    Abstract:
    Replacing cow's milk with a soybean milk is one of the first measures which are commonly taken with babies suffering from cow's milk protein allergy. Unfortunately soybean can induce sensitization, too, with a variable percentage (ranging from 12 to 80%) according to the different Authors, due to the presence of allergenic proteins, among which the most important one seems to be S2 globulin. An excellent tolerability has been reported in a study carried out with 20 babies suffering from cow's milk protein allergy besides a good palatability of the product with a solution of symptoms in 87.3% of the cases. Only in 16.7% of the treated babies intolerance has been reported and therefore we can conclude that soybean milk has proved to be an excellent substitute of cow's milk in babies suffering from cow's milk protein allergy.
