Almond milk


A favorite in the dairy aisle, this nut milk is a top choice for those who are lactose intolerant or looking to 
swap out dairy. It has as few as 30 calories per serving plus the bonus of being low in saturated fat and cholesterol, making it a heart-friendly option. 

But certain brands contain carrageenan, a thickening agent derived from seaweed that has been linked to digestive problems, including inflammatory bowel disease, says Katie Cavuto, RD, a Philadelphia-based nutritionist. The good news is that many brands don't include it, so check the ingredients list and choose one without it if you're experiencing discomfort.
