What can I eat if I am allergic to protein?

People who are allergic to protein have a physique that finds it very difficult to lose weight, because they are unable to absorb highly nutritious protein under normal circumstances. Once they absorb the protein, they will have an allergic reaction. Therefore, many children are allergic to protein. These children often cannot eat eggs, seafood, or foods with high protein content, especially dairy products. They should be more careful because milk contains a higher amount of protein. Parents need to pay special attention to this.

What should I not eat if I am allergic to protein?

The first category is poultry eggs. The most common one is eggs. Eggs have high nutritional value, so they have become the best complementary food for mothers to prepare for their babies. However, since eggs contain high protein, the baby's stomach may not be able to adapt to and tolerate it. To avoid protein allergies in babies, mothers should try not to feed eggs, or feed them gradually, little by little, to allow the baby to slowly adapt.

The second category is seafood and fish. This type of food is also very high in protein. Because of its high nutritional value, many mothers will try to let their babies eat it. It is recommended that mothers feed this type of food after their babies are older.

The third category is dairy products. Milk is the best nutritional supplement and has become mothers' favorite nutritional supplement for their babies. But milk is a very common food allergy in babies. Mothers should breastfeed as much as possible to avoid protein allergies, and other dairy products should be avoided as much as possible for the baby.

After learning about these protein allergy foods, mothers are advised to avoid these foods, or feed them little by little. If the baby is found to have no allergic symptoms, they can be used as regular complementary foods.

What to do if protein causes allergies

How to treat baby’s protein allergy? What I need to tell you is that allergy is a stubborn disease and there is no way to cure allergies in a short period of time. Only when the body's antibodies adapt to these allergens will allergies no longer occur. The same is true for baby protein allergy. There are currently two main methods for treating baby protein allergy.

The first is to degrade allergic antibodies. This method takes time. First, you need to see a doctor to confirm what kind of food your baby is allergic to. Once confirmed, you should stop eating the food completely. This can completely block allergens and completely avoid allergenic ingredients. Generally speaking, babies will no longer experience allergic symptoms after they stop eating this food. At the same time, as the baby's antibodies increase, he may no longer be allergic to this food.

The second is oral desensitization therapy. This method is equivalent to fighting poison with poison, but the focus should be on the quantity. To give a simple example, many babies are allergic to eggs. In this case, you can dilute the eggs directly with water. For the first time, you can add a little bit of egg to the water and feed it to the baby, and then observe the baby's condition. If there is no problem, you can slowly increase the dosage. After two to three months, the baby will be able to adapt to the food and eat it normally. Use this method to let the baby gradually adapt and then desensitize.
