Question

Does cooking milk make it easier to tolerate for allergy prone individuals

Answer 1

It has been shown that most of the milk allergy sufferers can tolerate baked foods that contain milk without expressing any allergic reaction. This is because the high temperatures used to bake these foods cause the proteins in milk to change shape and break down. These proteins that denature with high temperature are the ones that induce the allergic reaction. Once they break down, the immune system of the human body can no longer recognize them.
