raw milk question - 5 year old nephew

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I have a 5 year old nephew who was drinking pasturized organic

whole milk with no problems.

His mother read the Sally's book and decided to start him

out on raw organic milk. About a week into drinking raw milk

he started getting a rash on his hands, wrists. She didn't stop

the milk. But the rash got worse. Looked like a combination

of eczema and raw red burnt skin? He also seems very gassy.

She has stopped the milk to see if his rash makes a difference and

his skin improved. This is a shame since the raw milk is healthier.

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be happening when he drinks

raw organic milk?

He a really good eater. Hates candy or anything sweet. Loves

vegs and fuits.

TIA

Could be related to the diet of the animal. We had problems with allergy

symptoms after getting raw milk from a dairy that occasionally used a supplement

for their cows which contained soy. She might want to ask questions on exactly

what the animals have been fed.

Hi Opal,

Please confirm that the child is getting *grassfed* milk from pastured cows.

Just checking,
