Goats milk? is it dairy free?

[eddiejo]

Trying to do dairy free but someone told me to try goats milk instead. I just don't know if it is dairy free.. DS can't have soya and doesn't like rice milk!!

god don,t know i would,ve said soya is it for you or a baby /child are they allergic to the dairy products !

no but it has slightly different proteins in it.

hey maybe ask a vegan they might know

hi ya just found this qucklie for you might help

Goat's milk isn't dairy milk. But I wouldn't recommend goats milk if your DS is allergic to dairy as your DS is likely to be allergic to it too.

have you tried Oatly with calcium?

Proteins in goats' milk very very similar to those in cows. Less than 20% of people who are intolerant to cows' milk will be ok with goats'.

How about almond milk (though expensive)?

Nope, but it's easier to digest.

DS3 is fine with goats (awful with cow's and not great with soya).

a vegan wouldn't touch goat's milk either. vegans do not eat animals or animal by-products... milk, eggs, butter, gelatin, etc.

the Oatly is pretty good. also try different types of soya and rice milk. different brands have different tastes.

i meant to ask as well have you tried organic dairy? sometimes it not so much the actual milk as it is the growth hormones and antibiotics that are found in dairy that effect people.

DD does goats milk but doesn't do cows milk or soya milk. They both go straight through her. Must be a protein issue then and not a dairy one

hi i was,nt saying ask a vegan about goats milk !!!!!! i was saying ask a vegan what alternative to milk yhey might use !!

Thanks for web adddress debzmb. Would have tried oatly milk but he may be coeliac too so trying to avoid all gluten at the moment.

Will try different rice milk brands and almond milk.

Thank you all
