Plant-based, raw, and never from a cow. but wait...i thought "milk" was good for me? not when the animals are drugged with artificial hormones or pasteurized to destroy any or all of the good stuff. humans are the only species in the world that drink another animals' milk. hmmmm. using 100% raw shelled almonds, the build me up is high in protein and omega-3 fatty acids which help lower your levels of "bad" ldl cholesterol to protect your heart. simple and creamy, this concoction is rich in flavor and zero in added preservatives (e.g. xanthan gum found in your typical grocery almond milk, also found in body wash). between workouts or as a great breakfast mixer, choose the right "milk" to nourish and replenish.
