The Dairy Myth
Part Two — LACTOSE INTOLERANCE
Humans are the only animals that continue to consume milk into adulthood. No other specie drinks milk beyond infancy nor the milk of another species. Cow’s milk is made for their babies, suited to the nutritional needs of calves, not made for human consumption.
Most humans begin to produce less lactase, the enzyme that helps with the digestion of milk, when they are as young as 2 years old. This reduction in lactase can lead to lactose intolerance. More than 90% of Asians are lactose intolerant, symptoms include bloating, gas, cramps, diarrhea and vomiting.
You won’t find any diary products at Plants, instead we serve you nutritious and easy to digest alternatives like activated nut mylks, non-dairy cheesecakes and more!
[ Make your own CHOCOLATE MYLK ]
1 cup cashews
3 cups filtered water
6 pitted dates
3 Tbsp raw cacao powder
2 Tbsp raw cacao nibs
1 tsp vanilla
a pinch of cinnamon
and a high speed blender
1. Soak the cashews in filtered water with a pinch of salt overnight in bowl, keep it in the fridge.
2. Once it's done soaking, which gets rid of the natural occurring anti-nutrients in nuts, drain and rinse with filtered water and throw them into the blender along with all the other ingredients. Blend until smooth and voilà!
第 二 部 曲 — 乳糖不耐症
人類是唯一在長大後還吃乳製品的動物。小羊、小牛長大後也不會再喝母奶。事實上，因應人體與牛的構造不同，牛奶與人奶的成份其實是大不相同的，換句話說，適合別的動物的奶其實不見得適用於人體！
隨著年齡成長，人體中幫助消化乳醣的酵素會減少，所以在沒有酵素幫忙的情況下，又攝取乳製品，會導致乳糖不耐。根據研究統計，逾90%的亞洲人有乳醣不耐的情形。腸絞痛、腹瀉、腹痛、嘔吐等都是乳糖不耐的症狀，特別注意的是，有些嬰兒也是因為不適乳糖而有這樣的情形唷！
在Plants我們不提供任何乳製品，取而代之的是自製的喚醒堅果奶，不僅營養價值更高、更好消化，同時也更沒有負擔唷！
[ Plants 教妳/你做 – 巧克力腰果奶 ]
1 杯 生腰果
3 杯 過濾飲用水
6 顆 去籽椰棗
3 湯匙 生可可粉
2 湯匙 生可可仁
1 茶匙 香草精/香草粉
1 小撮 肉桂粉
1 台 高速 blender
1. 將腰果浸泡在加了一點點鹽的飲用水中，放入冰箱一個晚上。這是為了將堅果本身含有的抗營養因子去除。
2. 隔天把水瀝乾、用飲用水清洗後放入blender，加入所有其他食材，打到滑順就完成了！
