Soy does not have gluten in it. A product made with soy may also have gluten added as well as many other ingredients. For example, most soy sauce has wheat in it.

There are quite a few people on here with issues with soy that isn't gluten related.

Here's a link I found interesting. It seems to be first speaking about milk products but then includes soy in the mix. My brain's reaction to soy is the same as gluten, lightheadedness within 10 minutes. Possible this explains why?

Soy is evil :ph34r:

My reaction to soy is mostly neurological( vertigo ,ringing in my ear,balance issues ect.....) but some digestive ( constipation ect..) issues as well.

I have been told I have gluten ataxia but I feel strongly that soy effects my ataxia as strongly if not more so than gluten .

I react to soy as strongly as I do gluten but in different ways

I think, and I could be wrong, but I think our autoimmune system went haywire, then went hyperactive. When we remove gluten, things get better for awhile, but our warrior cells got poised and ready to fight anything resembling the old foe. Soy and dairy protein are not all that unsimilar to the wheat protein, corn protein is close too. Some other grains might be similar as well.

I successfully reintroduced all of the aforementioned proteins (won't do soy or quinoa though, a personal choice) several months after going gluten-free. Good luck to you, know your frustration, and wish there was an easy answer.

Many people react badly to soy. It doesn't contain gluten, but is one of the most common allergen foods.

I used to get digestive upset with soy. My reaction has gotten much worse since going gluten-free. I now get neurological issues from it too. I avoid it at all costs!

It's tricky too..it's in SO many things, especially salad dressings, chocolate, and vitamin supplements. :o

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
