“…Whey protein (WP) not only boosts immunity due to the presence of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG), α-lactalbumin (αLA), bovine serum albumin, lactoferrin (LF), immunoglobulin (Ig), enzymes, and glycomacropeptide, and is also a source of essential amino acids (Marshall, 2004). Though it is obvious that WP is an excellent nutritive food, some of its components have been linked to allergic conditions in infants and young children (Jaiswal and Worku, 2022;Wright et al, 2022). Among the above mentioned proteins, the major antigens include casein, β-LG, and αLA, and it has been reported that most patients allergic to milk allergy have specific IgE antibodies against at least two antigens (Cohen et al, 2022;Savilahti and Kuitunen, 1992;Sicherer and Sampson, 1999).…”
