Providing a dairy-free diet for children.
Cow's milk protein allergy is a common food allergy in infants and children, and along with lactose intolerance it requires a dairy-free diet at a time when adequate nutrition is critical. Parents need reliable advice and on-going support from healthcare professionals about appropriate dairy-free options and alternatives for infants and older children. Professionals need to base advice to parents on current evidence to improve client confidence and outcomes.
