Question by healthy_mind30: What is a nutritious alternative to cow’s, soy, rice, almond, goat’s and sheep milk?
My toddler suffer’s severe allergies and I’m going crazy not knowing what to give her. I cannot give her cow and goat milk because she is allergic. Can’t give her almond milk, because she is allergic to nuts. Rice milk lacks a lot of vitamins and nutrients. I’ve been hearing so many bad things about soy, and she has been drinking that now. I am just terrified of all the negative research on soy. I do not know what to do. Please if someone can really help, I would love to hear your answer!

P.S she does not have an intolerance, but actual allergies!

it sounds as if there may already be a fungal overload due to lack of immune sys balance of good bacteria.a good (probiotic or prebiotic)helps restore the digestive flora.only organic grass fed animal milk should be used anyway,raised without anti-biotics or growth hormones as that gets passed on into the milk etc from that animal and totally wipes out all the good digestive bacteria resulting in all sorts of med problems to us all inclu indigestion/allergies.look up rejuvelac and probiotics for health.ever tried coconut milk.

Question by fairycharisma: Can you substitute almond milk for evaporated milk in pumpkin pie?
My 5 month old son has a dairy allergy and I am breastfeeding, so, I am on a dairy free diet. With Thanksgiving coming up, I was wondering how substituting almond milk for the evaporated milk in the Libby’s pumpkin pie recipe would effect the outcome? Or what other options I would have for a dairy free pumpkin pie.

Question by Rachel: If I’m allergic to almonds, can I use shampoo that has sweet almond oil in it?
A little background information: I’m allergic to tree nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds and some other things that aren’t relevant. However, I CAN have peanut butter because of something in the way it’s processed. The last time I got tested for these allergies I think I was 13? I’m now 19…turning 20 in May. I’m not sure if I’ve grown out of these allergies, and I’m not even sure how severe they are. I know I carry around an epipen just in case…but I don’t know if I should use the shampoo I bought that has the almond oil in it. I forgot to read the ingredients before I bought it :/
Any answers would be helpful. Thanks!

I don’t think it would be the best idea to use the shampoo. Try to consult with your doctor about your allergens.

Question by rwfocus007: almond allergy and epi pen?
a few years ago I took an allergy skin scratch test and am allergic to a few things, including almonds. I take Zyrtec, Singulair, and Rhinocort and I avoid every food that says it may contain tree nuts. I’ve never had an anaphylactic reaction. I am soon going to be switching allergy doctors. when I go to the new doctor, should I ask him about an epi pen? Should I have one just in case I need it even though I’ve never had an anaphylactic reaction?
just to add, my dr said since I’m allergic to almonds, I need to avoid every fruit that has a pit and I avoid those as well.

Having an Epi-pen is nice especially for severe reactions; for milder symptoms Benadryl works until you can get to an ER. Benadryl is widely available, easy to carry around, and affordable.
I say better safe than sorry. Who knows what could happen until you can be seen by the new doc.

Question by Catherine V: Can almond oil in a lotion irritate a peanut allergy?
I’m wondering if sweet almond oil in body lotion will irritate the peanut allergy of someone near the lotion. i.e. My boyfriend has a peanut allergy. Would he have a reaction to the body lotion I’m wearing if it contains sweet almond oil? I don’t know how specific the allergy is, in terms of peanuts vs. other nuts … please help!!
Thank you!
