Almond milk is milk made of water and ground almonds. Unlike whole or skim milk, almond milk has no cholesterol, no sugar, and no saturated fat. Vitamin A, iron, and calcium are just some of the many nutrients in almond milk. Other milk alternatives like soy milk have hormones which can affect your reproductive system. Almond milk is great for those who are lactose intolerant, have casein allergies, have heart disease, or have diabetes. At only 40 calories per serving, almond milk is a great food for weight loss unlike soy milk which can be over 80 calories a serving.

Once I went almond I never went back. I love that stuff.
Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk is only 30 calories and it’s all I drink! There is a really yummy Almond-Coconut blend out there too that is only 45 calories. I think it’s by Blue Diamond.
