Plant-based Milks (S8 Ep. 57)

Got milk? The answer is complicated.  While plant-based beverages are accused of posing as animal by-product imposters, the FDA claims that consumers know the difference.  But most parents don't recognize that plant-based milks lack the same micro and macronutrient profile as cow's milk or soy milk.  This leaves pediatric providers with the very important job of assessing nutrition and guiding parents on what beverages their infants and toddlers should be drinking.
