Dairy-free yogurts can help stave awayinflammation often triggered by dairy productsfor folks with dairy sensitivities or intolerances.
Of course, non-dairy yogurt has been around for some time now.
You could say the culture (ahem) has definitely changed.
But, just like other food categories, not all non-dairy yogurts are created equal.

I reached out to a registered dietitian for tips on how to choose the most nutrient-rich ones.
What should I look for in a good non-dairy yogurt?
You dont have to give up yogurt if youre giving up dairy, Gorin says.
(You knew that was coming right?)
Then, you might sweeten it up yourself with herbs when you get home.
Some non-dairy yogurts are made withgums, which may cause digestive distress for some folks with sensitivities.
If its on the low-side, just add somenut butter or granolabefore you dig in.
Otherwise, chances are that youll be hungry soon after enjoying your yogurt.
What are the best non-dairy yogurt options available?

But despite loving other Silk products (theyre sitting in my fridge as we speak!
), Im not a big fan of this yogurt.
Maybe the companys oat milk and almond milk varieties are better picks.
Its one of the besthigh-protein milk alternatives.
A cup of soy milk can contain up to around nine grams of protein.

And after removing the lid completely, I have to admit: the raw coconut-based product definitelydidlook alive.

And luckily, it didnt disappoint.
In fact, I think I like it even more than the types I ate regularly in the past.
What a RD thinks of coconut milk:Unsweetened coconut milk has a nice creamy texture.
