Dani wrote that a colleague "has a 5 mo. old with severe eczema. He had
eczema starting at about 2 1/2 - 3 mo. of life. Was breastfed exclusively
before eczema started. Mom supplements on Lactofree while she is at work -
says not enough time to pump."
Please be sure that mom knows that Lactofree is a cow milk based ABM. The
lactose has been digested, but the proteins remain in their normal state.
A baby who exhibits true cow milk allergy [versus a lactose intolerance]
will be allergic to the proteins in Lactofree.
