Navigating gluten-free And Casein Free

I was Dx 11/04. Now thinking I need to avoid dairy. I am trying to educate myself about dairy free and casein free. I am a bit confused. Any advice would be much appreciated. For example, brands to eat, what to look out for, are eggs okay? Thanks again! ---Jessica

i'm casein free, and i eat eggs, if i didn't, i would have like no protein. For milk, i like Almond Breeze vanilla almond milk, and then you pacific rice milk for baking. Rice Dream is NOT gluten-free, it has barley in it. I like Whole Fruit sorbet for my dessert, it is really good, and they are all gluten-free/CF, and very tastey. there is a website Gluten-free Casein-free.org i think, and they have a lot of good resources, w/ a recipe book and a shopping guide to buy online. they are for autistic children, but they have some really good resources for gluten-free/Cf diets.

To look out for. Sodium/potassium lactate is a really common preservative, whey is bad, and basically chese, milk, butter and other stuff like that.

YOu can PM me or e-mail me with some more questions,

it should make you feel better.

You need to look for casein, milk and possibly whey on labels. Eggs are ok, its just milk derived products that have casein in them.

Thanks so much for the advice. I am still deciding if I want to go that route because I love yogurt. Also, what to use instead of butter and cheese? I also dont know if casein is really the reason I dont feel well. I was diagnosed 11/05, not 11/04. So I still dont feel well even eliminating gluten. Just trying to figure it all out.

      What are your daily meals? Guilty pleasure snacks? Protein bars? I feel when looking for gluten free foods they are filled with sugar cholesterol. Looking for healthy gluten-free protein bars. Something to fill since sometimes I feel like not to eat anything. Especially if on vacation and unsure of cross contamination I figure go with a salad and protein bar to fill and play it safe.

      Unfortunately, there is presently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. NCGS is thought to be much more common than celiac disease. We know that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder but the mechanism of NCGS is less clear. Both call for an elimination of gluten from the diet.

      Thanks for your reply Trents…most appreciated.  I am unfamiliar with celiac labs terminology so I wanted to know if the presence of HLA variants (DA:101, DA:105, DQB1:0301 and DQB1:0501) that the labs detected had any merit in predisposing one to be more sensitive to gluten/carbs than the general population?  Also,  I found what you said about NCGS very interesting and I appreciate you mentioning that.  I’ve worked hard to research and advocate for myself with my Hematologist and now with a new GI, since my bowel surgery and to maintain my Vitamin B12 health concurrent with keeping my levels of Iron in the optimal range. I’ve been tested for SIBO (do not have it), biopsy showed negative for HPylori, and have had Fecal studies done (nothing showed up) and I understand how a loss of a large amount of bowel could be highly impacting re: SIBO, malabsorption and motility issues. So I’ve managed pretty well diet and elimination-wise until just recently. That said, this new problem with extreme bloating, distention and upper girth, NAFLD just occured over the last 4 months so it is new for me and I thought celiac might be a possible issue. I’ll probably just continue on in this less gluten/carbs seem to be better for me and see how reintroducing certain foods go.  Thanks again.

      Thanks bumped it up and now take all 3 vitamins 2 capsules each with the super b complex at breakfast. I will give it some time to see if I notice a difference. I am going to track my eating daily diary on a myfitness pal app to see if the "claimed" gluten free foods bother me or not.

      Please can anyone help. I was diagnosed on 23rd December and I am trying my best to get my head around all the things to look out for. I have read that yeast extract is not to be eaten by coeliacs. Why? And is this all yeast extract. Or is this information wrong. Thanks.
