I cannot have dairy at all and I was wondering what can I use to replace cheese? would goat cheese work?

Thank you!

goat cheese would not work - it still has casein, though some people notice fewer problems as it has a different ratio of casein subtypes. what are you looking to replace cheese in? it is actually fairly difficult to replace cheese in many cases, but my best luck has been by using recipes from raw cookbooks - primarily raw cashew substitutes or nutritional yeast.

ohh I did not know that goat cheese still has casein in it, thank you for telling me that! I would like to put cheese on pizza or stuffed shells things like that but I'm not sure what to use instead of cheese.

dairy really refers to ANY milk - that is, any fluid produced by the mammary glands of a mammal, be it cow, goat, buffalo, human, whale, or mouse. all of it contains casein (it's kinda the defining thing in it), but casein comes in different sub-types, and some people are really only sensitive to one subtype. all types of dairy appear to contain all the subtypes, but some only contain very small amounts of one subtype, while another mammal's milk may contain large amounts of it. that's why some people can tolerate goat's milk but can't tolerate cow's milk. they both still have the proteins, though. it may be worth a shot for you, if you're not horrendously sensitive, but you may well react to it. and you can still be sensitive to the other proteins found in milk, which are also found in all milks. I know, it's not a lot of help, but there's a lot that's hard to know for sure for each individual. :/

I can't eat cow's or sheep's milk cheese, but goat cheese is fine for me.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      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.

      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.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
