I liked the article but it could have been much simpler and shorter. I believe that non-dairy "milk" can be healthy, but I look for a few things on the label: the package should contain almost no carbohydrates and no added oil.

I just checked out our pantry, and indeed, the oat "milk" we have has more carbohydrates than I want, so that is off our shopping list. Other milk substitutes that I just checked met my criteria (various nut "milks", and hemp seed "milk").

Goodbye oat milk!

The low fat version of Oat-ly has no oil added. It’s not like the company is giving you no choice but to buy a product with “controversial” ingredients.

It turns out that oat "milk", even without oil added, has a lot of carbohydrates, some in the form of natural sugar.
