A member asked:
I have been diagnosed with g6bd since i was a kid . i was wondering what types of plant-based milk can i have ?? is soy and almond safe or will it kill me?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
With G6PD it is stated that soy should be avoided. You must learn what else to avoid, though. I suggest googling this important list. Your hematologist may also have a list for you.

Avoid soy,fava beans and other beans and bean products. Are you diagnosed or a carrier? Almond or Oat milk may be fine, but please discuss with your PCP.
