Most of it? I've never seen any carbs in margarine, and since lactose is a sugar... :)

I do know that Smart Balance Light is Gluten-free Casein-free (casein free - no dairy whatsoever). Regular butter is actually likely to be just fine if she's only avoiding lactose, as the fat is easy to separate from the sugars; it's separating *all* the protein that's hard.

Welcome to the board!

I really like the margarine from Open Original Shared Link. It's actually better than I thought it would be. The part I like is that it comes in a stick, not that fake, watered-down butter-wanna-be junk in a tub. It's also non-hydrogenated, has no trans-fat, and a bunch of other good things. It even works for baking and frying. They do have stuff in tubs though for those who prefer it.

Hmmm...can you explain further? Because last I knew carbohydrates and sugars are two separate things, and would get listed separately.

The typical margarines usually have whey. I just did a quick Google, and the first site I found says whey is largely lactose.

<EDIT>

From the US Dairy Export Council:

Typical Composition of Whey

Protein 11.0%–14.5%

Lactose 63.0%–75.0%

Fat 1.0%–1.5%

Ash 8.2%–8.8%

Moisture 3.5%–5.0%

two that i know of are Fleischman's No Salt Margarine (only no salt) and Willow Run Soybean Margarine. I recommend the latter, but I'm not sure how easy it is to find. The Fleischman's is a little bland.

      Could this be a new intolerance

      @Celiacpartner, I agree with Scott. We have a food festival yearly in the town I live in, with artisan food stalls everywhere. I spoke to the owner of one of the artisan burger stalls, enquiring if the burgers were gluten-free when I said I was Coeliac ... he said he had a serious anaphylactic allergy to fish himself. He possibly carries an epi-pen or...

      Could this be a new intolerance

      After years of stable management, developing new symptoms to historically safe foods like nuts and fish strongly suggests a secondary issue has developed. It is highly unlikely to be a new gluten issue if the foods themselves are certified gluten-free. The most probable explanations are a new, separate food intolerance (perhaps to a specific protein in certain...

      Could this be a new intolerance

      Nuts are a common source of food allergy reaction/intolerance/sensitivity. But fish usually not. Of course, intolerances can develop to any food, whether or not they are common ones. I'm at a loss here.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      Your doctor's recommendation to wait three months is very sound and aligns with general advice for celiac disease. While the acute GI symptoms resolve quickly, the autoimmune response and intestinal inflammation can linger, impairing nutrient absorption crucial for early fetal development. This three-month window allows your body to calm the immune response...

      He’s noticed it after having a few different kinds of nuts and nuts on top of a gluten free nut bar. and it’s happened after having some fresh caught fish, and tonight from packaged plain salmon from the supermarket. He has stomach cramps and feels the need to vomit to try and relieve the symptoms.

He possibly carries an epi-pen or two everywhere he goes. I would go see an allergist as soon as possible as suggested.

      After years of stable management, developing new symptoms to historically safe foods like nuts and fish strongly suggests a secondary issue has developed. It is highly unlikely to be a new gluten issue if the foods themselves are certified gluten-free. The most probable explanations are a new, separate food intolerance (perhaps to a specific protein in certain nuts or fish) or a true IgE-mediated food allergy, which can develop at any age. The symptoms you describe—cramps and the urge to vomit—can be consistent with either. It is crucial he sees an allergist for proper testing (like a skin prick or blood test) to identify the specific culprit and rule out a serious allergy, as reactions can sometimes worsen with repeated exposure.

While the acute GI symptoms resolve quickly, the autoimmune response and intestinal inflammation can linger, impairing nutrient absorption crucial for early fetal development. This three-month window allows your body to calm the immune response and for your gut to fully heal, ensuring you are in the best possible nutritional health for conception and pregnancy. In the meantime, focus on hydrating, eating nourishing, easily digestible foods, and resting—your body needs time to recover. It's a frustrating delay, but it's the best step for a healthy pregnancy.
