Frequently asked questions

Which intolerances does Almond Milk affect?

Almond Milk is notable for oxalates, histamine, salicylate, tyramine and nickel. Clear on sucrose, FODMAPs, lactose, oligosaccharides, sorbitol, fructose and gluten.

Does Almond Milk contain oxalates?

Yes — Almond Milk is high in oxalates. Almond milk is mostly water, and it is still high here - because oxalate is water-SOLUBLE, so it moves into the liquid during soaking and blending and stays there when the solids are strained out. Straining removes the almond and keeps the oxalate.

Does Almond Milk contain histamine?

Almond Milk contains moderate levels of histamine. Almond milk is mostly water with a few per cent almonds, so the nut's own liberator standing arrives heavily diluted - the additives are the larger part of the answer here. Check for flavourings and long shelf life rather than for the almonds.

Does Almond Milk contain salicylate?

Almond Milk contains moderate levels of salicylate. Almond milk is mostly water — typically a few percent almond — which is why it lands well below the nut itself. Neither study publishes a value for this particular drink.

Does Almond Milk contain tyramine?

Almond Milk contains only low levels of tyramine. Almond milk is unfermented and mostly water. Plant milks have been surveyed for biogenic amines and the unfermented ones come back low; it is the cultured versions - the yogurts and the aged nut cheeses - that move. Amounts vary by brand and recipe, so always check the label of the exact product.
