Milk and dairy products have been promoted as a healthy and vital source of calcium in American propaganda, such as the “Got milk?” ads, but they are not. According to research, they are the leading sources of saturated fat linked to cancer, heart diseases, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease.
In reality, about 30 million people in the United States are lactose intolerant, which means they cannot properly digest milk and most dairy products. But why are these foods being promoted as a necessary component of the so-called balanced diets? It’s misleading when over 10% of Americans can’t even consume them without upsetting their stomachs. Of course, the answer is that it brings money to sell these lies as it generates profit for the firms that manufacture them.
Now that you know that you’ve been lied to, you can fight against these misleading marketing campaigns profiting from making you unhealthy. You can choose non-dairy milk or go vegan if you can. Unfortunately, changing into a plant-based diet may be challenging for folks who have a sweet tooth.
But the good news is that most of the sweet food you love has a vegan equivalent that you can make in your kitchen. They are easy to make, and you can bake them between your work, whether you have demanding work as an assisted senior living advisor or as a company CEO.
Vegan Desserts Are Life-Savers
