Darifree

Yesterday I found a new health food store about 60 miles from me (in Tupelo, MS). I saw Vance's Darifree on the shelf....I'd never seen this at Wild Oats where I usually shop. Anyway, because I've heard Vincent talk so much about it, I decided to look beyond the price and give it a go. THANK YOU, VINCENT!!!

Finally, I think I have a milk substitute that works for me :) I can't do dairy. Soy milk hurts like gluten. I don't care for the taste of any of the nut-based or safe rice-based alternatives. (I had loved Rice Dream the 3 or 4 times I tried it, but it always made me very sick. THEN I read on here that its processed with Barley.) I was really struggling for something to put on my Enjoy Life granola.

Ta daaa!!! If you're looking for a milk substitute and haven't found one. I second Vincent....try Darifree. A little expensive...about $9 for a quart of powdered mix, but this will yield 6 qts of milk when mixed as directed with water. Tastes good, too!

Thanks again, Vincent. I wouldn't have tried it without the the endorsement. This board has been my Celiac salvation!

Its not realy bad. 1/2gal of Soy milk runs $2-$4 pending brand. 1/2 Gal of Darifree is just under $3. Since your buying 6 quarts at once it looks much more expensive then it is.

I also tried the Dari free...it was good but I only had a small amount before I reacted to it. At the time I didnt know why I reacted to it but I was pretty darn frusterated after spending $10 on it. I also cant tolerate any of the soy/rice/almond milks so that pretty much left me with homemade rice milk and water. :(

I found out last week why I react to all those gluten-free drinks...cuz I'm corn intolerant and they all have corn derivatives in them. :o On the bright side I can now drink Organic Valley whole milk....the only one thats corn free. I have no problems with the milk!! All this time I've been avoiding milk cuz of reactions and its really corn thats the problem!

Now I have an almost full carton of darifree that I cant drink. Its pretty good stuff though...a little sweet but not bad. If you can find it give it a try...not if you're corn intolerant though. ;)

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
