Protein digestion and the biome?

    I discovered years ago that I had problems digesting casein, but back then no-one knew anything more that, that casein is simply hard for some people and especially babies, to digest properly.

    I forgot all about it until recent dietary changes, highlighted a correlation between millk consumption and indigestion, only now, much more is known about problems that can be caused by incompletely digested proteins passing into our bodies, and it is with some horror that I find there is a link between poor casein digestibility and ADHD, which I have.

    I know that the biome affects how well tolerated some otherwise indigestible sugars are, and is often mentioned in connection with ‘leaky guts’ so, my question is, ‘Does/can the gut biome have any significant effect on protein breakdown?’
