is not as healthy as decades ago.

And yet a lot of people buy it at the store I work for. My good friend says the grandson she raised can drink a whole gallon in a day or two. People will continue to buy it no matter what.

True and others that know better or want better will buy an alternative or don't drink milk altogether.

I remember in school getting milk in a carton. You can hardly find milk that way anymore at least the small kind. You can get a half gallon that way and at our store I’ve seen a chocolate milk like the ones I use to get at school.
