I’ve got a bunch of  videos on Soymilk (https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/soymilk/) but I think only one major almond milk one so far, Prostate Cancer & Organic Milk vs. Almond Milk (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/prostate-cancer-and-organic-milk-vs-almond-milk/). I plan on doing a bunch more on choosing between various milk options, stay tuned.
