About The Test

Test Overview

A milk allergy is a hypersensitive immune response to proteins found in milk, leading to various allergic symptoms when it is consumed. People with this allergy must avoid milk and related products to prevent these adverse reactions. Milk allergies are often confused with lactose intolerance because the symptoms are similar, however, these are two unrelated conditions.
