Live With Allergies to Milk - Avoid milk and all milk products. This includes yogurt, cheese, cream, butter, ice cream and sour cream.
Taking milk digestive aids will not help you tolerate milk if you have a true allergy.
Avoid processed foods as much as possible. Milk is a hidden ingredient in many items. Stick with simple, pure, fresh foods - which are more healthful anyway.
Read all labels very carefully. Look for the words milk solids, casein, sodium caseinate, lactose or sodium lactylate, as well as any word that begins with "lact." Stay away from products containing these ingredients.
Watch out for labels that say "dairy-free." That doesn't necessarily mean that they're milk-free. Many contain casein. Prime culprits are coffee whiteners and nondairy creamers.
Having an allergy to milk is very different from being lactose intolerant, and the two are often confused. A milk allergy is caused by an immune system response to the milk protein, or casein. Lactose intolerance occurs when your body lacks the enzyme needed to digest milk sugar, or lactose.
