Gf, Dairy And Soy Free Foods For Picky Toddler?

Recommended Posts

Hi

My 21mnth old ds had b/w and a stool culture and all came back fine but I believe he may at the least be wheat intolerant based on his symptoms after eating wheat

So, I decided to try him gluten-free for a few weeks to see if we notice a difference

Oh, his dad has ever been tested but let's just say he can't eat pasta w/ out living in the bathroom but does fine with everything else and is not uncomfy or does not have any weight issues

So, it's day 4 and things are going well but because my son is also dairy/soy free I feel like he is hardly eating

Anyone have some favs that are dairy, soy, gluten-free?

I picked up some enjoy life rice bread..it was frozen..can anyone tell me how you normally defrost it or how long it is good for on the counter?

Thanks, my toddler is a typical toddler and very picky as far as eating any veggies, but he does well w/ fruits

Is oatmeal a yes/no?

For now he is living on

hamburger/chicken/turkey

some fruit-grapes, watermellon, banana, pears

rice pasta and rice bread

gluten-free cereal-envirokidz, and gluten-free cookies, rice chex

Thanks, Kim

You can make all sorts of things with Chebe, including hot pockes, corn dogs, pizza sticks... Just use rice milk or water and don't add the cheese.

Most of Kinnikinnick's products are soy free and they hace many dairy, casein free products as well. Good luck.

Have you tried potato?? White rice?? My son is dairy, soy, wheat, eggs, beef etc...it does get tricky, he is only 1. He likes sweet potato as well. You can make fries out of them too. All Natural Alexia brand french fries are gluten free as well, they have Yukon Gold julienne fries with sea salt, and some others that have different flavoring in them. It is amazing how much soy is in so many snacks. My son like I said is still young so he isn't into the big kids snacks yet, but I do think that fritos are ok as a junkie type treat, I'm pretty sure soy free. I go to www.peapod.com and I can look at all the items and see what is in them before going to the store so it saves a lot of time standing around in the isle reading labels. What about going to that site www.glutenfreemall.com and you can select the things that he is allergic to and it will tell you the items you can buy or give you ideas anyways.

I also found that Fleishmans' Light Margarine is the only type he can have, it is dairy and soy free.

Rice Krispee treats :D

Good Luck

Thanks again, Kim

I see you already enjoylife breads--but I like their cookies and bars too. Also, there is Namaste--they make a slew of baking products--good brownies/blondies. All their products are free from wheat, gluten, corn, soy, potato, dairy or nuts.

Ck them out here: Open Original Shared Link I can buy there mixes in some stores too...

PS-Have you tried alexia fries? They are soo good. I buy them in my healthfood store and Meijer/Marsh grocery. See here: Open Original Shared Link

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      For my Vit D3 deficiency it was recommended to take with Vit K2 (MK7) with the Vit D. The Vit K2 helps absorption of Vit D3. Fat also helps with absorption. I take Micro Ingredients Vit D3 5000 IU with Vit K2 100 micrograms (as menaquinone:MK-7). Comes in soft gels with coconut oil.  Gluten free but not certified gluten free. Soy free, GMO free.

      @Known1, I submitted the following comment along with my contact information: "I have noticed that many food companies voluntarily include information in their ingredient/allergen label section when the product is made in an environment where cross contamination with any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA may also be likely. Even though celiac disease and gluten sensitivity are, technically speaking, not allergic responses, it would seem, nonetheless, appropriate to include "gluten" in that list for the present purpose. That would insure that food companies would be consistent with including this information in labeling. Best estimates are that 1% of the general population, many undiagnosed of course, have celiac disease and more than that are gluten sensitive."

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1
