Hi, my son is gluten free and dairy free. He really misses his gluten free pizzas. I found Veggie Cheese but it is only lactose free and contain a small amount of casein so it is out. I also found a vegan cheese on line for $5.00 a pound but the shipping was $28.00 :ph34r: . Any ideas?

Some one else on here mentioned Chreese. I just bought a pack of it but haven't tried it yet. It's more like a cheese sauce than for pizza. It's made by Road's End Organics and you can order online. They might have a pizza recipe or something.

Im glad someone asked, i have been wanting some kind of cheese but have no idea what is safe and what isnt. I do know if u get vegan cheese it is supposed to be 100 percent casein free. I have looked at stores here and i cant find anything. I wanted to look online, but afraid of getting cheese in the mail lol

Hi,

I have severe lactose intolerance but for some reason can eat extra old cheddar. Talked to my doctor and he said it has something to do with the age and the amount of bacteria that balances it and doesn't affect me.

Just thought I'd share, I can't eat a big chunk but a little in my salad and I am fine.

Thanks for letting me know, Im trying to make it 6 months or an yr then reintroduce and i hope to be able to eat it again. I will start with the old cheddar and see if that works. I will be so happy if i can eat cheese again in 5-11 months lol

oH I'm so praying someone comes on to tell us there is a chees that is c/f...and soy free

I want some pizza.

i perfected my gluten-free pizza but it didn't agree with me so...........then the tests showed casein intollerance.

Let's keep bumping this up.

Think someone said Andrea had some chesses.

There's a Veggie Gourmet that I've found at Whole Foods, PCC, and Wild Oats that I haven't gotten around to trying yet that's suppose to melt well. (It has soy, btw.) But there really isn't much at all. Cheese is an issue.

One thing to note, I was diagnosed as lactose intolerance. Then later gluten. After cutting the gluten off for a long time, I thought of trying milk/cheese again. What the hey, I was fine with that. I think there are a lot of people out there that where originally told lactose was the problem. Its hard to test with a kid, but I just decided to try it out as an adult. I can eat cheese again. hooray.

Though, since humans were not really designed to be able to tolerate cow milk, it makes sense that a lot of us can not have it. Just wish cheese didn't taste so good.

Okay guys, I'm new here but I am definitely able to help in this respect.

I work at Stop&Shop supermarket in the Cheese Department, and I have good news. :) Hopefully this helps some of you. Boar's Head Products (also available online) are 100% gluten free. SOME, including Muenster and Gold Label Swiss (I know these two for a fact) are Lactose free as well. I have asked my rep time and time again about this, and the labels on them say they are gluten free as well.

The cheeses are AMAZING, for seven and change a pound they ought to be, but hey, who's stopping you from going to your local deli (or online) and ordering a hunk of it to shred and make yourselves some pizza?! They also come prepackaged (I sell these in my department)

Lots of options too,

Pepper Jack

American

Havarti Plain/Havarti with Dill

Baby Swiss/Lacey Swiss/Gold Label Swiss

Monterey Jack

Muenster

Gruyere/Smoked Gruyere

Mozzerella

Etc.

Hope I helped you guys some :)

It really depends on what your issue is with cheese. If it's lactose, a lot of harder sorts of cheese are probably ok because hard cheeses that have matured for a while really don't have much lactose in them at all, it gets broken down in the maturing process.

If it's casein, though, it's much harder because even a lot of "dairy free" cheeses have casein.

I looked at the Boar's Head cheeses and while they are gluten free, and that's nice to know, they are definitely not dairy free.

I'm sensitive to cow's milk but I'm fine with hard matured goats cheese, that might be a solution to some of you casein intolerant people. The only way to find out I guess is to try.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
