Coconut milk is actually rich in fat content. So naturally people associate it with high cholesterol. But as per the United States Department of Agriculture data coconut milk does not contain any cholesterol at all.

But coconut milk contains quite a lot of saturated fat. As per the American Heart Association consumption of excess saturated fat can raise LDL Cholesterol (i.e., bad cholesterol) in your blood. High LDL Cholesterol in blood can increase the risk of stroke and heart disease. Hence, I would suggest you not to consume more than 50 grams of coconut milk a day.

In general peanuts are very good sources of protein. For example, boiled peanuts contain about 13.5% protein whereas fully dry roasted peanuts contain about 24.4% protein.

The difference in protein quantity of both these varieties is because of moisture content. 100 grams of boiled peanuts contain about 42 g of water whereas dry roasted peanuts contain as little as 1.8 grams of water.

The quantity of protein in sweet potatoes varies depending on the cooking method. But in general, they are poor sources of protein.

1 large baked sweet potato weighing 180 g contains about 3.6 g of protein. Whereas, boiled sweet potato of the same size has about 2.5 g of protein. 

The reason for this difference is when we boil this tuber the water content of it increases and hence the overall quantity of protein goes down.

Almond milk is available in the market in both sweetened and unsweetened versions. Typically, unsweetened almond milk provides about 36.5 Cal or 153 kJ of energy per cup. (i.e., 244 g).

The calories in sweetened version vary depending on how much sugar is added. Typically sweetened almond milk contains 91 Cal or 377 kJ of energy per cup (i.e., 240 g).

Sweetened almond milk contains more calories as sugar is added to it. 1 g of sugar provides 4 Cal or 16.7 kJ of energy.

Yes, almond milk contains protein but in very low quantity. A cup of unsweetened almond milk weighing 244 grams contains about 1 gram of protein.

On the other hand, whole milk contains about 8 grams of protein per cup (244 g) which is much higher compared to the almond milk.
