maltodextrin and dairy

Hello,

I was recently diagnosed in January with celiac disease. No I am on somewhat frustrating journey to go gluten free.  Through this process I have found that I have a sensitivity to maltodextrin, and I was wondering if anyone else has had this? Also, I am considering eliminating lactose/dairy after doing some research that it can irritating to the gut due to inability to digest it.  I have never gotten GI upset from dairy, so am not sure I should do this.  Just looking for advice about this as well. Thank you for reading my post!

Maltodextrin is gluten free even if derived from wheat. 
Lactose intolerance is common with celiac disease but you only need to eliminate it if it’s causing you digestive upset. You may find this helpful.

Welcome to the forum @Xsmama! 

It is pretty common at the time of diagnosis for you to have additional food intolerance issues, and milk/casein is a very common one. I had about 5 other food intolerances when I found out I had celiac disease, but the good news is that most or all may go away after sufficient time on a gluten-free diet. Once your gut heals you may find that you can tolerate those things again, and for me it took 2-3 years before I added them back (not gluten, of course).

I'm 8 years strict gluten free.  All natural and artificial sweeteners, dairy, chocolate, grains make my stomach hurt, sinuses clog, sleepless, leg twitch.  Cross reaction is big for me.  I was 60 at diagnosis with decades of symptoms, and I think my poor body developed all sorts of damage and sensitivity. I've learned to enjoy other treats like roasted rutabaga, and I've lost my sweet tooth.  I only eat my own food, bring it to restaurants and potlucks.  Pity I'm not a better cook!  Keeps me slim...

By the way, if staying gluten-free is an issue this article may be helpful:

@scott adams Hi Scott. Please can I ask which foods you had to eliminate and later on managed to reintroduce? Many thanks.

      Have Tru Joy Sweets Choco Chews been discontinued??

      They both do. The peanuts add nutrients to the treat. Tootsie Roll: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Palm Oil, Condensed Skim Milk, Cocoa, Whey, Soy Lecithin, Artificial and Natural Flavors.

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets...

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values. Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup. I use them as a gluten free substitute...

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field.  Some days I would just like to scream.  So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach them properly. I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
