Almond milk can be used to substitute dairy milk in your diet to reduce your calorie intake and increase the amount of vitamins and minerals you are getting. Almond milk has significantly less calories and carbs in it than dairy milk, while still retaining the same texture and consistency. The milk still contains the essential fats you would expect from milk and has a reasonable protein content. Calcium content is on of the major perks of dairy milk, and almond milk provides an equal amount, while including high quantities of vitamin E, manganese, selenium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, fibre and phosphorous.
Being so rich in vitamins means that almond milk is a very good antioxidant, keeping your body healthy and flushing out the toxins. The low calorie content means that you can have this instead of dairy milk with oat or a protein shake as part of your cutting diet while still keeping your calorie and carb intake down.
