I periodically have clients who ask (or have done) a “juice cleanse” as a fresh start to their wellness journey. Most have seen health claims of weight loss or improved gut health on TikTok or Instagram. While some boast that they feel better since it helps their bowels move, few have seen any long-lasting effects. In reality, this trend could be harmful.

We know that a high-fiber diet and fermented foods help keep your gut microbiome flourishing, but did you know that protein sources may also impact it? 1 New research from North Carolina University suggests that protein in an animal’s diet may affect the population as well as the function of the microbiome. This research may lead to a better comprehension of how to prevent and treat gastrointestinal conditions that affect the quality of life of millions of people worldwide. 2

This blog post offers a comprehensive guide to selecting the healthiest milk option from your grocery store, whether you prefer dairy or plant-based alternatives. It emphasizes that the "best" milk depends largely on individual dietary needs and health goals, such as lactose tolerance, allergy concerns, protein requirements, and fat intake.

The article delves into the nutritional profiles of various milk types, including different kinds of cow's milk (whole, skim, lactose-free, A2, grass-fed) and popular plant-based alternatives like soy, almond, oat, hemp, pea, and coconut milk. For each, it highlights key nutritional aspects such as calorie, protein, fat (especially saturated fat), carbohydrate, calcium, and vitamin D content.

A key takeaway is the importance of checking nutrition labels, particularly for added sugars, thickeners, and fortification with essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin D, which can vary significantly between brands and types of milk. For those avoiding dairy, fortified soy milk often comes closest to cow's milk in terms of protein and nutrient density. Ultimately, the blog encourages readers to make informed choices based on their personal health considerations and preferences.
