milk proteins

Whey and casein

Milk proteins are the protein compounds found in milk, primarily casein and whey.

Casein forms curds and is used in cheesemaking; whey remains in the liquid and is popular in fitness supplements.

The label listed milk proteins as an allergen.

People with dairy allergies react to these proteins rather than to lactose.
