I've also been told that it's more common to be allergic to casein than to whey. Somebody has to be the "other percent" right :-) ? In addition to which protiens an individual seems to be sensitive to, another factor is the "dosage" effect. Something may have a very small amount that might trigger a noticeable reaction. For instance, we can sometimes get away with caramel coloring that is of a dairy source depending on the concentration in the product. For children, it's generally recommended to eliminate all forms of an allergen from their diet in order to give them the greatest chance of outgrowing it. I've also heard that the same may hold true for adults. Kathy ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
