Show Notes

Plant based dairy milk alternatives have exploded in popularity which is great news for people with allergies to dairy or lactose intolerance. For many of us, we choose them because they taste good and some of them, like oat milk, have better environmental credentials than cow's milk.

Alternative milks have quite different nutrition profiles so it is helpful to know how your favourite milk stacks up when it comes to protein, energy or carbohydrate content.

In this Five Minute Food Facts episode I break all that information down for you so you can choose the milk (or milks) that best suit your needs.
