Cheese?

Does anyone have a reaction to just cheese? not dairy, just cheese? I seem to get a bellyache after I eat cheese, no matter what kind. I thought ok, its a dairy issue, but then goat cheese bothered me too, and that isnt considered dairy in allergen terms. Could it be just too rich for me? or am I just deluding myself and its a dairy allergy?

Do you eat certain cheeses? Or is it all cheese?

Can one be allergic or sensitive to rennet, perhaps?

Assuming you don't drink whole milk, maybe it's the fat.

When I was narrowing down my reaction to dairy, I tried a soy cheese, which only had casein as a dairy ingredient. It still bothered me, so I knew from this it was more than just lactose.

hmmm, those both sound good lorka, shredded cheddar doesnt bother me, its the fuller body cheese, like brie, goat cheese.. those heavy cheeses, maybe it is the fat.. hmmmm.. now I be thinkin.. thanks

oh yeah lorka, thanks for that bread you gave us the recipe for, not only is it good, but it is helping my sons digestive system, I only have to give him three little squares a day, and his system works great, no constipation.. but of course he has to eat the whole slice.. but once in a while he will only take a few bites, but it works.. thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

i just wanted to add that goat cheese has casein, too. i forgot about that - i have to strictly stay away from all casein.

i hope your figure out what's bothering your belly. i make homemade cheese substitutes (even the non-dairy cheeses (the ones that are casein free, too) have fillers and rice (i'm allergic to rice) and i can't have them.

perhaps also taking a probiotic might help - do you?

you're welcome about the bread. that is really my aim here - to provide good, nutritious foods, in addition to tasting delightful, and able to adapt to free of all the higher allergens. i am so glad that your son has enjoyed it.

Cheeses are very high in Amines also if you want to consider that. These foods include dark chocolate, alot of fish and sausages. Amines are a result of protein breaking down. Therefore, aged orvercooked and processed meats are high in amines. Browning, grilling, charring will increase amine levels. Amines increase in ripening fruits that go soft, e.g. bananas, avocado.

I'll react to the overipe bananas, avocado and chocolate. My stomach can tolorate a certain level of the amines in cheese as long as the cheese isn't aged long.

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia.   going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 90s, but still I’m kind of confused why my gallbladder my joint pain flatulent that I complained of constantly was totally ignored. Is it not something that is taught to our medical system? It wasn’t a Doctor Who asked for the test to be done. I asked for it because of something I had read and my test came back positive. My number was quite high.Are there other people out here that had this kind of problems and they were ignored?

      Welcome to celiac.com, @EndlessSummer! Do you react to all vegetables or just specific kinds or families of them? What you describe with green beans sounds like it has an anaphylaxis component. Like you, walnuts are a problem for me. They will often give me a scratchy throat so I try to avoid them. Does it matter if the vegies are raw or will-cooked in how you react to them?
