Guest guest Posted June 30, 2003 Report Share Posted June 30, 2003 I think that Rice Dream Enriched isn't so bad...I drank a lot of that at first...but now drink Edensoy Extra...if you get soy or rice or almond or any alternative milks, be sure that they are enriched with calcium and vitamins, otherwise there's not much reason to drink them (not much in the way of nutritional value)... There are vegan cheeses that are quite good...I'll see if I can find the exact info since I'm not at home and can't look in the fridge... Also as a side note, I've read that carageenan (a seaweed derivative) has been linked to stomach cancer...this is an ingredient that shows up a lot in vegan dairy imitation products...I try to consume as little of this as possible, although I'm sure a little is ok...

The truth is nobody really knows how the body works. The simplest way to be heatlhy is to eat a balanced diet of foods that are as close to their natural state as possible, get plenty of clean water, fresh air and exercise and to be happy. Worrying about food ingredients causes stress which is very bad for your health.

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2003 Report Share Posted July 4, 2003 The human body works in conjunctionw w/its environment...I think it's logical to be safe...I don't eat things with BHT, BHA or other known carcinogens in them, so it makes sense to be careful w/ other ingredients as well, even if they are " natural " . It doesn't cause me anymore stress than it does to read packaging for animal ingredients...which I assume most people on this list already do....and that is not stressful for me...thanks for worrying, though Quoting MrFalafel <mrfalafel: > --- shawnam wrote: > I think that Rice Dream > Enriched isn't so bad...I > > drank a lot of that at > > first...but now drink Edensoy Extra...if you get soy > > or rice or almond or any > > alternative milks, be sure that they are enriched > > with calcium and vitamins, > > otherwise there's not much reason to drink them (not > > much in the way of > > nutritional value)... > > > > There are vegan cheeses that are quite good...I'll > > see if I can find the exact > > info since I'm not at home and can't look in the > > fridge... > > > > Also as a side note, I've read that carageenan (a > > seaweed derivative) has been > > linked to stomach cancer...this is an ingredient > > that shows up a lot in vegan > > dairy imitation products...I try to consume as > > little of this as possible, > > although I'm sure a little is ok... > > > > > > You can find a study that says everything causes > cancer.
