I bought oat milk for my cereal. Whilst rereading the label this morning I see it has 1 gram protein. My skim milk had 9 grams. I went searching to compare skim milk vs oat milk and found this: "One of the biggest and most important differences between oat milk's nutrition and dairy milk is the nutrient profile. Oat milk provides fewer nutrients than dairy milk, and most of the nutrients it provides are fortified. That means they're added during manufacturing, as opposed to occurring naturally". I understand there are different opinions about dairy vs plant based products. I try to be open minded about what I read. I don't think 'dairy' is contributing to my individual pmr/arthritic flare. Everyone's situation is unique. I'm going back to skim milk and save $3. I added blueberries to my whole grain cereal and banana this morning. That's a start to improving my diet.
