SV: Breastmilk and casein-free

[Guest guest]

The interpretation of what you write depends on what kind of casomorphin test

that was used. These tests are part science, part guesswork, and very small

individual " errors " is all it takes to get wrong counts, both ways. There are

other kinds of endogenous opoid peptides that are hard to differentiate from

casomorphin..

Otherwise, " occasional infractions " and possible cross contamination from pots &

pans etc could be enough to explain your problem. Have you tried to use an

enzyme supplement ?
