Next up on our list of the 10 healthiest milk and milk alternatives for toddlers and kids is hemp milk. Yes, we’re talking about THAT hemp; the stuff that is illegal to produce in the U.S (though the laws are in the process of being upended) and which is often lumped together with its psychoactive sativa plant brother marijuana. Needless to say, hemp milk does not contain any THC and is quite healthy. It’s loaded with good fat and is also higher in protein than many of the milks that have preceded it on this list. However, many hemp milk brands will also have more added sugars than many other milk and milk alternatives. Hemp milk’s consistency is quite close to whole milk’s, making it a perfect substitute for cereal and cooking. Living Harvest and Pacific are among the leading hemp milk brands on the market.
