Vernal S. Packard of the University of Minnesota Extension dairy products program cautions that substitute dairy products may deliver lower protein and deficient vitamins and minerals. He notes imitation milks can provide only a fraction of real milk’s protein and overall nutrient content, risking reduced intake of calcium phosphorus magnesium riboflavin and vitamin B12 among consumers relying on the milk group for protein and minerals.
