Some good points, but dairy/milk does contain more than just lectins. I think it is a mistake to reduce dairy/milk to lectins, there are other substances in milk (e.g. proteins like lactose, casein, albumin, immunogloblin) that can cause problems. There should be IMHO a dairy section.

- That's true ... doesn't that make it an exclusive milk allergy though - just like you orginaly said, but that doesn't explain why patients react to many foods other than dairy. Te only possible link the "notorious triggers" have in common ( to my knowledge) IS lectins.
Either way, since we have both addressed that diet is THE main culprit for eczema, Im quite happy to leave the dairy alone (joke) as another posibble theory.Thanks for your input Laoseb97 ( talk) 16:13, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
