However, it is a condition that more commonly affects the paediatric population. Diagnosis for cow\u2019s milk allergy can be difficult and can often be confused with cow\u2019s milk\/ lactose intolerance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ll highlight the differences and similarities between milk allergies and milk intolerance, the underlying causes of a cow\u2019s milk allergy, common questions that one may encounter, and practical ways to deal with cow\u2019s milk allergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is milk allergy and milk\/lactose intolerance the same thing?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-16-1024x682.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16782\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-16-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-16-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-16-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-16-1536x1023.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-16.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A milk allergy can trigger an exaggerated immune response in the body, causing symptoms such as rashes or hives.\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>No, a milk allergy and milk\/lactose intolerance are different.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Milk allergy is an immune response to milk proteins. The body mistakenly identifies these proteins as harmful, producing specific antibodies against it. Upon repeated exposure to these proteins, the immune system triggers an exaggerated antibody response, leading to a cascade of chemical immune reactions, which manifest as signs and symptoms of milk allergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lactose intolerance occurs due to the lack of the enzyme lactase, which is needed to digest lactose \u2014 a sugar found in milk. A milk protein intolerance is a non-allergic sensitivity to milk proteins, such as casein or whey.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can I differentiate milk allergy from milk\/lactose intolerance?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In milk\/lactose intolerance, one develops unpleasant gastrointestinal symptoms when they are unable to digest lactose effectively due to reduced amount of lactase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The poorly digested lactose in the gut is subsequently being fermented by gut bacteria causing uncomfortable irritable-bowel-syndrome-like symptoms such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Bloatedness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Abdominal cramps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Diarrhoea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Constipation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nausea<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Contrary to milk or lactose intolerance, an individual with a true milk allergy will not be able to tolerate any amount of milk, while in the case of lactose intolerance, one may still be able to tolerate a small amount of milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of milk allergy responses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Immediate IgE related<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of allergy can occur very fast within seconds to minutes upon consumption of cow's milk. In IgE related allergy response, once the body is exposed to the 'allergen' protein, there will be an immediate trigger of a cascade of inflammatory allergic response and release of IgE antibodies, leading to an acute allergic reaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delayed IgE related<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of allergy tends to occur slower over a period of hours up to 3 days after consumption of cow\u2019s milk. The immune response tends to develop progressively over time, and usually this is non-IgE related, immune response can often drag on with symptoms for days to even weeks. One commonly confused the symptoms of delayed response with milk\/lactose intolerance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the signs and symptoms of cow\u2019s milk allergy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Milk allergy symptoms can occur within the first few months of human life (within the first 6 months of life), though less commonly symptoms can occur in adulthood. There is a spectrum of severity of milk allergy symptoms, making nailing the diagnosis difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rapid reaction&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Within hours after consumption of milk. Symptoms include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Itchy and tingly lip, mouth throat<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, throat, eyes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Difficulty in breathing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wheezing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vomiting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rashes (hives) on the body<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anaphylaxis<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delayed reaction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From hours to days after consumption of milk.

Casein is also found in high quantities in cheese, and can be used as a food additive\/ emulsifier to stabilise processed food.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whey protein is the left over from milk when it is coagulated during the formation of cheese. Whey protein makes up 20% of cow\u2019s milk, and about 60% of human milk. Whey protein is made up of 2 major proteins known as alpha-lactalbumin, beta-lactoglobulin.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whey protein is commonly seen in yoghurt and protein supplement (in building muscle mass). Whey protein can also be used as a food thickener.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What type of food commonly has cow\u2019s milk protein?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-17-1024x684.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16783\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-17-1024x684.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-17-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-17-768x513.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-17-1536x1025.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/dbclinic.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/image-17.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Foods containing milk protein should be carefully avoided by individuals with milk protein allergies to prevent allergic reactions.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Common foods with milk protein include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>fresh cow\u2019s milk<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>evaporated\/UHT\/condensed milk<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ghee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>cheese<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>yogurt<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>margarine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ice cream<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>cream<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>curds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>calcium or sodium caseinate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>whey powder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>whey protein<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>skimmed milk powder<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>non-fat milk products<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>lactoglobulin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>lactoalbumin<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Reading food labels is important to pick up any cow\u2019s milk protein content.

In severe allergic response or anaphylaxis, one will require adrenaline injection or medical emergency to reverse the allergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As cow\u2019s milk allergy is commonly seen in children, it is imperative to ensure the child still receives a healthy balanced diet and is taking supplements to replace the common nutrients that are found in milk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Breastfeeding is encouraged especially if the infant has cow\u2019s milk allergy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As cow\u2019s milk protein can be passed from mother who consumed it to the child through breast feeding, the mother should avoid food that contains cow\u2019s milk protein if the infant has cow\u2019s milk allergy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternative options such as soy formula milk may not be useful as some children may also have soy protein allergy. Due to high protein allergy cross-reactivity, those with cow\u2019s milk protein are usually not suitable to take goat\u2019s milk as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding and determining the allergic components in milk proteins can aid prudent food selections to avoid allergy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What have I learnt today?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There are overlapping symptoms between cow\u2019s milk allergy and lactose intolerance.
