Mammalian Milk Zoomer
To test for sensitivity to commonly consumed alternative animal milks
Dairy-free and paleo diets are growing in popularity as individuals attempt to identify underlying causes of inflammation and autoimmunity. When eliminating dairy, many individuals switch to non-bovine dairy sources, such as goat or sheep milk. Because these alternative animal milks can have similar types of proteins, sensitive individuals may still experience adverse symptoms from consuming other mammalian milks after eliminating cow milk products.
The Mammalian Milk Zoomer has been designed to identify reactivity to non-cow milk dairy products from other mammals at the peptide level, eliminating concerns about cross-reactivity of similar foods.
Because dairy is a more antigenic food in the western food supply, one should assess all potential dairy sources for the most comprehensive picture of potential inflammatory food triggers before making nutritional changes.
- The Vibrant Mammalian Milk Zoomer is a comprehensive platform which provides clinically useful patient specific information regarding mammalian milk allergenic epitopes that could enable targeted designs for future therapeutics and allow for personalized treatment options for patients.
- A combined detection of both IgA and IgG reduces the possibility of missing reactivity.
- Identification of peptides instead of proteins reduces the possibility of cross-reactivity with similar foods.
- In order to provide the most comprehensive and personalized recommendations for dietary interventions and underlying inflammatory food triggers, it is recommended that the Mammalian Milk Zoomer be run alongside a Vibrant Dairy Zoomer, Wheat Zoomer (to assess presence and degree of intestinal permeability), and Food Sensitivity Complete Panel.
