Holistic Chef Discusses Dairy-Free and Healthy Alternatives

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) – With the demand for dairy-free alternatives on the rise, consumers are increasingly seeking options that cater to lactose intolerance, vegan lifestyles, or simply a desire for healthier choices. 

This shift is evident across various food categories, from plant-based milks to non-dairy cheeses and desserts. 

In the past year, one in three households purchased lactose-free dairy milk, with significant growth observed in major retail channels. 

We met with holistic private chef Jane Olivia about her thoughts on this alternative.

Jane Olivia, Holistic Private Chef, stated “so aside from the health benefits that some people make experience with eliminating or slightly limiting their dairy intake.” 

“I think that people are really looking for higher protein, meals, and nutrition intake so I think protein is what Americans are honestly really looking for.” 

As more Americans become health-conscious, the shift towards dairy-free options is expected to continue.

With influencers like Jane Olivia, who has over 1.6 million Tik Tok followers, they are leading the charge, the future of food looks both innovative and inclusive.
