Coughing Up Phlegm?

I guess this is more of a soy/dairy question.

I've been coughing up a lot of phlegm lately. It seems like dairy products make it a lot worse (which would make sense because I have a milk allergy). Today I started coughing up a lot of phlegm after I had soy milk.

Any ideas why this suddenly started happening? It was never a problem until the last month or so. The phlegm is whiteish/yellowish color from what I've seen. I went to my doctor and she said it's not an infection. I'm taking advair and singulair, but they don't seem to help too much.

It sounds like you have a respiratory allergy, and that Advair and Singulair are not the right drugs to help you with it. I use Actifed for mine.

I don't know the typical ingredients in soy milk, but I know soy cheeses often have casein, which is the primary milk protein. So if you switched brands or the company changed the ingredients, that might do it I suppose. Of course it could be something else which you aren't yet thinking of.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
