My 10 month old and food allergies!

Is very allergic to milk and milk/dairy products. He has severe eczema and can't have anything with milk products or he breaks out in a horrible, severe rash that he can't stop scratching at. He was put on Alimentum and it hasn't done any good..my aunt, who is also lactose intolerant, was reading the ingredients and said that there is milk based products in the Alimentum. So I took him off of formula completely (He will be 11 months this month-Aug.) and put him on Rice milk and his skin has already started clearing up!! My question is--Does anyone have a recipe for homemade Rice milk that is more catered to babies or will any Rice milk recipe do? I have found a few good recipes but wasn't sure if babies needed added ingredients. He is also eating homemade food..meaning I buy raw fruits and veggies and cook them etc. because the baby food also has added stuff that he is allergic to. Thanks so much for all of your help!My 10 month old and food allergies!
This can indeed relate to your little ones allergies.



The information below is often overlooked or missed by both patients and physicians.



This is the best Allergy info.



Being a nurse with over 25 years experience, I have seen a lot of patients with similar illnesses and disorders.



Many Allergy and Asthma problems are caused from common everyday chemicals and fragranced products as well as VOC's in homes, schools and workplace.



This is a growing problem for many people and most are not even aware that it exists as more and more chemicals are being introduced and used on a daily basis.



Many people believe that because a product smells good or cleans well and it is on a store shelf that it is tested, approved and safe for use.

Think again !



We are now seeing more and more children and adults with skin disorders, nausea, Allergies, Headaches, Sinusitis, Migraines, Asthma, Chronic Hives, Eczema, sinus / respiratory illnesses and Hormone related disorders.



I can not emphasize how important it is to educate yourself about the harm you may be doing to your health by using chemicals and fragranced products.



Most doctors will not inform you about this because patients as a whole like to walk out of a doctors office with a prescription for some magical medicine and they do not want to be told that their expensive new perfume or newly installed carpet or fresh house paint may be the culprit. Also, many patients do not want to change their lifestyle to accommodate their new illness. Infact, I have even witnessed patients who increase or take multiple medications for their allergy or asthma just so that they can continue to wear their perfume or use Bounce or Febreeze. The doctor will give patients medications even though often times these meds do not eliminate the problem or often times cause other health problems because they are an added chemical in the body.



Chemicals and fragranced products are often the root of many disorders and illnesses when it comes to your health. Many of the below mentioned items are common triggers to sinus, asthma, itching, headaches, Migraines and allergy problems amongst other health issues. Get rid of them and your immune and respiratory system will thank you and you will breathe easier.



And, it is not only personal body or cleaning products causing havoc on your health鈥?many people become ill after wearing brand new clothing, dry-cleaned clothes, installing new carpet, painting, buying a new mattress or after home renovations because of the Flame Retardants, Antimony, Benzenes, Formaldehydes, etc. used in these products. So the answer is NO, you are not imagining that 2 weeks after your home, office or classroom got renovated you started to become ill, get dizzy or have headaches. This is happening more and more these days and adults as well as children are becoming sicker and sicker.



Unfortunately, too many doctors compound the problem by prescribing chemical medications to try to alleviate the symptoms of an already chemical overloaded body and they rarely tell the patient to eliminate the chemical offenders. How many times have I seen people in the grocery store with Bounce, Glade Plug-Ins and Febreeze in their shopping cart along with a bottle of Benadryl , Migraine Excedrin and a box of Allergy Tablets ? Why don't they make the connection?



Keep in mind that your skin is the largest organ of your body and what you put on your skin gets absorbed into your body. Then ... well... then it has to be filtered by your organs which are already working real hard.



BIG NO-NO's ---- I would SERIOUSLY recommend removing all of the below from your living / working area.



No Bounce or dryer sheets - these are VERY toxic

No Febreeze - your pets will even thank you for this

No Glade Plug-ins - VERY toxic

No drinking of Unfiltered tap water

No Scented candles

No Scented Dish Detergents

No Fragranced Products on Body, Hair or Clothing

No Smoke

No Newspapers and Magazines - The ink is a huge irritant.

No Dander

No Sprays

No Sharpies (marker pens)

New Cartpeting, mattresses, paint, contain toxins that can trigger severe respiratory disorders as well as headaches and Asthma flare-ups.

And remember, it is NOT the smell it is the Chemicals that make up the smell. So, even if something is "Fragrance Free" these products often mask the smell with another chemical ! There are plenty of safe healthy products out there that work well and do not have added chemical fragrances.



More and more workplaces %26amp; schools are implementing Fragrance Free policies and creating "Fragrance Free Zones"鈥?why do you think this is? Make the connection, your lungs , immune system and your general health will thank you.My 10 month old and food allergies!
I don't have an answer for you, but just wanted to sympathize. My son also has severe food allergies and eczema. Be on the look out for asthma too because all of these things seem to go hand in hand. On the happy side, my son is almost 12 and is learning to cope with all of his allergies. Some have gone away, others have gotten worse, but he is a regular little guy. Sounds to me like you are doing all the right things. There are some really good food allergy websites and organizations you may want to look into.My 10 month old and food allergies!
A baby should be on breast milk or formula until 12 months old. Have you ever tried soy formula? It should be non-dairy.

Your son is not lactose intolerant; he is allergic to milk.My 10 month old and food allergies!
I dont know if you will understand but I have to tell you this,

The only animal who drink milk from others animals are us.

Milk is made by nature on cows specially to feed an animal, her baby cow, NOT humans, by tradition we are tought to do this and that, unfortunately most of the traditions are wrong, thats is why USA is one of the sickest nations on the world .

Humans dont have the appropiate enzymes to digest cow milk, imagine giving a new born baby cow milk, his organism is not ready for this kind of food, milkl create mucous causing catharral conditiions on the respiratory systemf, sometimes diarrhea leaving his colon without friendly bacteria, then infections arise on the baby, skin problems, ear infections, fevers and so on.
