Replacing dairy milk with soy

Many people drink dairy milk (from a cow) as a healthy source of calcium and protein. In every eight-ounce cup of dairy milk, there are eight grams of protein and twelve grams of carbohydrates. It?s also rich in other nutrients as well: one cup provides adults with about 30 percent of their daily calcium needs and about 50 percent of their vitamin B12 and riboflavin requirements. Despite these benefits, some people choose non-dairy milk, which includes soy milk, over the dairy kind due to allergies, intolerances, health reasons, beliefs, or personal preference. With that said, non-dairy drinkers need not worry ? commercially-available dairy milk alternatives are commonly fortified with added nutrients that can provide almost the same dietary value as dairy milk!
