Soy yoghurt is an essential part of my daughter's calcium intake. She has it every night, as long as she has eaten enough of her dinner (vegetables specifically - she's such a carnivore!) because, apart from milk, it's her only big calcium product in her diet. Click here for other calcium ideas.
We currently use Soy Life Yoghurt, either vanilla or blueberry. You can get mango/apricot but she didn't like it. They come in 2 packs and tend to last us 4 nights. A tub is 26% of Recommended Daily Intake for Calcium. The other option is Kingland Yoghurts (not a great website unfortunately) that come in a 4 pack. They are good but not as economical for us at this stage.
My daughter is really a carnivore too. I am sure soy is healthier than the sugar my kids eat for dessert but have you read up on the health dangers just so you know??? Also, molecule is similar to gluten molecule. But if you are okay with it, don't worry about that. Here is a link to info about the dangers of soy...

Thanks for your blog comment. Feel free to recipes on my blog!
Thanks for your comment. I checked the website and Soy Life products aren't genetically modified so I have no concerns about it at all. Kingland may use GM soy, but I can't be sure.
ReplyDeleteAnd she doesn't react to it like she does to gluten, so it's all good :)
