Is almond milk an acceptable substitute for milk?

I understand that we are abstinent from nuts in rfa. This makes perfect sense to me, as nuts are a food that I have consistently binged on in the past. (Even when I tried to use them in one of my dieting sprees. hah)

I am new to the food plan and at night I like to make a smoothie (fruit, half a serving of yogurt, half a serving of milk) for the metabolic adjustment. Almond milk has a much lower sugar content than even unsweetened soy milk and I enjoy it more. Plus, I have never had an issue with almond milk, nor has it triggered any kind of craving.

I'm wondering if it is acceptable with this food plan.

Thanks!!

Hi Alexa,
Are you allergic to cow's milk?
Feel free to call me if you want to talk about this; it may be easier than working it out in this forum.

I'm guessing that while the sugar content is low, the fat content of almond milk is high (again just a guess). Might be why you like it more than soy milk.
Certainly that's why we don't eat almonds on the plan.
