Young Adults With Life Threatening Cow's Milk Allergy: Risks of Decrease Bone Mineralization and Methods of Calcium Supplementation

NCT01930266 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Summary

Diet is the only source for calcium and the most important dietary source are dairy products. This presents a difficulty for children with IgE-mediated cow's milk allergy, who are unable to consume milk. We noted that IgE-CMA allergic young adults have a significant decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) compared to international reference values and also to geographically and age matched normal controls.

Working hypothesis: Young adults with IgE-CMA have significantly lower BMD than age and gender matched controls. This can be reversed by introducing dairy products following recovery from allergy, or by enriching the diet via other calcium sources.
