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!
