Harmful health effects of carrageenan

Carrageenan has been shown to cause numerous health problems, especially in the gastrointestinal tract. Research has shown that exposure to carrageenan could cause ulcers in the colon and possibly even contribute to GI cancers. In 1972, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considered a restriction on dietary carrageenan, but no regulation was put into effect, which means that manufacturers are free to use this product at their discretion.

First used as a food additive in the 1930s, carrageenan is also used as a laxative, a treatment for peptic ulcers, and in toothpaste, room deodorizers, pesticides, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical drugs. In 1959, carrageenan was granted GRAS (generally regarded as safe) status. It easily combines with milk proteins and has been used as a substitute for fats in food. It can be found in cottage cheese, whipped cream, ice cream, infant formulas and processed meats.
(otra cosa que hace el carrageenan es que afecta la TIROIDE) He leído los ingredientes de otra de cajita blanca y NO dice que contiene carrageenan, pero no sé si lo omitieron y  lo tiene. Existe leche de arroz, de coco, y otras, como alternativas de leche.



Prepare your own almond milk or back to soy !!
Prepara tu propia leche de almendras
  • 2 paquetes de almendras crudas y sin sal
  • 4 cucharadas de azúcar  (stevia)
  • 1 galón de agua
 Lo primero que hay que hacer es remojar las almendras en un recipiente con agua desde la noche anterior (8 horas como mínimo).
Al día siguiente, escurre las almendras y lávalas con abundante agua. Puedes quitarle la piel si deseas.
Pon las almendras en una licuadora con el azúcar  y el agua, y bate como por 2 minutos.
Cuela la leche en un colador muy fino para que puedas separar el líquido del resto de las almendras. Puedes volver a licuar las almendras que quedaron hasta que la leche te salga totalmente líquida.
Vierte la leche en una botella, métela en la nevera y disfrútala sola o con chocolate en polvo, en café, batidas… ¡las opciones son infinitas!
