More Than A Gluten Allergy?

Does anyone have an allergy to gluten, dairy, AND eggs? I am new to this and am having a hard time. I'm not finding many foods that I can eat that are free of all 3. I love fruits and veggies, but am getting bored with them. And I'm not a big meat or fish eater either, so I'm really limiting myself. Any advice???

Yep! Soy too! I'll try to post some recipes/ideas when I have time tomorrow. I learned to love rice pilaf made with nuts, spices and dried fruit. Cornbread can be made pretty easily in mini muffin tins. Those are the quickest things I can think of now - more later.

OH YEAH! Intolerant to gluten, milk, casien, egg yolks, almonds, and some other weird foods I dont care about. Usually the other foods inolerances go away after being on a gluten-free diet for awhile. I can have eggs, almonds and stuff now just no gluten or milk. I think whne yuor first diagnosed your intestines are so damgaed your allergic to alot of stuff. Going gluten-free repairs! yayy now if only i had time to cook

I have an important question in this reguard. I'm off gluten, and I still get the runs. Is this a 'symptom of recovery' or a sign I'm allergic to something else?

Check out the cookbook, "Cooking Free", by Carol Fenster. It's got tons of recipes with options to make them gluten/dairy/egg-free - and the recipes taste good, too. This is my favourite cookbook; we use it all the time and like it MUCH better than the Gluten Gourmet ones.

I'm gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free. I do eat eggs, but I don't like meat. I cook a lot with lentils. Go to a great health food store or farmer's market and find new fruits and veggies you've never tried before. You also might want to pick up a raw foods cookbook. Might give you some ideas.

Well, I cked out this post b/c your name was Hoosier--and I'm from Indiana. Not sure if that's why you choose that name though!

Anywho, food allergies often come in groups... and a good number of Celiacs have intolerances/allergies to other foods, as well as gluten. Are you having difficulty finding safe products or coming up with menus that are safe for your diet?

How long have you been G.F?Could anything you ate have been 'cross contaminated'?

Do you still eat milk products?

It took my husband a year or more G.F for the diarrhea to stop (still gets it sometimes)

Anything that has been cross contaminated will also trigger 'D'.

Finally ,alot of coeliacs find they can't tolerate any milk or dairy products (for my husband the lactose intolerance only lasted a couple of months) :)

I'm not from Indiana, but I graduated from IU in 2002. I'd love to move back!

I'm just having difficulty coming up with things to eat. It's just been hard finding things to make (other than chicken, rice, and veggies every night, or pasta) that are egg, dairy, and gluten free. I have found egg and gluten free, so I'm on the right track.

Check out the cookbook, "Cooking Free", by Carol Fenster. It's got tons of recipes with options to make them gluten/dairy/egg-free - and the recipes taste good, too. This is my favourite cookbook; we use it all the time and like it MUCH better than the Gluten Gourmet ones.

Thank you! I will order that now!

Thanks for the advice. I'll start with the farmer's market and try to find something new. Anything besides apples, grapes, and oranges :)

I hear ya! I can't eat gluten, dairy, soy or potatoes! The frustrating part about the potatoes is that potato starch seems to be in every gluten free product on the market today! It is so hard to find things to eat...I'm with ya. Mainly, I just wish it were easier to find something to eat! My local natural foods supermarket has an enormous gluten-free section and I can't eat any of it.

I wish health insurance would pay for a personal chef! :-)

      Potential celiac need advice

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
