Hi ladies

I've had my 2 yr old son on a dairy/gluten and soy free diet for about a week now and I am AMAZED at the results...he is like a new little man!

His temperament has changed completely and NO more wild mood swings/horrific tantrums

I also have a 9 mnths old dd, so I am a little crunched for time and would love some ideas for any easy to prepare gluten, soy, dairy free meals/food

Also, if there any prepared foods that I could order on line (frozen foods, cookies (he'll eat anything that remotely resembles a cookie, cereal bars, crackers etc) when i'm in a bind and have little time

I also live by a WF and picked up d/s/Gluten-Free Ian chicken nuggets..I was SOOOO happy to find them because he loves tyson nuggets

BUT I have to admit they were AWFUL and rock hard...couldn't blame him for not wanting to eat them!

Thanks for any advice...cook book recs etc

Kimber,

My dd is on a dairy/gluten and soy free diet as well. Check out Enjoy Life products at Open Original Shared Link Enjoy Life products are free of the eight top allergens.

In the beginning I found "The Allergy Self Help Cookbook" by Marjorie Hurt Jones, R.N. to be helpful. The recipes in her book are wheat free but a few of the recipes contain oats and other avoid grains.

I've been able to convert lots of recipes for my family. Feel free to PM me for any specific questions about recipes or food replacement ideas. :)

I got a cookbook for x-mas called Cooking Free - for people with multiple food allergies. Recipies are without soy (mostly), no gluten, dairy free, egg free and low or no sugar. Looks tasty!

I cook almost everything gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free (and egg-free). Our menu this month has Black bean soup, Curried Chicken (coconut milk instead of yogurt), Roast chicken, tacos, "Porcupine" meatballs, baked potatoes with toppings, Chicken and rice soup (homemade), Chicken Caesar salad, Lentil soup, Tostadas, Spaghetti and meatballs, Hamburgers, Chicken cooked in enchilada sauce, Fish and potatoes, Tamale pie, Chicken and noodles, BBQ chicken, Hotdogs, Chili, Stir-fried chicken, Mexican "lasagne", and Gr. Turkey stew. Side dishes are usually rice (flavored different ways), potatoes (mashed, boiled, etc.), sometimes rice bread with garlic butter, raw vegetables, salads, cooked vegies, apple slices, etc.

If you want any specific recipes from this list, please feel free to PM me. When I first eliminated the dairy, gluten and soy I thought it was going to be hard to find something to cook, but I usually just use Betty Crocker and modify ingredients. Things like tacos are still good without cheese and you can use rice milk or almond milk to replace dairy in almost everything.

Good luck!

Well, my husb Dr called today and wants to do a biopsy and advised him to eat gluten again for the 2 weeks prior to the test. Why didn't he do the biopsy when he was 1st diagnosed? the only test my husb has had is the blood test.

Won't it be thrown off by eating gluten-free for the last month??

Much of Kinnikinnick is soy/dairy/gluten free. They have pizza crusts, donuts, and bagels and great bread. Just check the ingreds, but most is free of all those. Link at bottom of my sig.

Kimber ~ as you can see by my siggy... I cook free of many things <_<

My dd (7 years) also did not like the Ians Chicken Nuggets when we tried them several months ago. She does, however, really like Ian's Fish Sticks. I found a really great chicken nugget recipe and will go pull it out and type it for you. My kids say they are better than McDs! LOL, what a compliment! Anyway, I make a ton of them and freeze them in individual portions, then when I need them they are ready to go.

She also really likes the Enjoy Life "No Oats" cookies and the Newman's Own WF DF Newman Os when I don't have any time to make cookies.

I learned this recipe as a kid and it has come in handy lately.

PB cookies

1 c. Peanut Butter

1 egg

1 c. sugar ( I substitute 1/4 c. sugar and 3/4 c. splenda since my husband is diabetic and it works great)

mix, roll into balls and press out on cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 mins at 375. I make 4 batches at once and am set for about 10 days. They're delicious and EASY and portable.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Judy M! Yes, he definitely needs to continue eating gluten until the day of the endoscopy. Not sure why the GI doc advised otherwise but it was a bum steer.  Celiac disease has a genetic component but also an "epigenetic" component. Let me explain. There are two main genes that have been identified as providing the "potential" to develop "active" celiac disease. We know them as HLA-DQ 2.5 (aka, HLA-DQ 2) and HLA-DQ8. Without one or both of these genes it is highly unlikely that a person will develop celiac disease at some point in their life. About 40% of the general population carry one or both of these two genes but only about 1% of the population develops active celiac disease. Thus, possessing the genetic potential for celiac disease is far less than deterministic. Most who have the potential never develop the disease. In order for the potential to develop celiac disease to turn into active celiac disease, some triggering stress event or events must "turn on" the latent genes. This triggering stress event can be a viral infection, some other medical event, or even prolonged psychological/emotional trauma. This part of the equation is difficult to quantify but this is the epigenetic dimension of the disease. Epigenetics has to do with the influence that environmental factors and things not coded into the DNA itself have to do in "turning on" susceptible genes. And this is why celiac disease can develop at any stage of life. Celiac disease is an autoimmune condition (not a food allergy) that causes inflammation in the lining of the small bowel. The ingestion of gluten causes the body to attack the cells of this lining which, over time, damages and destroys them, impairing the body's ability to absorb nutrients since this is the part of the intestinal track responsible for nutrient absorption and also causing numerous other food sensitivities such as dairy/lactose intolerance. There is another gluten-related disorder known as NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just, "gluten sensitivity") that is not autoimmune in nature and which does not damage the small bowel lining. However, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease such as gas, bloating, and diarrhea. It is also much more common than celiac disease. There is no test for NCGS so, because they share common symptoms, celiac disease must first be ruled out through formal testing for celiac disease. This is where your husband is right now. It should also be said that some experts believe NCGS can transition into celiac disease. I hope this helps.

      New (possible) celiac diagnosis

      By Judy M · Posted

      My husband has had lactose intolerance for his entire life (he's 68 yo).  So, he's used to gastro issues. But for the past year he's been experiencing bouts of diarrhea that last for hours.  He finally went to his gastroenterologist ... several blood tests ruled out other maladies, but his celiac results are suspect.  He is scheduled for an endoscopy and colonoscopy in 2 weeks.  He was told to eat "gluten free" until the tests!!!  I, and he know nothing about this "diet" much less how to navigate his in daily life!! The more I read, the more my head is spinning.  So I guess I have 2 questions.  First, I read on this website that prior to testing, eat gluten so as not to compromise the testing!  Is that true? His primary care doctor told him to eat gluten free prior to testing!  I'm so confused.  Second, I read that celiac disease is genetic or caused by other ways such as surgery.  No family history but Gall bladder removal 7 years ago, maybe?  But how in God's name does something like this crop up and now is so awful he can't go a day without worrying.  He still works in Manhattan and considers himself lucky if he gets there without incident!  Advice from those who know would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!

      You've done an excellent job of meticulously tracking the rash's unpredictable behavior, from its symmetrical spread and stubborn scabbing to the potential triggers you've identified, like the asthma medication and dietary changes. It's particularly telling that the rash seems to flare with wheat consumption, even though your initial blood test was negative—as you've noted, being off wheat before a test can sometimes lead to a false negative, and your description of the other symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, stomach issues—is very compelling. The symmetry of the rash is a crucial detail that often points toward an internal cause, such as an autoimmune response or a systemic reaction, rather than just an external irritant like a plant or mites. I hope your doctor tomorrow takes the time to listen carefully to all of this evidence you've gathered and works with you to find some real answers and effective relief. Don't be discouraged if the rash fluctuates; your detailed history is the most valuable tool you have for getting an accurate diagnosis.

      Gluten free beer ?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In this case the beer is excellent, but for those who are super sensitive it is likely better to go the full gluten-free beer route. Lakefront Brewery (another sponsor!) has good gluten-free beer made without any gluten ingredients.

      Welcome to the forum, @catsrlife! Celiac disease can be diagnosed without committing to a full-blown "gluten challenge" if you get a skin biopsy done during an active outbreak of dermatitis herpetiformis, assuming that is what is causing the rash. There is no other known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis so it is definitive for celiac disease. You would need to find a dermatologist who is familiar with doing the biopsy correctly, however. The samples need to be taken next to the pustules, not on them . . . a mistake many dermatologists make when biopsying for dermatitis herpetiformis.
