What do we use to put on our cereal and in baking recipes? Gluten-free shells and cheese calls for 1/4 c. milk. I can't do lactose, soy, rice? What is out there?? NEED HELP QUICK!!!! :o

Can you use lacteez (or lactaid) milk? I thought those were milk with lactose removed.

We use this for our celiac DD and it doesn't affect her stomach like regular milk does.

Good luck

I make my own Open Original Shared Link. It has more almond in it than commercial almond milk. For more body, you can add xanthan gum (as they do) or some fresh cooked rice.

My thanks to all who have responded! I have never heard of almond milk. Is it in the cooler at the store or on the shelf? I will certainly give that a try. Hopefully I can find it. I know Akins doesn't have it cuz I have looked closely at all of their milks; maybe at Wild Oats. Thanks again.

You'll be able to find it at Wild Oats. It's usually found on the shelves. Almond Breeze is really good (a bit sugary - but really good :))

Generally it is sold in on the shelf in a box. I find it in any supermarket that has a decent natural and/or gluten-free section.

This may be a silly question, but does Almond milk taste like almonds, or milk?

Neither - but it is better than rice milk :)

I don't really like any of it for drinking, but the almond milk (I've only tried the vanilla flavored) is decent for cereal and baking. Any of the alternative milks will work for baking/cooking though.

Almond Breeze now has unsweetened milks!! :) That makes me very happy!

I also vote for almond milk. We drank that and used it for cereal and baking when we were vegetarian. I liked it the best of all the milk alternatives.

I have a silly question - I had the skin prick allergy test recently and the dr. said I was "midly" sensitive to almonds (I've never noticed any problem before, but I don't eat almonds unless they just happen to be in something). I recently bought the Almond milk (I don't really like the rice milks and am trying not to drink too much soy) - would this be a problem if I am "mildly allergic" to almonds? And what does "mildly allergic" mean anyway?! I've used it several times with a bowl of cereal, and haven't noticed any ill effects, but then again I've only been gluten-free for about 2 months and have not had much improvement anyway (still D about 5 times a day - down from 8-10 though) :)

      Am I nuts?

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.

      Thanks to both of you for your responses! Sadly, even after several years of very strict gluten avoidance, I remember the symptoms well enough that I am too frightened to risk a gluten challenge— heartbeat and breathing problems are scary— Scott, thank you for the specific information— I will call around in the new year to see if I can find anyone.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      That’s really frustrating, I’m sorry you went through that. High fiber can definitely cause sudden stomach issues, especially if your body isn’t used to it yet, but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom journal and introducing new foods one at a time can really help you spot patterns. You’re already doing the right things ...

      Anti-endomysial Antibody (EMA) Testing

      I thought this might be of interest regarding anti-EMA testing. Some labs use donated umbilical cord instead of monkey oesophagus. Some labs just provide a +ve/-ve test result but others provide a grade by testing progressively diluted blood sample. https://www.aesku.com/index.php/ifu-download/1367-ema-instruction-manual-en-1/file Fluorescence-labelled...

In the meantime, I will carry on has I have been— it’s working! Thanks also for the validation— sometimes I just feel crushed by disbelief. Not enough to make me eat gluten though—

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @GlorietaKaro! As Scott indicated, without formal testing for celiac disease, which would require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten daily for weeks, it would be not be possible to distinguish whether you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Their symptoms overlap. The difference being that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. We actually no more about celiac disease than we do about NCGS, the mechanism of the latter being more difficult to classify. There are specific antibody tests for celiac disease diagnosis and there is also the endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining. Currently, there are no tests to diagnose NCGS. Celiac disease must first ruled out. Researchers are working on developing testing methods to diagnose celiac disease that do not require a "gluten challenge" which is just out of the question for so many because it poses serious, even life-threatening, health risks. But we aren't there yet.

Keeping a simple food/symptom journal and introducing new foods one at a time can really help you spot patterns. You’re already doing the right things with cleaning and separating baking—also watch shared toasters, cutting boards, and labels like “may contain.”

Some labs just provide a +ve/-ve test result but others provide a grade by testing progressively diluted blood sample. https://www.aesku.com/index.php/ifu-download/1367-ema-instruction-manual-en-1/file Fluorescence-labelled anti-tTG2 autoantibodies bind to endomysium (the thin layer around muscle fibres) forming a characteristic honeycomb pattern under the microscope - this is highly specific to coeliac disease. The binding site is extracellular tTG2 bound to fibronectin and collagen. Human or monkey derived endomysium is necessary because tTG2 from other mammals does not provide the right binding epitope. https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/3/1012
