When it comes to non-dairy nut milks that are best for gut health and boosting energy, she recommends macadamia milk, almond milk and pistachio milk.
Robinson explained that it’s so “glucose-heavy” that it’s “just going to cause more cravings during the day.”
She also claimed that the oats used to make the milk are ‘heavily sprayed’ with pesticides and chemicals, which ‘can affect our hormones over time’.
The pesticide glyphosate has been found in a number of oat-based products, according to research by Environmental Working Group.
“A lot of them have so many additives,” she said. “It’s very rare to find a clean one, especially when you’re ordering.”

“Why does the best have to be the worst lol,” replied another.
