signs of allergies to yogurt

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

My daughter seems to be able to tolerate yogurt when I cook with it, such as

custard, muffins etc. but if I give her just 1/8 of teaspoon with her fruit,

she has bm 4 to 5 times a day. They are not loose, but very frequent. She

has been on the diet since January and we find that usually she has a bm.

every second day. We have not been very successful with this yet but have

come a long way. She used to be constipated for up to 10 days at a time.

During her seizures she does not have as much mucous anymore, but the amount

of seizures has not changed .

She gets cooked vegetables, mainly chicken, pork, beef, and lots of raw

fruit. She loves muffins with her fruit, custards, mouse. All her food needs

to be pureed since she can not chew and has problems swallowing bigger

pieces. She is 14 years old and weighs. 53 lbs. We had her on vitamins and

minerals as well as probiotics, but than after running out of most of them

and restarting them, she brought up every night in her seizures. So we

stopped the vitamins and minerals and the vomitting stopped to. She has not

been on any vitamins etc for 1 month now.

About 3 weeks ago, I believe she had a die-off, because she had diarrhea for

2 weeks, her bum was very red and sore. We know she also has a yeast

problem. How do we approach that?

I know I have many questions, but hope to have at least one or two answered,

Thank you for all you information this group is very helpful and

informative.

This sounds like a die-off reaction to me.

The probiotic effect of the yogurt is lost when it is cooked.

But if there was a true allergy to some component of the yogurt,

cooking it would not affect the allergy issue.

If someone is allergic to milk, cooking it would not change the

allergiy reaction.

So my guess is that even the small amount of yogurt is causing die-off.
