Nyc Nutritionist For Celiac


angel42

Recommended Posts

angel42 Enthusiast

Hi,

Since being diagnosed I have pretty much put myself on an extremely restricted diet. It seems like all I eat anymore is eggs, fish, yogurt and cheese since I know those are safe. I need to vary my diet a bit without having to worry about getting sick. I have actually been losing weight which in my case is not actually a good thing since I am already thin. I thought a Nutritionist would help but I need to make sure they are familiar with Celiac since it'll be kind of pointless if they don't. Can anyone help?

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the nutritionist I was going to the first half of this year had an office in NY as well as down here in central jersey... she's actually up at her office in NY (Staten Island it looks like from her business card) every day but one during the week.. her son was diagnosed with celiac disease so she's familiar with it and she's fairly knowledgable about a lot you see discussed on this board (candida, adrenal fatigue, food intolerances, etc.)...

it may be a bit pricey to see her but that's probably the case for most nutritionists as insurance frequently doesn't cover it (and only the first visit costs a lot due to an evaluation she does of your health for which she provides an extensive document analyzing your situation and providing a gameplan), but it's worth it to at least give the office a call and set up a free consultation... personally, although I'm still trying to figure some things out, I did find it beneficial going to her earlier this year and learned a lot from it.. I also plan on going back again soon enough after getting a food intolerance test done with immunolabs... also, she's very good at getting back to you either through email or by phone

her information is:

Dr. Adria Rothfeld-Magenheim

Anne Lee at Columbia. They have a special center for celiac there, and she is a nutritionist that specializes in it.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
