 Hi Lila,

Yes casein is in all milk products no matter what. Your sons problem may
just be something else that is in those other products. Check for
ingredients that are similar and then take it from there. Not all
doctors know everything. Get some allergy testing done, either skin
prick test or RAST testing.
