Milk is a particularly common food that contains rich nutrients such as protein, calcium, and other beneficial substances. Babies need to eat formula, for example, after losing breast milk, they still need to eat formula for a long time, and formula is a type of dairy product. So, what formula should children eat if they are allergic to milk?
If children are allergic to milk, they should eat formula milk powder with deeply hydrolyzed protein. This type of milk powder uses a special process to convert the high molecular weight milk protein that can cause allergies in milk into small fragments, which is beneficial for babies' absorption and utilization, and will not cause abnormal immune reactions. Therefore, it is very suitable for babies who are allergic to milk to consume.
After parents discover that their children are allergic to milk, they can also give their babies free amino acid formula milk powder. This type of milk powder does not contain peptides, it is composed entirely of free amino acids in a certain ratio, and does not contain allergens. For babies with severe milk allergies, the first choice is amino acid formula milk powder.
Generally speaking, amino acid formula milk powder needs to be consumed for 3-6 months, and then gradually try to give the baby partially hydrolyzed formula milk powder. If there are no adverse reactions, after 6 months, it is possible to try giving the baby regular formula milk powder. Everyone should be aware that goat milk, soy milk powder, etc. may contain cross allergens, so do not give them to children for consumption.
