What it is

Sodium caseinate is a protein derived from milk. It is made by reacting casein, the main protein found in milk, with a sodium compound. This process makes the protein soluble in water.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use sodium caseinate as an emulsifier and stabilizer in processed foods. It helps blend ingredients that normally don't mix, like oil and water, and improves texture. It is often found in baked goods, dairy products, and processed meats.

Health notes

Sodium caseinate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of protein. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated sodium caseinate. Evidence does not link typical consumption to adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Sodium caseinate is derived from milk, which is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
