Food Allergies Treatment

Question by cj84: Has anyone heard of this related to an allergy?
My 9 month old daughter has recently tried toast (whole wheat) but for the past few weeks here voice has has seemed crackly. Personally I think it’s because she does these very high pitched squeals and screams when she gets excited, my MIL is convinced it’s an allergy, even though my daughter is extremely happy and acting normal and has no signs of an allergy (watery eyes, runny nose, rash, irritability, being sick) I do have a check up May 25 (earliest I can get in) I really don’t think I have anything to worry about, but she (is staying with us for a week) is so convinced something is wrong with her and telling me to stop any foods, except for beginner purees, it’s kind of driving me crazy that she thinks I don’t know my daughter well enough to know when something is wrong. Has anyone heard of a baby having a slightly crackling voice as an allergy reaction? I haven’t read it anywhere
The thing is she had this crackling since about a week before the bread, I have only given to her 3 times total and have stopped for time being, and her voice is still kind of crackling..I didn’t mean to sound super annoyed in this, I just hate when someone is constantly telling me how to raise my child and always pointing out everything they think I am doing wrong..Thank you for the responses

Question by Gary L: Is goat milk good for you?? I’ve heard it helps allergies.?

Best answer:

Answer by Caesar’s wife
It’s an acquired taste, certainly. If you’re used to cow’s milk, it is sharper.
And yes, it is good for you, I’m sure as good as cow’s milk is.

Question by Cesaria Barbarossa – 40K: For Parents with Children with PEANUT allergies: Have you heard about this new treatment?
Apparently, they give the kids itsy bitsy amounts of peanut over a period of time and eventually the kids lose the allergy. I read it somewhere that they’ve begun trials on it and after a year or so, the children lose the allergy.

Anyone heard this or trying this treatment?

Answer by Bridget B
Yes. And my allergist in Houston is friends with the main person on it.
It will take a LOT of time for this to become mainstream. They tried it a few years ago and one of the children either died or had a near fatal reaction to the “treatment”. So, they stopped it for a while. Now, it is extremely controlled.

My son has a life threatening peanut allergy and personally I won’t be a part of it until it is really proven safe this time.

If anyone you know has a peanut allergy, please check out my website. I have a short animation as well as a list of peanut safe candy (there is so little!). www.judethedude.com

Question by Che-K: Has anyone ever heard of a dog with a peanut allergy?
I know all dogs love and eat peanut butter, but I was wondering if there was such a thing as a peanut allergy in dogs. I have never heard of this, anyone else? If so would it be as in humans, anaphylactic shock, or a relatively mild reaction?

Answer by cfelonius
I have never heard of it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it could happen. Likely it would have a similar reaction as in humans. We are 95% alike you know.
