Allergic to Dairy Products?

Remember, I am not a doctor, so check with your own physician about any information that concerns you.

Lactose and casein could be the problem. Lactose is a primary sugar and casein is a primary protein in cow's milk. They are added to a huge variety of foods like bakery glazes, coffee whiteners, fortified cereals, high protein beverage powders, ice cream, infant formulas, nutrition bars, processed meat, salad dressing, and whipped topping. So read the labels!

A substitute for egg whites is flax seed. It can be used by those people who have allergies and vegans. You can find many recipes online using flax seed and there are also many cook books in local book stores with that also.
  • 1 tablespoon of milled flax seed
  • 3 tablespoons of water
  1. 1 tablespoon of milled flax seed with 3 tablespoons of water for each egg white you need.
  2. Mix it well
  3. Let the mixture sit for 1 to 2 minutes.
You can follow a Vegan diet when you are allergic to eggs, milk and other dairy products.
