Califia Farms has launched a plant -based milk specifically designed for children. Labeled as “Complete Kids”, the dairy-free milk is made from peas, chickpeas, and fava beans but is nutritionally comparable to cow’s milk.
This plant-based milk contains essential nutrients which are present in traditional milk. A 240ml serving contains 8g of protein, 50mg of DHA omega-3, calcium, 55 mg of choline, and prebiotics. Besides, it is rich in vitamins A, D, and B12. However, it contains 50 percent less sugar when compared to regular milk.
Complete Kids is safe for kids and does not have any negative health consequences. It is also free from allergens because it is dairy-free, soy-free, and contains no tree nuts or peanuts. It means it is completely safe and nutritious for kids.
The milk has a rich and smoothie texture. Sip it directly or add it to cereals or smoothies. It is available for purchase online and in local grocery stores.
Consumption of dairy-free products has continuously been increasing globally. Straits Research, based in Pune, India, valued the global dairy alternatives market at $23 billion in 2021 and projects it will reach $65.33 billion by 2030.
The US is also witnessing an increase in demand for dairy-free products. To meet this demand the number of plant-based brands is continuously increasing in the country.
Greg Steltenpohl founded Califia Farms, a popular beverage company, in 2010. Initially, it offered juices but later expanded to include plant-based products in response to growing demands for dairy-free products.
Currently, it offers dairy- free juices, creamers, coffees, and milks such as coconut, almond, and oat milk. With the exception of Organic Oatmilk, Califia Farms products are gluten-free. Additionally, they come in recyclable packaging_ whether that’s plastic bottles, caps, or labels.
