Garbage, unless you're lactose intolerant. Shit's like 80 calories for a cup with hardly any fucking protein AT ALL.
Drink milk fgt
Michael Bell

>Drinking liquid cholesterol, saturated fat, and estrogen causing hormones.
There are plenty of healthier foods to get protein and calcium from good choice op.
Jaxson Thomas
it's expensive for the nutrients you get, but other than that, it's good
Noah Williams
>estrogen causing hormones
Can’t comment, got a source?

Think of it this way: An estrogen molecule is like a jumbo jet that attaches to the Jetway of an airport. It discharges passengers into the terminal, which is suddenly a busy, noisy place. Phytoestrogens, being weak estrogens, are like small, private planes with few passengers and no cargo, yet they still occupy the Jetway after landing. When phytoestrogens occupy the cell, normal estrogens cannot. Plant estrogens do not eliminate all of estrogen's effects, but they do minimize them, apparently reducing breast cancer risk and menstrual symptoms

good for gains? probably not as its 90% water. But as a sub for dairy milk it works great, just get protein elsewhere and you'll be fine
Charles Lewis
Almonds are a huge source of estrogen

Get he unsweetened kind and it’s a good milk substitute. Or coconut milk. No reason to drink it by itself but I use it for protein shakes
Ryder Allen
If activated, yes
Daniel Lopez
what about skim milk ?
Chase Ross
Where is the source?
James Young
better off not drinking milk altogether
Brody Allen
:( , normal milk makes me sick feelsbadman , never be able to drink milk like papa rippetoe
David Campbell
No it's not you faggot.
Joshua Taylor
honestly just buy unsweetened almond milk and you'll be fine. get the protein from dietary sources, you want to minimise liquid calories anyway (lack of nutrition)...i have unsweetened almond milk and it's fine, taste is noticeably different but it's not awful. it's one of the sacrifices you have to make to be healthy
Angel Stewart
Dolphin milk is high is phytohytobytestosterone.
Also bery rare and hard to aquire
Landon Sanchez
I drink it when on keto cause at least it's not water
Benjamin Gomez
Almonds contain phytoestrogens, yes, but not all phytoestrogens are created equally.
The Phytoestrogens in Soy act as estrogens, in place of estrogens, but can have hormonal effects when the sugar is removed (through processing or fermentation...miso). Apparently only a small percentage of people will see hormonal differences from eating soy even when fermented.
Flax is similar but has an anti-estrogen property where it takes the place of estrogens and might cause the body to produce less which makes it bad for women..or good, depending on the point in life.
I have a tablespoon of ground flax in every breakfast I make because of its effects on arteries. Lignans, man.
Camden Edwards
It's not milk, it's crushed almonds mixed with water and sugar. You're not even getting the nutrients of the whole almond
Brody White
but soy is good too.. did you perhaps fall for a meme?
Levi Wilson
Source or gtfo
Aaron White
It's just a substitute for milk if you can't drink it, for acne or intolerance etc
Josiah Butler
a couple of brands have started tossing pea protein into almond milk to even it out. shits dope
Isaiah Thompson
What about coconut milk?
Landon Allen
yea i love milk but unless you're trying to gain weight, don't drink it
Asher Diaz

Less calories probably. If you want to gain weight then drink whole milk if you can.
