Will An Allergic Mother Still Produce Breast Milk?

Posted by: Alan in Milk Allergies, tags: Allergic, Breast, Milk, Mother, Produce, Still, Will

I’ve been wondering. If a mother has a powerful allergy to whey and casein (the two types of proteins found in breast milk), will her body still produce it?

I am assuming that the mother is allergic to cows milk whey and casein since she probably does not drink breast milk herself. The 2 are very different, that is why breast milk is best for babies. Cows milk is for calves. I do not see why her body would not produce it. The ability to produce milk has nothing to do with allergies and everything to do with hormones.
