It's gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free and I really want to try it :lol: , but I can't find it anywhere. Has anyone tried it? Is it good?

How ironic! I was JUST going out to buy some in a few minutes! I saw it a few days ago in Whole Foods, but they only had the peach version. I don't care for peach much, and I wasn't sure if it was gluten free, so I went home and looked it up on the computer. I'm going back today in hopes that they'll have the blueberry or strawberry version! It'll be nice because I don't feel that confident in my "Whole Soy" yogurt cups...I hear that with hormone problems, soy isn't the best for ya. So I'm excited to test this out!

:lol: Cool. I will look forward to your review of the product if you end up trying it :)

ooo... maybe they'll put out a plain that doesn't have so much sugar (but also doesn't have artificial sweeteners) soon.

This looks great--if it didn't contain tapioca, I'd be all over it. I miss yogurt!

Okay, so I took that drive down to whole foods and to my surprise, they were already sold out of Ricera yogurt :( AND to top it all off...it's back-ordered for the whole west coast :( They didn't know that it was going to be so popular! The nice man that was working the dairy section told me that they aren't back ordered on the east coast, so all of you over there are lucky :) But here in California, he said we're going to have to wait QUITE a while until we get a hold of some. Bummer. You all have to get your hands on some and tell me how it is!

Bummer, but thanks for posting that info. I'm in California too, so I'll stop wasting my time trying to find it for a while :). Who would have thought rice yogurt would be that popular :lol:

Thanks for posting that. UNFORTUNATELY I have a diagnosed allergy to cane sugar (evaporated cane juice) which they use in all their flavors. Nevertheless I wrote to them and requested that they consider making an unsweetened variety. I MISS YOGURT, which I gave up 3 years ago after my dairy/casein allergy diagnosis. SIGH

I tried a rice yogurt which I purchased at Whole Foods (east coast). I can't remember if it was Ricera brand. It was just okay in my opinion.

As an aside, I recently have found that although I can't tolerate products made from cow milk, I do fine with ones made from goat and sheep milk. I'm not sure why, but someone mentioned to me that the proteins are different enough between cow and goat/sheep milk that it is possible to react to one but not the other.

Okay so the rice yogurt finally appeared in my health food store..

First I tried the vanilla flavor. It has a chunky, gelatin-like consistancy and, well, it's gross. Stay away from that one.

The blueberry and peach flavors are good - creamy, good texture and everything...but reeeally sweet - like 20 grams of sugar in each cup. Too much. Not bad though for the soy and dairy-free ppl really wanting yogurt.

Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know the stuff is finally available on the West Coast :) I got it for 1.25/cup at my uber crazy expensive health food store...so not bad I guess for a rare specialty item :rolleyes: LOL Happy yogurt eating :D

I'm glad you enjoyed peach and blueberry....stay away from Strawberry though! It's got that gelatin consistancy that you mentioned! Ugh. I'm too scared to try peach or blueberry after that experience. lol.

We use Ricera to make smoothies....dd won't eat them plain. I was bummed. She loved yogurt before she had to give up dairy, and then liked soy yogurt before she had to give up soy. I was hoping this was the ticket, but as you guys said - weird consistency, way too sweet, and also a strange aftertaste. Oh, well....luckily, anything tastes good whirled around in the blender with enough frozen fruit, lol!

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results. Thank you

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to...

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes...

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
