I Think I Might Be Casein Intolerant Too :(

Okay, research:

Open Original Shared Link

Various reports have indicated that goat milk forms a finer curd than cow milk following acidification, which mimics the conditions in the stomach. These include papers by Jenness (1980) and Haenlein (1992). This difference in curd tension is attributed to the low levels of alpha-s1-casein in goat milk, compared to cow milk. This is a key reason why goat milk is considered more easily digestible than cow milk.

And a good information for not over indulging in goat cheese. :( Oh well, at least a little every now and then. :)

Interesting! Thanks for posting it!

In my Living Without magazine quick start guide is says:

All bovine milk and milk products contain casein. Avoid foods derived from goat and sheep milk as well as, cow dairy products.

I got excited when I saw that post about goat cheese but it looks like it has casein :angry:

All mammal derived milk has casein proteins. It comes in 15 different varities (of casein) but most of them have more than one kind. I'm as sensitive to goat milk as cow.

UGH. Okay, I'm seriously sooo frustrated right now. I quit dairy about 2 weeks ago, and now after over a week of feeling wonderful, having perfectly clear skin, etc., everything seems to be falling apart again. For the past couple days my skin has started breaking out again, I have little red bumps all over my shoulders and back (waaay worse than before I quit dairy), and worst of all I'm having tummy aches constantly!! I'm being SO careful with what I eat, and it seems like I start feeling awful after I eat ANYTHING. I feel like my body's revolting all of a sudden and I can't stop it.

Why would this stuff happen AFTER quitting dairy?! It just doesn't make sense to me!

Maybe it's withdrawal and detoxing. When I quit dairy I had post nasal drip for a week or two, my lymph nodes hurt and my tummy burned. I was starving no matter what I ate. After a week or so it got better. I don't feel hung over every morning now so it's worth it for me.

Hmmm... I've heard of the "detox" period for gluten, but I wasn't sure if that applied to dairy too. Honestly, I didn't feel sick at all after quitting gluten, so this definitely isn't what I expected with dairy. :(

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
