Casin Sensitivity

What symptoms do you experience with the casin sensitivity? I think I have a casin intorlerance or sensitivity as whenever I have milk I get bloating and my stomatch hurts a little and I feel like throwing up.

Thanks!

I had the same symptoms as gluten. I kept thinking I was getting cc or something. Brain fog, diarrhea, bloating (in fact, my fingers are smaller now that I'm off dairy), constipation.

I get sinus congestion (and every cold turns into a sinus infection), constipation, bloating, gas and excruciating intestinal pains which come in waves and feel like severe menstrual cramps.

DITTO!!! And since going gluten/casein free haven't had a sinus infection. I still get the intestinal pains but not nearly as much, but then I'm not really careful about cross-contamination on the casein side...gluten yes, but not casein so much.

I get more or less the same symptoms as from gluten. Yours could also be from just lactose, milk sugar. You could try some milk with Lactaid and see if you still get symptoms.

What exactly is casein? It seems to be lactose related?? I have been having many of these symptoms too. Is this something else to get tested for or is it a trial and error thing?

Thanks!!

Casein is the main protein in cow's milk. Lactose is milk sugar. While you can have a dairy product with no lactose - like a hard, aged cheese - or with no casein - clarified butter - generally they have both in them.

Give dairy up for a week to see how you feel. Even if you have yourself tested and come up negative, you may still find heath improvements from eliminating it from your diet. It's what makes you healthier that matters, not some numbers on a sheet.

I'm not sure if it's specifically casien that is my problem, but dairy makes my eczema flare up.

I get diarrhea, start vomiting, shaking and then start to have trouble breathing. I have to take benadryl and ant-inausea medication to make it stop. If I don't it lasts 6 hours. :(

Take care,

June :lol:

basically they can be the same as if you have been glutend, well they are for me anyway. the D is a bad one for me, although when i get glutend i tend to suffer with C which is strange. i suffer with the D and C when glutend but more C when glutend

For me, constipation and brain fog. For me, brain fog was not caused by gluten...but dairy. I've confirmed this several times. Accidentally had dairy last week :( and the brain fog returned like clockwork.

I would get painful bloating and waves of nausea + soft stools almost exactly 2 hrs after ingesting dairy. I kept thinking I was getting 'gluten poisoning', too. Going off dairy made a HUGE difference.

To test if casein or lactose, I fould some gluten-free and soy-free 'cheese' (I think from galaxy nutritional foods; rice shreds). It happened to list casein right in the ingredients, but claimed to be almost totally lactose-fee.

Hope you figure it out soon.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!

      So interesting that you stated you had sub clinical vitamin deficiencies. When I was first diagnosed with celiac disease (silent), the vitamin levels my doctor did test for were mostly within normal range (lower end) with the exception of vitamin D. I believe he tested D, B12, magnesium, and iron.  I wondered how it was possible that I had celiac disease without being deficient in everything!  I’m wondering now if I have subclinical vitamin deficiencies as well, because even though I remain gluten free, I struggle with insomnia, low energy, body aches, etc.  It’s truly frustrating when you stay true to the gluten-free diet, yet feel fatigued most days. I’ll definitely try the B-complex, and the Benfotiamine again, and will keep you posted. Thanks once again!

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.

      Wheatwacked, what exactly did you intend when you stated that wheat is incorporated into the milk of cows fed wheat? Obviously, the gluten would be broken down by digestion and is too large a molecule anyway to cross the intestinal membrane and get into the bloodstream of the cow. What is it from the wheat that you are saying becomes incorporated into the milk protein?
    • Scott Adams
      Wheat in cow feed would not equal gluten in the milk, @Wheatwacked, please back up extraordinary claims like this with some scientific backing, as I've never heard that cow's milk could contain gluten due to what the cow eats.
