The Most Harmful Coffee Drink Has Been Named 0 6

Endocrinologist and nutritionist Elvina Binatova advised to refrain from consuming coffee with plant-based milk whenever possible.

"When it comes to plant-based milk, the most important thing to pay attention to is its composition. In most cases, it contains a lot of hidden added sugars, thickeners, and chemical additives. One of them is carrageenan, which causes inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract," the doctor warned.

According to her, plant-based milk contains significantly less protein than cow's milk. For this reason, thickeners and stabilizers, which are also not very healthy, are added to make the foam on the coffee last longer.

Binatova emphasized that it cannot be said that almond, rice, or soy milk is healthier and better than cow's milk. In this regard, she recommended that only people with diagnosed lactose intolerance choose plant-based milk instead of cow's milk.
