Food Allergies Treatment

Question by MXS: Itching after drinking milk or having milk products, why?
I get itchy after I drink milk or eat anything with even a little bit of milk in it (chocolate, cheese, whey protein bars, etc.) I don’t get a rash or break out anywhere though, and I itch mostly on parts of my body with hair…including ears legs and head…even inside my nose and on my face. I also itch on the soles of my feet or palms of my hands. It’s bizarre. It’s not like a bug bite itch, though…it goes away once I scratch the area..then might come back again later or I’ll feel it elsewhere.
The itching eventually stops about 16 hours after I eat a food that bothers me.

It’s very very hard to avoid eating foods with milk or milk protein. (Imagine no cheese, no milk, no ice cream….) It’s awful. I have read up on milk allergies, but I have none of those symptoms. I used to be lactose intolerant, but this is not the same problem as that. So, I don’t know what the problem is.

Question by Haley: What health benefits have you experienced drinking raw milk?
Unfortunately it is an “illegal substance” where I live and there are no loopholes in getting it. Just want to know what it tastes like and if it could help my asthma, acne, and allergies.

Question by liz n: My 1-year-old got hives today after drinking cow’s milk yesterday. Is this a typical allergy response?
I have given him cow’s milk occasionally before but only 2-3 oz per day (with no hives in response). Last night he had a total of 6-7 oz of organic whole milk. He woke up more than usual last night crying (apparently in pain), and this morning he has hives. Does is sound like lactose intolerance? What is the best substitute? Soy milk or lactose-free milk? Any other advice about this?

Hives is NOT lactose intolerance. That is a definite allergic reaction. However, there is the possibility that it may be something other than milk. Has he has anything different lately?

Question by Jamy B: Why do I have a headache after drinking just one beer?
I can drink mixed drinks or shots…tequila, gin, vodka, etc…I don’t have any problems. But if I have any beer, I feel sick and get a horrible headache. Last weekend, I had only 1 beer while watching a football game and had a headache & nausea the next day as though I’d been black-out drunk. People have mentioned possible wheat allergies, but I only eat whole grain wheat bread and don’t have any problems…. anyone have any idea what my problem is? anyone share a similar issue?

If the beer wasn’t cold it may have affected you.
