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!

      Chances of being coeliac

      By trents · Posted

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      TTG IgA reference range 0.0 to 14.9 KU/L

      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.

      I have had the tTG-IgA blood test my result are >250.0  I am waiting for the appointment with the gastroenterologist for endoscopy and biopsies.    what are the chances it’s not coeliacs.  waiting and not knowing is so hard. Especially the eating of gluten knowing it may be causing you more harm and coping with the symptoms.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?
