For three years Olivia Ross has been dairy-free; she has never felt better. “I first felt I would be missing cheese and milk,” Olivia explains.
But I came over so many incredible substitutes that I hardly felt deprived at all. Her best advice for adopting a dairy-free diet and succeeding in clean eating is here.
Start with milk based on plants.
Olivia says, “Everyone can enjoy a plant-based milk.” Among choices are almond, oat, soy, and coconut milk. She notes, “I love oat milk for baking and almond milk in my morning coffee.”
Experiment with Dairy-Free Cheeses
“Dairy-free cheese has evolved greatly,” Olivia notes. She advises sampling coconut oil-made cheeses or nut-based varieties. Her preferred shredded dairy-free mozzarella for pizzas or grilled sandwiches is.
Load Up on Nutrient-Dense Foods
“A diet free of dairy forces you to investigate other foods high in nutrients,” Olivia says. Her classics are avocados, leafy vegetables, almonds, and seeds. “These dishes load in vitamins and good fats.”
Try Coconut Yogurt
Ignoring yoghurt? Olivia offers substitutes based on coconut foundations. “Add some granola and fresh fruit; you have a filling breakfast or snack,” she advises.
Read Labels Carefully
“You would be surprised how many items have secret dairy,” Olivia says. She counsels looking over ingredient lists for words like lactose, casein, and whey.
Olivia claims that by changing her diet, she not only cut dairy but also embraced a more thoughtful, cleaner style of eating. “Going dairy-free has changed my energy level and complexion,” she notes. “For everyone trying to raise their general health, it is worthwhile.”
