I was diaganosed a while back with Celiac disease and the doctor told me I was also allergic to lactose and fructose. Here's the question...if I did away with the gluten in my diet but continue to use

lactose and fructose products,will the lactose and fructose do damage to my body?

I can only speak for myself; but I noticed that I am way more sensitive now to my food allergens

than when first tested and diagnosed for allergies - which was 20 years ago. I personally

stay away from it all and I have a lot of things that I am allergic to.

Way back when I first was diagnosed, my doctor suggested that I food challenge my

body to find out which items that I was really sensitive to other than the obvious reacting ones.

Trouble for me was - that symptons were different for different food food groups, ie: migraine headaches from

corn, hives from strawberries/shrimp, asthma from soy, etc. So it comes down to a personal choice - can your body handle a little? Also depends on how much damage there is from celiac disease as to whether your body can digest

the allergic proteins. Lots to consider.

Hope I haven't confused you further! :unsure:

I've read many places that lactose intolerance is often a result of celiac disease, but after eliminating gluten for a time the lactose intolerance may diminish. I also had that problem, but in my gluten testing I also got tested for casein sensitivity and found out I had that too, which means I should avoid dairy as much as gluten. If you eat dairy when you are casein sensitive, you can also damage your intestines. So it might be a good idea to get specifically tested for casein sensitivity. As for fructose, it's a HORRIBLE product that no one should eat, period.

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.

      I am not sure where you are going, but we have articles in this section which may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/

      There are supplements available that can help breakdown minor amounts of gluten such as you might experience with cross contamination when dining out and you order gluten free items from a menu. But they will not help when larger amounts of gluten are consumed. One such product that many on this forum attest to as having helped them in this regard is GliadinX. The inventor of GlidinX is one our forum sponsors so you should know that.

      There is such a thing, believe it or not, called gluten withdrawal. Gluten has addictive properties similar to opiates. I know it sounds bizarre but research it. Also, are you compensating for the loss of vitamins and minerals you were getting from the FDA mandated fortified wheat flour products you were formerly consuming?
