Episode 388 Almond Deep Dive!

Author: Ali Miller RD March 25, 2024 Duration: 51:56

Are you using almond butter, almond milk, or almond flour as a household staple? We don’t want to burst your bubble, but in this episode we discuss concerns with glyphosate and almonds as over 85% of almonds are treated with this chemical. Go down the rabbit hole with us as we discuss glyphosate, oxalates, the environmental impact of almonds, and so much more. 

 

In today’s episode we will cover our honest take on almonds and how we plan to make shifts in our households as well as covering concepts of oxalates and anti-nutrients, if blanching matters and some potentially better alternatives.
