Nutrition & Diets

Kara Dairy Free is a versatile and palatable dairy free alternative to milk and would be suitable if you need a dairy free diet for cow’s milk protein intolerance or lactose intolerance. Because Kara Dairy Free is free from soya it is also useful where there is soya intolerance. Being free of animal products it is also suitable for Vegans and Vegetarians.

It is not suitable as a sole source of nutrition for infants under 12 months of age as, like cow’s milk, it is not nutritionally complete.

There is no evidence to suggest that those with nut allergy should avoid Kara Dairy Free, as coconuts are a fruit and not a nut.

Food Allergy Diets

If you suspect that you or your child has a food allergy or intolerance then you should make an appointment to see your GP who will be able to carry out allergy testing or refer you to a specialist centre for testing. Your GP is also able to refer you to a Registered Dietitian if dietary changes are necessary.

Fat Reduced & Low Calorie Diets

The total fat content of Kara Dairy Free is similar to semi-skimmed milk, so anyone reducing their fat intake for health reasons would find it a useful alternative to full fat or whole cow’s milk. Studies of populations who rely heavily on coconut oil do not appear to have any greater risk of coronary heart disease.

The fat in Kara Dairy Free is 60% Medium Chain Triglycerides or MCT fat. Breast milk contains some MCT fat, but coconut is one of the very few natural sources of MCT fat in our diets. MCT fats are used in a different way in the body compared to long chain triglycerides (LCTs) and to other saturated fats. They are very efficiently converted into fuel by the body. They do not require bile salts for absorption and may be useful in people with malabsorptive conditions. The MCT fats in Kara Dairy Free (Caprylic Acid, Capric Acid and Lauric Acid) are also thought to have antibacterial, antimicrobial and antiviral properties and naturally occur in human breast milk.

Kara Dairy Free is lower in energy or kilo calories than skimmed and semi-skimmed milk, so is a useful alternative milk for those watching their weight.

Protein Restricted Diets

Kara Dairy Free is low in protein, so may be useful in diets where protein needs to be restricted. 100ml of Kara Dairy Free contains one 50mg phenylalanine exchange.
