Milk or Dairy Products – Allergies are Common!

Many people have allergies to milk and dairy products.  It is far more common than people realize.  Some children get tested at an early age for food allergies and sensitivities.  Other reactions to various types of foods develop over time, so they are not always apparent during youth.

If your body begins to produce mucous when you consume milk or dairy products, it is often a signal that you do have an allergy.  You can take any number of clinical tests to determine if this is the case for you.  You may also use the “elimination method’ to check your personal response.

Lactose intolerance is common.  If this is the issue for you, many manufacturers are making substitutes with soy or rice.

These new foodstuffs are tasting better all the time as advances are made with experience.  It is possible to completely eliminate dairy from your diet and satisfy the recipes with substitutes that maintain flavor and texture.

Give these healthy alternatives a try and you may find yourself pleasantly surprised.
