In recent years, plant-based milk has become more popular for those following vegetarian diets.
Cow’s milk and soy milk contain more protein.
However, plant-based milk has fewer calories.
Cow’s milk contains calcium, vitamins A, B2, B12 and D. It also has magnesium, zinc, potassium and phosphorus. However, it also contains unsaturated fats, which is why we prefer skim milk.
Soy milk contains protein, calcium and vitamin D. But we choose unsweetened soy milk.
Almond milk contains fewer calories but also fewer carbohydrates as well as vitamin E. It has few unsaturated fats which are good for the heart. It is good for people with kidney problems since it does not contain potassium and phosphorus.
