Description
What are we really ingesting when we drink cows’ milk? What are mothers passing through their bodies to their children? What in the world is a dairy allergy? Dr. Vivian Chen dives into the dangers of dairy and her story of transitioning to a plant-based diet after a battle to diagnose the root of her infant’s feeding problem. As a double-certified physician, Dr. Chen has seen a host of improvements in her patients when they cut dairy and address their lifestyle. She’s going to tell you the sneaky ways dairy might be affecting you -- and your children. What we discuss in this episode: - Defining dairy allergy, and distinguishing it from lactose intolerance. - The top four allergies Dr. Chen says mothers should look for. - Ethnic diversity in allergy prevalence and the difficulty in testing for allergies. - Delayed vs. acute symptoms and allergies in adults vs. babies. - Elimination diets to discover the root of your symptoms. - The effects of casein metabolizing into casomorphin. - Follow Dr. Chen at allergyfamilies.com and platefulhealth.com, or on Instagram at @plateful.health.
