Carrageenan

Carrageenan is something that seems to be in everything. It's used a thickener and I'm finding that the difference in my body after I consume almond milk that contains it, is not something I should ignore. My stomach gets bloated and heavy when I consume products with it. While it is extracted from red seaweed it still creates a difference in my body. When I was doing whole30, I was flatter all day but now if I consume almond milk (silk to be specific) in the morning, I get bloated more quickly. Maybe it's vanity and maybe it's comfort but I think I'm going to say bye bye to products with carrageenan.

Some products without carrageenan:

Silk pure almond milk
Trader Joe's refrigerated almond milk
So Delicious coconut milk and almond milk desserts


That's my tip of the day!
