If you react at all to gluten, you may very well have issues with this. If you get constipated, acne, sinus issues with this, suspect the casein.
Egg protein is better, IMHO. Easy to find too. You can use raw egg or buy it powdered.

Thanks for that info, Nancy, it's something I'll keep in mind. I do have chronic sinus issues although they persist even though I've eaten very little dairy for the past few months. I wonder if a whey/casein blend would be better although egg protein is something I hadn't considered. I'll look into it. |
