Whey Protein Isolate for the casein sensitive?

[Guest guest]

Okay .. you have all been so very helpful in regards to what and how you use

your WPI. 

 

I purchased and received my NOW Foods Whey Protein Isolate this week.  First I

discovered that I purchased the wrong " kind " .  It is vanilla and I really

wanted/needed the natural/unflavored whey. 

 

Since I ordered the whey protein isolate, I remembered (found my blood test

paperwork from two years ago) that I am casein sensitive.  My casein/cow milk

IGG test reflected 25.6 (reference range = less than 2.0)  So, I am assuming

that " 25.6 " is considered on the " high " side .. ?  (Not sure why I didn't

" realize/think " of this before I ordered the whey?) 

 

I have been asking Duncan many questions in regards to whey and he has been very

patient and very helpful.  He commented that maybe the NOW Whey protein isolate

would not affect my casein sensitivity.  Also mentioned that maybe I would want

to try a Whey product called Immunocal.  I checked it out and I can't afford the

Immunocal at $125. 

 

I have been doing quite a few searches for " dairy free " or " casein free " Whey

protein isolates without much success.  There are some of those products out

there, but don't feel comfortable with just ordering a product (out of the blue)

without a personal recommendation. 

 

NOW's WPI typical amino acid profile seems to be so much better than all of the

other products I have been looking at this afternoon. 

 

So .. I guess my questions are:  Does anyone here have a casein sensitivity,

such as mine, and are successful with taking a NOW Whey Protein Isolate (or

something similar)?

 

If you have purchased what is defined as " dairy free " or " casein free " Whey

Protein Isolate, do you believe it is comparable with NOW food's brand .. with

that being so high in their amino acids .. ?

 

Thank you in advance for any personal experiences/recommendations in regards to

the WPI.
