No, milk is not Paleo! Milk has long been associated with good health and is one of the most consumed drinks in the world. Several studies have shown that milk consumption can lower the risk of cardiovascular diseases, lowered blood pressure and bone health.<\/p>\n But for strict followers of the Paleo diet, milk as with any other dairy products is not Paleo. Dairy was not something consumed by the Paleolithic era people. It was actually a Neolithic era food. \u00a0And milk was only consumed by infants until weaning. Milk and other dairy consumption do and can cause problems to most people. \u00a0Many scientific studies have shown the health effects of drinking milk. Some of them are as follows:<\/p>\n Since milk is dairy and should be avoided in the Paleo diet, there are some recommended substitutes for it.<\/p>\n Whole Coconut Milk<\/strong><\/p>\n Coconut milk is the first milk substitute in the Paleo community. It is extracted directly from whole coconuts. It has a thick, creamy texture and delicious taste. It normally comes in can and is solid at room temperature. Water can be added to it for easy drinking.<\/p>\n Coconut milk is high in medium chain fatty acids, a healthy saturated fat. It is rich in fiber, vitams, iron, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus.<\/p>\n Nut Milks<\/strong><\/p>\n Nut milks can also be used as substitute for milk. The most common nut milks are almond,cashew, hazelnut or hemp milk. These milks can be found in the grocery stores but it would be better to create your own as some nut milks sold in the market contain additives and unnatural ingredients.<\/p>\n Almond milk is the most common nut milk. It is made from water and almonds. Unlike coconut milk, almond milk contains minimal carbohydrates, protein, and fiber. Its flavor works best for home made lattes.<\/p>\n \u201cHuman mother\u2019s milk is extremely healthy for the suckling new born infant and baby until weaning, which typically occurred in hunter gatherers at about 2-3 yrs of age.\u00a0 Drinking of cow\u2019s milk or other species\u2019 milk by children and adults is an unhealthy practice that increases the risk of many chronic diseases and adds no micronutrients to the diet that cannot be obtained from fresh vegetables, fruits, meats, seafoods and nuts.\u00a0 Human\u2019s have no nutritional requirement for cow\u2019s milk.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Loren Cordain<\/a><\/p>\n The Paleo Diet.
