Unsweetened almond milk, made from almonds and water, is a popular plant-based milk alternative originating from Mediterranean cuisine but widely embraced globally. One cup typically contains 30-40 calories, making it a low-calorie choice compared to dairy milk. Free of cholesterol and saturated fat, it supports heart health. It is naturally lactose-free, making it suitable for individuals with lactose intolerance, and vegan-friendly. Almond milk is fortified with calcium and vitamin D, contributing to bone health, and often contains added vitamin E, an antioxidant that supports skin health and immunity. However, it provides minimal protein—less than 1 gram per cup—compared to cow’s milk or soy milk, which may be insufficient for protein needs. Unsweetened versions avoid added sugars, making them a healthier option for managing blood sugar levels. Its creamy texture and subtle nutty flavor make it versatile for smoothies, coffee, cereals, and cooking recipes.
