Cows milk protein intolerence

[samantha3]

Hi
I have 16mth old twins who were diagnosed with a cows milk intolerence
just after their 1st birthday. Do your meals cater for this type of problem and
do any of the books have any good recipes I could try for them.

my Dylan has just been diagnosed with this and it is such a pain. Its going to take a while to get used to, as I almost always use dairy in meals especially butter, cream,creme fraiche etc! Lactofree do a good range of stuff, I've gotten milk, cheese and yoghurts so far. Am now using that stuff in cooking instead of the normal stuff. Anything that Dylan isn't having though we have normal stuff-I still give Imogen petit filous and stuff like that. Spose we'll get used to it soon! good luck xxx

Hi I wondered how to tell whether it's milk allergy or milk intolerence? the hospital only did the skin prick test on my son.

ooooo my son has been diagnosed with a milk protein allergy and when i looked at some lactofree stuff, it was just lactose free (ie still contained milk protein) do they do actual dairy free stuff?

you'll be better off looking at the rice dream range or the alpro range which is soya based if its a milk allergy

Fortified oat milk is also a good alternative e.g for drinks, on cereal and in cooking
