Can I Have Soy

I have been gluten free for 10 months. I had neg. bloodwork but tests from Entrolab showed I am DQB1 0302 and 0501 and casein sensitive. I have yet to go dairy free but think I should as I am still having stomach issues. Can I have soy? I think I read here that soy wasn't good for people with celiac but does that go for gluten sensitivity too? What does that leave me with and far as milk for cereal and coffee and my beloved icecream?

He Terese. Well, you could have rice milk (not Rice Dream, as it's not gluten-free), and Rice Dream ice cream (which is gluten-free). Or almond milk on your cereal. There are other choices, but since I am intolerant to all of them, somebody else would have more info.

Maybe you can have soy. Many people with celiac disease are soy and dairy intolerant as well. But by far not all. First eliminate dairy, since you actually tested to be intolerant to it. If you still have stomach issues, it may be something else, and would want to then try cutting out soy.

Thanks Ursula,

I'll try going dairy free and hopfully soy won't be a problem.

Please don't make soy a staple in your diet but us sparingly if you choose to use it. My family that has been tested by enterolab came back with 2 soy intolerant/sensitive and 2 that scored 9 with 10 being the intolerant/sensitive level. Soy is highly allergenic and can cause damage to the intestines as well. Stick with Rice Dream ice cream or sorbet and try and use almond or rice milks (except Rice Dream milk). Try to limit soy to stuff like tofu and even cheese if you need to, unless you are just looking to replace milk and not use other soy products.

Soy for me caused many more problems then I prepared myself for 5 or 6 years ago when I went G&D FREE.

Visit my blogg (rightside) link has info about how bad soy is. There are people that are in denial about the dangers of soy, and plenty of threads here pro and con. But always remember SOY is listed in the 8 deadly allergens.

No -one tells you or prepares you about the secondary food intolerance/allergies that crop up as time passes living with celiac disease. You may think that going G&D FREE you will be healthy. For many of us it's NOT enough. I leaned the hard way that most of us have more then a gluten problem... and there are more things needed to avoid as well.

One last thing -- look into goats milk it doesn't break down like cows milk, or soy does.

      This may not be the cause, it's pure speculation on my part, but for 10-15 years I had a tingling/burning/electric-like shock that emanated from my right-neck upward across my the right-side of my head.

      My question is it possible that Barley is OK > I know wheat gives me stomach pain, rash, and severe diarrhea.

      Celiac flare years after diagnosis

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This may not be the cause, it's pure speculation on my part, but for 10-15 years I had a tingling/burning/electric-like shock sensation that emanated from my right-neck upward across the right-side of my head. I was worried about having a stroke or something so got all sorts of tests done, including an MRI, which found not much--only a minor degenerative disk in my neck--which I just accepted as the cause. Fast forward to when I was ~45 and I was hit with shingles in the EXACT place that this sensation would travel--I ended up with a very painful case of shingles that felt like the right-side of my head had been set on fire, and had the blistering and pain that ran along the exact path of nerves that I had felt this sensation travel along for the prior 10-15 years. For me, this was a shingles warning, and all those feelings were likely inflammation in my nerves. Needless to say I've not had this since getting my shingles vaccines at 50.  Your situation could very well be something else, but I just wanted to mention this possibility because your symptoms sound similar to what I experienced. I'm not sure if you're in the age range to get a shingles vaccine, but it may be something to consider.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Richard Rusnak! The short answer is "No". Barley is a gluten-containing grain. The three gluten-containing grains are wheat, barley and rye.  Barley and rye contain less gluten than wheat but still should be avoided. Understand that smaller amounts of gluten may not produce a noticeable reaction in so far as symptoms go, but they still may be causing some inflammation in the gut. Products derived from gluten-containing grains should also be avoided, for instance malt and malt flavoring.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.
