What milk powder should I drink if I am allergic to protein

The main food for babies around one year old is still breast milk or formula, because the baby's gastrointestinal function is not fully formed and it is difficult to digest solid food. Milk powder has high nutritional value and plays a great role in the baby's growth. However, some babies will have symptoms of protein allergy. Many milk powders contain a lot of protein, which can easily induce allergies. Therefore, it is very important to choose suitable milk powder. Let's take a look at what milk powder is better for babies with protein allergies?

The root cause of allergies is the imperfection of the gastrointestinal system. Certain allergens ingested can easily pass through the thin intestinal wall and enter the blood, causing allergic symptoms to appear on the body, face and other organs. The fundamental purpose of treating allergies is not to test out allergens from countless substances and avoid them, but to improve the gastrointestinal system. Current medicine does not advocate not getting proper nutrition in order to avoid allergies.

Therefore, you can eat milk powder containing probiotics to improve the gastrointestinal system. Once the gastrointestinal system becomes more complete, the allergic condition will improve. Babies who are allergic to cow's milk formula can drink breast milk or goat's milk powder, which do not contain -S1 casein and -lactoglobulin, and are less likely to cause allergies. Secondly, probiotics help fight allergies and can be added appropriately. Or you can choose special milk powder for babies who are allergic to cow's milk protein.

In fact, it is not just protein that can easily cause allergies in babies. Many high-protein foods can also easily cause allergies in babies. The protein in the baby's food enters the baby's body and is treated as an invading pathogen, causing an immune response, resulting in food allergy, which doctors call protein allergy. Mild symptoms of protein allergy in babies include eczema and urticaria on the skin, while severe symptoms can cause local or systemic reactions such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nasopharyngeal hypersensitivity, asthma, and even shock.

Common high-protein food allergies include milk, eggs, soybeans, wheat, nuts, peanuts, fish and shellfish. The main component of poultry eggs (hen eggs, quail eggs and egg products) that causes allergies is ovalbumin in egg white. The allergen of ovalbumin has poor heat resistance, and the chance of inducing allergies in poultry eggs that have been treated at high temperatures can be significantly reduced.
