I am not sure about casein, but NOW Foods offers high quality gluten and lactose free whey protein isolate
which makes terrific smoothies and ice cream. I am sensitive to casein as well as lactose, and this protein powder does not bother me at all. It is sweetened (vanilla flavor) with Stevia so it does not have any artificial sugar or real sugar which can cause blood sugar fluctuations.It is very versatile in that you can add any kind of fruit, juice or "milk," nuts or seeds, or nothing at all except ice and water and it always tastes fantastic. Here I used some fresh peach as a side.
