With 75% of the global population being lactose intolerant, the rise of plant-based milks offers a significant alternative to dairy, addressing both health and environmental concerns.
Sales of plant-based milks reached 2.9 billion dollars in the US last year alone, exemplifying the growing demand for dairy alternatives among consumers.
A study found that while plant-based milks are environmentally friendlier with lower greenhouse gas emissions, they generally offer fewer nutritional benefits compared to cow's milk.
Brent Kim emphasizes the complexity in determining the best milk type, as various factors such as climate impact, nutrition, affordability, and resource use must be considered.
