Question by Carl: Why ,when avoiding dairy produce for eczema relief ,is goats milk recommended when it is classed as dairy too?
I have been suffering from eczema most of my life and have read up on many possible causes , i have been aware that dairy produce might be a possible cause for flare ups and have heard that it is advisable to switch to goats milk instead .This baffles me as those who advocate a dairy free approach and suggest the switch must surely realise that goats milk is also a dairy product .. ??

  2. there must be something that is in cows milk that isn’t present in goat milk. They use the term “dairy products” loosely.

  4. You are right, it is, but for some reason I think most people just think dairy is the product of cows. Maybe goats milk has less lactulose or something, it may be that that aggravates eczema. Thanks though, I am an eczema sufferer and I didn’t know that!

  5. Goats milk does have the same protein and lactose that cows milk has, it just has different levels. Some people that have a sensitivity, the levels are different enough not to affect them. If your trying to avoid dairy you should avoid goats milk also. Give lactose free milk a try.
