What is casein?? And is it bad for me??!
I have just bought some soy cheese, and I guess as most of you know it has casein in it, which says in the ingredients is a dairy protein!. I am just wanting to know if it is worse than buying vegetarian cheese, as I am wanting to stay away from dairy products, as I seem to be allergic to it!.
Can someone please give me some knowledgeble answers!.
Thankyou!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

yeah, it's a stomach enzyme, and I've heard that it is highly carcinogenic!. It was in this book, I can't remember what it's called!. Something about the most comprehensive study in China (I think !?)

You always have to read the ingredients on soy cheeses and stuff!. I have been fooled many a time, believe me!.
Casein is an animal protein, and therefore not vegan!. However, since you seem to be avoiding dairy products simply because you are allergic, so I am not sure how much of a problem it will pose for you!. I think it isn't actually dairy, so you should be fine, however if you are going vegan for moral/ethical or environmental issues, I would avoid it!. also, if you are a vegetarian for those reasons I would avoid it!. However if it is merely that you are allergic to dairy and are therefore trying to avoid it, I think that soy cheeses that contain casein would be fine for you!.
Hope this helps!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Obviously, nothing is bad in moderations!. However, casein is the form of protein found in milk!. This substance mixes with 70% water to form a glue that holds furniture together and labels onto glass bottles!. Imagine this going through your system!. The mucous buildup will not have many external symptoms but can lead to Gastro-intestinal bleeding, Crohns disease, and many respiratory problems!.
I would recommend the soy cheese because it is made from soymilk and tofu!. Most Vegetarian brands still use cows milk although some brands, like Vegan Gourmet, do not use any cows milk!.
But, I still can't help but love cheese!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Casein is made from the lining of a calf's stomach!. Without it, it is very hard to get cheese to melt!. They are finally coming out with some vegan cheese that will melt, but some taste a lot better than others!. I've always found the slices melt the best!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I am sensitive to casein, too!. I have found that I can consume goat cheese, which has almost no casein!. This may or may not work for you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Its a curdled milk, I believe!. Buy vegan gourmet cheese!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
