Hi I have been drinking almond milk for the past few months and then read that the ingredient carageenan is bad for you and that it causes tumors so I stopped drinking it and then I noticed it is in alot of stuff. Does anyone know if it is bad for you?

http://www.vegsource.com/articles/walsh_cohen1.htmscroll down this page and there is a bit on the carageenan issue and the "myth" about its dangers.

I had heard somewhere it was bad too and avoid it, but this is saying its ok.

I've been wondering about this too. I try to stay away from it though, because I feel awful after I consume it, and I figure that can't be good...
