Plant-based milk is a dairy-free alternative made from sources such as almonds, soy, oats, coconuts, cashews, rice, and more. Originating from various cuisines around the world as sustainable, vegan-friendly options, these milks are created by blending or soaking the base ingredient and straining the liquid. Nutritional profiles vary based on type but are often low in saturated fat and cholesterol, making them heart-healthy. Many varieties are enriched with calcium, vitamin D, and B12 to support bone health. Soy milk, in particular, is a good source of protein, while almond milk is low in calories. However, some versions may contain added sugars or thickeners, so reading labels is key. Plant-based milk suits lactose-intolerant individuals and those seeking eco-conscious or animal-free alternatives. With diverse flavors and uses, they are popular in smoothies, cereals, and baking.
