Casein

If you're intolerant to casein, what do you look for on lables to know if casein is in the food? I've never seen casein, so is it hidden or under another name?

Well, if it says something like 'milk ingredients' or 'modified milk ingredients', or skim milk powder, or really anything that says 'milk' or 'dairy'. I am not sure it actually ever says 'casein'. And you avoid anything you KNOW is made from milk, like any kind of cheese, yogourt, milk, butter (except for ghee, it is safe I believe), cream etc. And that should cover it (well, it won't be easy, but that's another thing).

Double check ingredients on popcorn, chips, candy, margerine, gluten-free products, hot dogs, salad dressings, wine ect.

Also stay away from whey.

Casein can appear in products as sodium caseinate. Examples include some coffee creamers such as Coffee Mate. I believe under the new US labelling law the work "milk" must now also appear on products in the US.

ok thanks. I really hope I'm not allergic to casein. I'd be more limited and eating would be twice as hard. =(

We need tarnalberry, I think it was her, she posted an awsome link some time back that listed everything casein was in, the obvious and not so obvious- and I forgot to bookmark it :(

This is a site I found that has lots of the hidden names.

Yes, going cf is very hard! I'm one month in and still miss it a lot. But I'm feeling better so I am motivated to keep on. I was tested with enterolab and found to be gluten/casein intolerant.

I was happy to find clarified butter (ghee) at the healthfood store is cf. I couldn't live without butter!

What is enterolab????

that's a good list - and with the allergen labeling laws, you'll start seeing it listed more plainly.

going CF, I think, is more difficult than gluten-free - primarily because I like yogurt and cheese more, and there are not decent substitutions. (soy yogurt's not the same, and I don't like having too much soy.) but you can do it so long as you choose to.

Enterolab (www.enterolab.com) is a site that you can send a stool sample and mouth swab to and they can tell you if you are having an autoimmune response to certain foods, or if you carry the main celiac genes. It can help you find out if you are celiac or gluten, casein intolerant and other foods.

Many people on this site have used it and this site is where I found out about it.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
