Dairy Intolerant...any Success In Adding In Goat's Milk?

I really dislike being dairy free. I avoid dairy because it seems to bother my sinuses. No GI symptoms though.

 

I was wondering if anybody had success in adding in goat milk products if they couldn't tolerate cow's milk. I have a local farm that sells goat milk, goat kefir, and goat yogurt.

My lactose intolerance has resolved, but my casein allergy? Who knows? It always has diminished during winter. I used to think I was cured during Winter (even told my allergist who would chuckle) and it would come back with a vengeance come Spring. I react strongly to tree pollen. Another family curse!

Of course, I have been testing periodically. This winter I have been consuming butter, cream, cheese and yogurt. No tummy issues, so I take that as a sign of intestinal healing from celiac disease. Nose? Very little congestion unless mold counts are high. Then I have been taking an anti-histamine. Took one today after consuming eggs and yogurt. Nose is already stuffy from Santa Ana winds which kick up mold spores. The real test will be in Spring.

I am so happy to be able to consume dairy. I am diabetic and eat a low carb high fat diet which helps keep my blood sugar stable.

I could never stand goat anything as a kid or adult, so I can not tell you how it impacts a milk allergy. You can try an anti-histamine to see if it helps.

I don't know about goats milk products but I would try about anything to see if it works as a sub. I am just starting to deal with the dairy issue. After months of gluten free and feeling much better but I notice I have nasty reactions to all dairy. I was still having bad days and was trying to pin it down to gluten. Since I don't use much dairy It took me a while to figure out when I did I would have the pain, bloating and awful gas. I hope you'll let us know if you try the goats milk.

I use Goats milk all the time with no problems...I started using it right after diagnosis, after having problems with dairy.  Try a small amount at first and see how you react to it. It is really expensive, but what isn't.  Good luck.   I also use Goats milk yogurt.

Goats milk is ok, Buffalo milk too. Much easier to digest that the modern dairy cows milk.

      EMA Result

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal...

      EMA Result

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated...

      EMA Result

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive. I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy? Thanks for...

Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.

Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
