Hi,
Perhaps the phrase "leading to gluten problems" is where the difficulty
is. I was merely pointing out that with the protein chains being so
similar, that many people have difficulties with both gluten and casein.
This doesn't have to be allergies; but, rather, it could be intolerances,
digestion problems, processing problems, other... I didn't mean to be
alarmist but, at least from my perspective, having information is useful.
And since labelling obviously doesn't tell us what is in the product, I
thought I would offer.
