celiac needing help w/milk alternative

[Guest guest]

<<... and am at a loss as to what

to give my kids and myself to drink as a milk substitute. I am

already so deficient with my calcium, but I don't want to us to gain

calcium while losing zinc. I don't want cow milk, and now I am

learning that soy milk is wrong too, but for different reasons.

Could someone out there help me figure this out?

In " Eat Fat, Lose Fat " by Mary Enig and Sally Fallon, there is a recipe for

a coconut milk tonic that they recommend to the dairy intolerant. It

contains the same amount of calories and calcium as an equivalent amount of

whole

milk.

 

1 can whole coconut milk

2 1/4 cups water

2 T maple syrup

1 t pure vanilla extract

1 t dolomite powder (very cheap-I got mine at Vitamin Shoppe)

 

Mix all ingredients together in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, and

heat until warm and dolomite is dissolved. Chill and keep refrigerated and

drink as you would milk. Above recipe makes 4 cups.
