Re: calcium/nutrition While there may be more calcium in lower fat milk products, we need the high fat content in order to absorb it. For folks who are "afraid" of saturated fats from unprocessed animal sources, I recommend checking out the Weston A Price Foundation's literature -- http://www.westonaprice.org For folks who can't do milk, rather than trying heavily processed nutrient draining soy alternatives, try coconut milk or coconut cream (do not use lowfat coconut milk). You can use a 1qt Tetrapak from any Asian grocery store (avoid canned). If you want to do yogurt for the probiotic health benefits, here's a blog post I found on making yogurt from coconut milk: http://www.smallfootprintfamily.com/2009/04/25/homemade-coconut-milk-yogurt/ Cultures for Health -- http://www.culturesforhealth.com sells a non-dairy yogurt starter for use with alternative "milks" - http://www.culturesforhealth.com/vegetal-dairy-free-yogurt-starter.html This is wonderful and very useful information. We receive a lot of calls about alternative milk yogurt-making. This should be very helpful to many, thank you! ~Amy
