For those who can't handle or don't drink dairy milk, soy milk was found to be the most nutritious milk alternative in one 2018 study. "Milk is also high in nutritional value for those who tolerate it, since it is a good source of protein, an excellent source of calcium and contains other vitamins and minerals like vitamin B2 and iodine," Weinandy tells Bustle. Milk has always been there for you, hasn’t it? Touted as an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D since you were a child, it may seem like less of a grown-up drink than other options, but milk is a great source of protein and other essential micronutrients. So what do you do when you want more bev options but want to keep it on the healthy-ish side? Here are seven of the healthiest beverages you can wash down a meal with, that aren't water. Liz Weinandy, a registered dietician from The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, agrees, tells Bustle that "Water is really the 'gold standard' when it comes to hydrating our bodies," but that we can get hydration and other benefits from herbal teas or foods with a high water content. "In order to remain hydrated, which essentially means that our water intake and outtake are balanced and we are not excreting or retaining too much fluid, we need to ensure that we are consuming electrolytes," which are found in - you guessed it! - other healthy beverages. "Water is essential for hydration, but what it doesn’t contain are essential electrolytes that are the fundamental backbones of hydration," Gabrielle Mancella, a registered dietitian at Orlando Health, tells Bustle.
#Healthy drinks plus#
But a zillion other healthy drinks give you the health boosts of water, plus some. Water is a healthy and safe bet, sure - it always tastes the same (good) and you need it for hydration (better). There are only so many times you can say, “Just water for me, thanks,” when the waiter asks before you start to get bored.
