Is Lactaid Safe?

I've been still having tummy trouble, and I'm wondering if it's that Lactaid milk I'm drinking. Is that gluten free? Has anyone else had trouble with it?

Yes, Lactaid milk is gluten free and lactose (milk sugar) reduced or free. However, if you have problems with CASEIN (milk protein) as well as lactose, you may have to avoid all dairy. Substitute soy, rice or almond milks to see if you still have problems. ;)

I haven't been feeling that well on Lactaid, either. It's gluten-free but it may not settle well with certain people, I guess.

Gillian: Lactaid helps with lactose (milk sugar) intolerance, but will not protect against CASEIN (milk protein) or whey intolerance problems. Avoiding all dairy and/or substituting soy, rice or almond milks for dairy may prevent those symptoms. ;)

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
