How can a dietitian and nutritionist help with cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA)?
A registered dietitian and nutritionist can provide assistance with cow’s milk protein allergy in the following ways:
- Reinforce caregiver understanding of cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA) and its impact on required dietary avoidance.
- Review diet history and symptom patterns to evaluate the appropriateness of current diet restrictions and identify potential unnecessary food eliminations.
- Assess growth using standardized growth charts, monitoring weight, length/height, and weight-for-length or BMI over time to ensure adequate weight gain or catch-up growth.
- Develop an individualized nutrition care plan based on the child’s age, feeding method, severity of symptoms, and presence of other food allergies.
- Support breastfeeding continuation by guiding the mother through a strict dairy-free (and soy-free, if indicated) elimination diet.
- Educate caregivers on identifying hidden sources of dairy and other allergens through label reading, and support safe food selection for both the breastfeeding parent and infant during elimination diets and introduction of solids.
- Assess dietary intake for the infant and breastfeeding parent to identify potential nutrient gaps. Ensure nutritional adequacy despite dietary restrictions by recommending appropriate food substitutions and supplementation (e.g., calcium, vitamin D, protein, fat).
- Recommend appropriate infant formula when needed, based on age, allergy severity, and tolerance.
- Guide transitions between formula types if symptoms persist, ensuring tolerance and symptom resolution or improvement.
- Provide guidance on the safe introduction of complementary foods, including avoidance of cow’s milk protein and consideration of other allergens as appropriate.
- Collaborate with the healthcare team for reintroduction or oral food challenges.
- Receive support of a dietitian for the implementation of cow’s milk protein reintroduction (e.g., milk ladder) by providing stepwise guidance after medical clearance.
- Provide ongoing follow-up to monitor growth, dietary adequacy, and allergy resolution.
- Offer practical resources, recipes, and meal planning strategies to support long-term adherence to a dairy-free diet.
- Support caregiver confidence and reduce anxiety related to food choices and allergy management.
- And more.
