Dairy Products and Allergies
Food allergies – also referred to as hypersensitivities – can be defined as exaggerated reactions by the immune system to food components it considers as intruders. The food allergen is generally a protein or an amino-acid sequence. Food allergies can be explained as breakdowns in the body’s normal immune response (which usually tolerates food proteins). Allergic people have a genetic predisposition, which impairs their body to tolerate these food proteins.
