I don't think it is actually nutritionally neutral, as it is calorie and protein dense. Hence, why I drink it. But I don't ascribe any magical properties to it.

I do agree with your overall point, as ethical reasons where why I was a vegetarian for ten years. But going vegan was, personally, a bridge too far. My quality of life was impacted too much by removing eggs and dairy as they were my main sources of protein - and still are.
- latch 12y agoDepending on where I'm living, I've struggled with this too. It's difficult in some cities/countries/cultures. I've found that, in most places, it's normally possible to find eggs produced by free-range chickens (ironically, typically at the extreme of fancy super markets or really poor ones). Milk I've been off for a long time, though I confess to enjoying a pizza once every couple months or so. I can normally avoid it though. Soy/tofu/tempeh, oats, nuts, legumes and quinoa are my major sources (quinoa can be hard to find though). I imagine soy-products might be less popular in Brazil?
