A vegan diet or plant-based diet excludes all animal products, including meat, dairy, and eggs. When you follow it correctly, a vegan diet can be highly nutritious, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and improves children’s mental health and well being.

If you have an infant at home, and you want him to follow a vegan diet like you, then you have to start early. You can start by selecting the right vegan milk for your little one which can be tough. But childcare experts of Preschool San Dimas, CA are here to help you out. Below they shared some tips which will help you to choose good milk for your baby. 

Soy Milk

Nowadays organic milk is highly available in the market but these are nothing but fat-free milk. Babies need cholesterol and fat in their milk. To bring it into powdered form, it has to go through an intense process and most of the time the final product is devoid of nutrients. So, it is better to go for soy-based formulas. These are suitable substitutes where breastfeeding is not possible. Soy milk is higher in protein than its other counterparts. 

Oat based milk

Oat based drinks are also higher in calories than some other options. These drinks often include added calcium and are a great source of beta-glucans, which can help support heart health. But please note that oat-based milk is low in fat.

Rice milk

You can go for rice-based milk also as it tends to be higher in calories than some other available options. But these milk also contain low fat. Some rice-based milk contains added vitamins and calcium. So, caregivers of Day Care San Dimas CA always suggest parents check the product details before you buy any rice b-based milk.

Nut milk & Coconut milk

The good news is there is an ever-increasing range of nut-based and coconut-based milk products you can choose from. But please make sure he is not allergic to nuts or coconut. Though both of these options are low in the fat quotient but are great in taste. 

Hope this blog post will help you to make an informed decision for your kiddo.
