There are a lot of milk substitutes we opt these days, especially those who are lactose intolerant. The tastiest and most opted milk substitute is milk made by using cashew nuts. While the nutritional values of nondairy milk alternatives vary, if you’re going dairy-free, then nothing beats making your own “kaju-milk” at home.\u00a0Here are the top benefits of cashew milk and its recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"CASHEW<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

BENEFITS:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEALTHY HEART<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashew milk can improve the health of your heart. Most of the fat that cashews contain is the same healthy, oleic acid that is found in olive oil. Research has shown that oleic acid reduces triglyceride levels, which is associated with the onset of heart disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PREVENT GALL STONES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashew milk can help lower the risk for having gallstones. Gallstones<\/strong> are associated with healthy cholesterol levels; they\u2019re caused by hardened cholesterol, a result of too much cholesterol being present within the bile that circulates through the digestive tract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ANTI OXIDANTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashew milk reduces the occurrence of cancer to a great level as it has antioxidants like selenium and vitamin E which obstructs the free radical oxidation in the body and boosts the immunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CONTROLS BLOOD PRESSURE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The magnesium content helps to maintain the blood pressure and lowers down the high blood pressure. Its tendency of lowering the blood pressure helps in preventing the heart attacks. Lower level of sodium and higher level of potassium keeps the blood pressure under control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEALTHY BONES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Health benefits of cashew milk include promoting healthier bones. Cashews are especially rich in magnesium, which is needed, in addition to calcium that cashews also contain, for the maintenance of strong, healthy bone structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TREAT DEPRESSION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashew milk can even help treat depression. It has been claimed that a cup of cashew milk has the equivalent effect of a prescription anti-depressant. Cashews contain an amino acid, called L-tryptophan, which is broken down in the body into niacin and serotonin, compounds that calm anxiety and promote a sense of well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEALTHY SKIN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cashew milk supports healthy skin<\/strong> due to the presence of healthy essential fatty acids. Healthy sources of fat are needed to keep skin hydrated and free from irritation, flaking and premature aging. It is also a high source of copper<\/strong>, which helps with the production of the skin and hair pigment called melanin, as well as the formation of collagen<\/strong>, which supports skin\u2019s elasticity and defences against aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
