Okay I want to do a trial of dariy free for a little bit and see what happens (I still have some GI issues, but I dunno how long its been since my last glutening) I got one doughnut from Kinkininck left that I plan to eat first thought! :D but AFTER that. I need to find a reaplcement milk to use in my frutiy pebbles. What milks (amlond, soy, what ever...) are advailibe in normal stores that are gluten-free and reasonable priced and would work well in cereals? Thanks!

When I was having difficulty with lactose at the beginning, I used Natrel Lactose-Free milk. It tasted EXACTLY like the real thing, not the sugary taste the other ones had. Pricey, though.......

I know a few people will pipe in on their opinions of soy...but i love silk soymilk- all varieties say gluten free on the package and i really like the taste- especially with granola.

I did DF for a while and my dd is still CF and has been for almost a year. I think it's great that you're trying it. I bet you'll see a difference. With dd we used Silk soy milk but she developed an allergy. We then switched to Blue Diamond Almond milk which we all loved. Unfortunately we found out she was allergic to almonds. This was ashame her Dr. said it was really healthy for her. Now we're doing Naturally Preferred Rice Milk & Lundberg Rice Milk. Whether your're using rice, almond, or soy the liquids are thinner than some cow's milk. If you're use to using skim milk the consistancy will be thinner like that. We used organic coconut milk in smoothies and things like that. We also use Vance's DariFree, Original as one of the best substitues for us. Vance's doesn't impart as much flavor and the other alternatives. I use Vance's for cream soups, pastas, cereal etc. We really like it! :)

Soy I can't do. Rice is good. I don't miss milk at all in cereal (just in cheese :) ). gluten-free/CF rice milks are Pacific, Lundberg, Full Circle, to name a few.

I just tried Vance's 2 days ago--I absolutely love it! I haven't had my tea the way I like it (creamy) in such a long time. I have also made hot chocolate with it--mmm. I'm looking forward to using it in lots of other things. I cannot use soy or almonds. I had been using Pacific Rice Milk--but began to have a reaction to that. Plus, the rice milk did not have the creamy texture that I prefer. I only wish that I could get the Vance's in a store--I tried Whole Foods, Wild Oats and my small, local health food store with no luck. I will be suggesting to all of them, so maybe sometime soon.....

I've been using soy milk for years, simply because I prefer the flavor. Unfortunately, my favorites ended up having some form of barley in them. Right now I'm using Soy Dream Enriched -- Original Flavor. It's fairly neutral in flavor when eaten with cereal. I find Silk to be a little too "beany," but I know alot of people love it.

This is on delphi list:

Land o' Lakes Butter (vp=3/1/05) (800-328-9680)

Their butter is gluten free. They will not verify that the light butter is gluten free because the ingredients come from a

number of outside sources.

Land O Lakes (800-328-4155) (ve=11/24/03) (www.landolakes.com)

All natural products such as natural cheese, butter and milk do not contain gluten per company. “Land O'Lakes, Inc. strives

to provide complete and accurate ingredient information. For any specific product, we feel the best source of this

information is the product ingredient listing.”

Just cause a product says "Lactose free" does not mean its dariy free right? So that would not work right? I am think about casin too.

It does get confusing. There's lactose free, then there's lactose/casien free. (those are the LF/CF short forms we see in the posts throughout the forum.....)

Lots of Kinniknick products are Gluten-free Casein-free. It it says ALTA on the package there is no dairy in it! So that should be excititing for you! Lactose free is not enough if you want to cut out all dairy.

Most ppl here seem to be suggesting soy milk, so then, anyone know if 8th continent is gluten-free? Thier site is about useless. :)

Not sure. We use Silk and I love it!

I'll try to keep all my opinions about soy to myself, but if you try any soy milks, don't give them to your cute little guy. The phytoestrogens in soy are not good for developing little boys. (There's a book called "The Crazy Makers" or somthing like that about this and there's a lot of soy information at www.westonaprice.org).

Sorry I cannot verify if it is or not, as I am wondering the same thing. We drink that as well.

Most lactose-free milks are not dairy free.

I drink Almond Breeze milk. It's delicious!

However, almond milks are not very high in protein (they are actually very low), so if you are looking for one equivalent to cow's milk, I'd go with soy. I drink Natura Unsweetened Soy.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

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

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
