Anyone drink Plant Based Drinks Instead of Milk?
Do you make your own Plant Based Drinks or do you buy them yourself from the supermarket?
I used to drink Soya milk instead of milk when I was eating vegetarian, still love the taste and buy it occasionally just to mix it up but I have read it’s not great for women 
zerocenturyzero I haven’t! Do you recommend? I’m sure I’ve seen it before in one of the big supermarkets

I plan to make home made Hemp Milk so I recommend it to anyone.
I tried most of them, but I do not think it is like milk. Also soya drinks can have an effect on hormone system if u drink them all the times, because the plant is not processed in the right way.
Rice and coconut milk, just feels sweet and more likely to be used in baking. Also these milks fill me more than the normal one, can not drink a glass from them
SOYA SOY IS A COMPLEX STARCH THAT CREATES SULFIDE IN THE BODY IT IN TURN EATS UP THE IRON AND OXYGEN
have grown up drinking soya milk but have always preferred full fat dairy, as it taste better (the soya milk they have here is inferior to what they have out in the Far East). Almond milk is ok, but again, it tastes funny in the UK
Soy contains very high levels of phytic acid, which reduces your body’s assimilation of calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc. High phytate diets have caused growth problems in children.
Two senior U.S. government scientists, Drs. Daniel Doerge and Daniel Sheehan, have revealed that chemicals in soy could increase the risk of brain damage in both men and women, and abnormalities in infants.
Protease inhibitors in soy interfere with protein digestion and have caused malnutrition, poor growth, digestive distress, and pancreatitis.
Lectins and saponins in soy can cause leaky gut and other gastrointestinal and immune problems.
Scientists have known since the mid-1940s that soy phytoestrogens are powerful enough to affect fertility and even promote estrogen-positive breast cancer. Although scientists discovered only recently that soy lowers testosterone levels, soy phytoestrogens are known to disrupt endocrine function and are so potent, they are marketed to older women for relief of hot-flashes and other menopausal symptoms. If the hormones in soy are strong enough to relieve hot flashes, why would we feed it to children?
Soy phytoestrogens are potent antithyroid agents that can cause hypothyroidism and may cause thyroid cancer. In infants, consumption of soy formula has been linked to autoimmune thyroid disease.
Vitamin B-12 analogs in soy are not absorbed and actually increase the body’s requirement for B-12.
Soy foods increase the body’s requirement for vitamin D.
Processing of soy protein results in the formation of toxic lysinoalanine and highly carcinogenic nitrosamines.
Free glutamic acid or MSG, a potent neurotoxin, is formed during soy food processing and additional amounts are added to many soy foods.
Processed soy foods contain high levels of aluminum which is toxic to the nervous system and the kidneys and strongly implicated in Alzheimer’s disease.
Archer Daniels Midland recently withdrew its application to the FDA for GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status for soy isoflavones following an outpouring of protest from the scientific community. The FDA never approved GRAS status for soy protein isolate because of concern regarding the presence of toxins and carcinogens in processed soy.
Soy is one of the greatest vectors for the consumption of glyphosate or Roundup, a carcinogenic herbicide.

zerocenturyzero so that's my science lesson for the day! lol! either way, I like to eat tofu and have soybean foods, bt not a fan of soya milk at all. I like full fat cow's milk, but I do know that has all sorts of problems as well
zerocenturyzero after I read what you wrote I have now stoped drinking soya milk. I've been poorly and this could have cased it. I can't drink milk so will have to find some thing else to have. I might try lacto free milk, once again thank you. Have a lovely Christmas when it comes. 
nicolajaynehend No Problem. Try homemade Hemp Milk let me know if you notice a change.
zerocenturyzero I've never heard of hemp milk what's it made of and can I get it in Tesco. And yes I will let you know thank ever so much

nicolajaynehend Hemp milk, or hemp seed milk, is a plant milk made from hemp seeds that are soaked and ground in water. The result resembles milk in color, texture, and flavor. Hemp is conducive to being organically grown and labeled. Plain hemp milk may be sweetened or flavored.
Have not seen the product in Tesco
zerocenturyzero I've not seen it in my Tesco but I will check again. Thank ever so much for help and time and it looks very good. Will buy it when I see it and try it and let you know how I get on. Once agin thank you for take the trouble and time.
zerocenturyzero lol I’m a person made of pure acid! Alkaline might help...if i wanted it to 
I had a plan to based energy drink before I didnt drink it I gave it too my partner who said it was actually pretty nice!
I allergic to milk, so just buy soya. not covinced with the science of it being bad for you ( tomatos were causing cancer a few years ago)more concerned with the environmental impact. Also dairy free Baileys!
