So some health professionals encourage people to stop eating dairy and replace it with things like Almond milk or Rice milk. The thing is that when I compared the original, unsweetened versions of these products to skim milk, skim milk appeared to win on all nutritional fronts except sugar. I am told that one can buy fortified versions of these products, which leaves me confused. I mean, I thought the idea was that I was being told to drink less milk because it's not healthy to drink a lot of it. But foods that are artificially enriched/fortified are not as good for people as natural foods that have the good stuff in them without any artificial additives (such as grass-fed, rbh-free, no-antibiotic milk). I am so confused. What is the point of replacing milk with a less-healthy, less-tasty alternative? Any ideas?
