Nut-based milk

“Because dairy milk is very acidic, it can be difficult to digest,” says WelleCo’s Dr Simone Laubscher PhD. “Nut-based milks like cashew, almond and hemp, are far more alkalising to the body and easier for the human body to absorb. Given disease, like low energy, weight gain and sugar cravings, flourish in an acidic environment, it is important to eat a largely alkaline, plant-based diet. Cow’s milk is way more acid-forming than goat’s milk, and then almond and soy milk are even less than goat’s. Dairy is by far are the most acid-forming.”

For the most nutritious and highest quality nut milk, try making your own.

“I’m a hemp milk convert thanks to my last trip staying with Elle Macpherson in Arizona. No soaking is required - it’s instant and a great alternative for those wanting to avoid the cow. I make my breakfast smoothies with fresh hemp milk three days a week and almond milk for two. It’s easy.” -WelleCo CEO Andrea Horwood.
