Can someone help me get this clear?

I have been delving into Lawrence. In one place it says that there is no
beta-lactoglobulin in human milk, but significant amounts in cow's milk.
In the list of human milk proteins it names beta lactoglobulin, and in
the section on allergies it says that beta lactoglobulin can be present
in milk due to maternal long term exposure to cow's milk. So does that
mean that with so many people drinking cow's milk that we now accept
beta lactoglobulin as a constituent of milk, but not a naturally
occurring one?

Anyone help me here?

And does anyone know anything about camel's milk? It has just appeared
bottled in the supermarket. I was told today that it has no lactose.that
can't be right can it?  I will contact the manufacturer and see what I
can find out too.

Thanks, Meg
