Just Diag'd, Question About Dairy

I don't think I have a problem with dairy, but I'm not sure. Aside from elminating it from my diet are there any tests anyone has taken. I have yet to search the forums more thouroughly, but is there a comprehensive list of products that seem to be gluten free but aren't? One that I don't have to pay for, ie the application in the store on this site. I'm finding it difficult to figure out what ingredients are ok and what aren't. I don't have the money to go fully organic, so I'm still going to have to get a lot of stuff from a regular grocery store which means knowing ingredients. Even a book that someone recommends would help.

I found out I have celiacs last friday so I'm a complete n00b at all this.

Oh, and the most important and probably widely asked question, is there beer that I can drink? ;)

Enterolab tests for casein intolerance -- I imagine there are a number of other labs that do as well. Casein intolerance would indicate that you should eliminate dairy for good. I tested negative, but have found that, since about a month into the diet, I'm incredibly sensitive to dairy as well -- which seems to be the same lactose intolerance that may or may not go away as I heal. I was using Lactaid for a while while I ate dairy, but it began to feel like spinning a roulette wheel because I couldn't seem to control whether I was taking enough or not to digest the lactose, so I've cut dairy out completely for the time being.

I love dairy ... if I have to give up dairy I think I'll just keep eating what I want and deal with the pain and the small life expectancy ;)

I'm right with you on that one -- I love nothing more than cheese, but, for me, the symptoms aren't worth it right now.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Nausea

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana
