I wanted to know good healthy alternatives of milk since I feel that milk is not so good for me and also it creates a lot of skin problems like breakouts, acnes and pimples....
So I was looking for alternatives of milk... I know I can use Almond or Soy Milk instead but would like to know more much better alternatives of milk...
How can I replace milk completely from my diet...and at the same time do not miss appropriate calcium intake...

And Most IMPORTANT of all,
(I am 20, is it ok if I completely stop consuming milk, will it affect my bone density)

Hi we drink milk for the protein content and Calcium .
If you are worried about your bones then have Calcium from other sources like dark green leafy vegetables like spinach,kale etc. Also some cereals like Ragi are rich sources of Calcium.
Also if you don't have problems, then can you have yogurt, lassi, paneer ? At 20 years if you are having a good balanced diet with plenty of green vegetables ,pulses and whole grains you can safely stop drinking milk.

Besides almond and soya milk you can try protein shakes if you are concerned about your protein intake.?

Hello,
According to your problem, I would like to suggest you the alternatives of milk are curd, buttermilk, other fermented products like dosa. For calcium intake you can consume leafy vegetables like drumstick, other vegetables which are high in calcium content, pulses, legumes are also gud source of calcium also. So if milk doesn’t suits you then it is ok, these alternatives u can consume in daily diet.

If u don’t like to eat leafy vegetable everyday then I can sun dry the leafs and make a fine powder of them. You can consume it directly with water or u can mix that 1 spoon of powder in any snack recipients and can preserve it e.g Khakara, baked muthery . Hope this is helpful for you.
