Hello!

The cow's milk rises glucose, I have heard, but I was wondering if any DB2 here in the forum takes light milk or lavish milk.

Or instead, are they totally forbidden and only take coconut milk or almond?

Thank you!!

Milk contains lactose that is a gluvid, whole milk, semi and skimmed has 5%lactose.
Soja milk has 3% and Light Soya 1.8% HC.
The coconut and almond is a matter of seeing the label, which I have seen have 15-18% HC.

Yes, well, it is practically water but the infusions are very good in almond drink (I don't like water)

Isabelbota@ It seems impossible for me to do without added sugar almonds has 0 HC, it cannot have almonds or have removed the HC, which would have a beastly cost.It must be a mistake.There are no miracles

It is easy to understand.The drink has 3% almonds, about 3 grams per 100ml, rest practically water.
The almonds have 5 spells of carbohydrates per 100gr, that is to say for a glass of 200 ml of almond drink would be 6gr of almond = 0.3 gr of carbos, that is almost zero, negligible.

According to my information easily to contrast by Google, the HC level in 100 g of almonds are 22 g.
Many times in the Super I have had in my hands a almond drink brick, mostly composed of water, and I have always returned it to the shelf for its HC content.I would love not to have a reason to have an alternative to the soy drink, of which I am already very boring.

I am sorry to take the opposite but with respect to the almond hydrates you are wrong not all Google info is true, you have to look at reliable sites.They are about 5, I buy them as always, I buy ground almond for cakes and they are 5/6 gr of hydrates, so the pastry with almond flour almost does not rise.
Almond drinks you've seen with hydrates is because they are sweetened.This is zero, without sweeteners and that is why it does not have almost carbos (less than 1gr per ml).
Of course, it is an alternative to the boring soy drink, I assure you that it does not rise, the water does not rise and is almost water.(I have a sensor, it is proven)


Note: The beer seen is for guests 😄😄😄
(It has no merit, I don't like beer)

Thank you for your clarification, I rejected me from Google data, but not one but several.The Brick that I have not bought in the Super to see the level of HC had no sugars or sweeteners added, specifically it was in Lidl, and the value of HC was much higher than that of the soy drink.I will look at him again when I return because I am very bored of the soybean drink and I am looking for alternatives.

"Coconut milk", "almond milk" ... according to AI, it is called milk by consistency, which is similar to milk ... but logical ... It is not milk ... :) :)

"The term" almond milk "is used colloquially to refer to a non -dairy drink from crushed almonds and water. Although it is called" milk ", technically does not meet the traditional definition of milk, which comes frommammals and contains specific nutrients.

The use of the term "milk" to name non -dairy products has generated some controversy and debate, since it is argued that it can be misleading for consumers.Some people believe that the use of the term "milk" should be restricted only to dairy products derived from animals.

However, it is important to highlight that the term "milk" has been used historically to describe liquids obtained from plant sources other than animal milk.For example, "coconut milk" or "soy milk" are also called that way, even if they are not dairy. "

Here in Spain those "milks" denominations are prohibited, and I think that in Europe too, so in the cartons you read drink of ... as for the one you have put, read the ingredients and then tell us

A non -full glass is usually 200 ml, so it will have about 2g of hydrates, as a half territy of sugar.I think you can take it without problem.
