What to know about rice milk
Rice milk is one of the calmer plant milks for the classic dairy triggers: it is naturally lactose-free, has no dairy protein, and rates low for histamine, salicylates and sulfites, so it suits people who react to cow milk or to more reactive plant milks. Its one real catch is oxalate. Rice milk grades high in oxalate, and it carries a moderate FODMAP load, so it is not automatically the best pick if you form kidney stones or have a sensitive gut.
Watch for
- High in oxalate (E): the standout caveat, worth knowing if you form calcium-oxalate kidney stones or are managing oxalate intake
- Moderate FODMAP (B): a large glass can bother an IBS-sensitive gut, though it is gentler on FODMAPs than oat or soy milk
- Often fortified and sweetened: check for added sugars, and note some brands add oils or gums that a few sensitive stomachs pick up on
