Top 5 Gluten-free And Casein Free Foods?


dlp252

Recommended Posts

dlp252 Apprentice

I was just diagnosed yesterday by Enterolabs with gluten and casein sensitivity. I've been doing pretty well with the gluten-free, but haven't really paid much attention to casein free since I didn't know for sure I was sensitive...yesterday's thread of top 5 foods was very fun so can we try this too, please, lol!?

I don't have 5 products yet...but I went home and looked at some of the things I've been eating and some fit in the casein/gluten free category:

1. Lundberg Rice Chips, pico de gallo flavor

2. Lifestream Buckwheat wildberry waffles

3. Pacific hazelnut milk

4. Silk soymilk (although I may have to give this up too)

My list on the other thread was Gluten-free Casein-free, so I'll try to list other items on this one (haha! 10 items for me, and I'll even list ones I use for dairy substitutions)

1. Namaste pancake mix (because my husband will eat it too)

2. Almond Breeze

3. raw cashews (makes a good ranch alternative)

4. avocados (sub for yogurt/sour cream when mixing up tuna)

5. Silk Eggnog

(I avoided soy substitutes for the most part because I try to keep soy to a minimum.)

...

5. natural peanut butter

Oh yes! homemade hummus and natural peanut butter are vital in my kitchen! ;-) (though I never use the peanut butter in a recipe... it's on tortillas, rice cakes, or apples, and that's it... huh!)

GREAT THREAD!

Here's more than five - but, I like all of these so much!:

Tropical Source Dark Chocolate with Hazelnuts (I usually have some every night with a glass of red wine)

Spectrum Eggless-Vegan Light Canola Mayo

1-2-3 Gluten Free Silky and Rich Brownies Mix (instead of oil, I use "Earth Balanace's Soy Garden Natural Buttery Spread melted) [i GET RAVE REVIEWS!!!!]

The Organic Gourmet's Tartar Sauce and Dip [My fiancee, who considers himself to be an expert on tartar sauce, loves this stuff...I have even added it to crab, to make crab nachos :-) - was great!]

Mr. Spice's Tangy Bang Hot Sauce [Get to spice up anything]

Boomi Bar's Healthy Hazel [Wonderful to have in one's purse...]

Some of Annie's dressings are Gluten-free Casein-free, and you can purchase them on line in individual packets - I ALWAYS carry the Roasted Red Pepper dressing in my purse now - It's FANTASTIC!

many Lundberg risotto mixes are Gluten-free Casein-free, and you can add shrimp or scallops to make a one dish meal, with salad.

also, I use Ghee (clarified butter) instead of butter - it is CF!

Can't wait to see more suggestions!

Thanks for the link! I'm going to check out a health food store near me that supposedly has a great selection of gluten-free products, if I don't see anything there I'll order off the link you provided! Thanks again.

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
