According to the National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse, “some 30 million to 50 million Americans are lactose intolerant, including up to 75 percent of African Americans and American Indians and 90 percent of Asian Americans.

***It is easy to extract chufa milk from the nuts. Our milk is great, a little sweet, and lasts fresh for days in the fridge.

Perfect also great for the Keto diet requirements.
