Vanilla Haagen Daaz

Has anyone had a reaction from Haagen Daaz vanilla ice cream?

I ate some on Friday (along with several Lactaids), and I have been sick ever since. A lactose attack doesn't last this long -- so I think I was glutened -- thinking it was the ice cream... boo hoo

Are you sure you are just lactose intolerant and aren't intolerant to casein?

Vanilla extract has to be alcohol free to be gluten free!! I also thought Haagen Daas was on the NO list regardless. Perhaps you should check on that one lady's blog with the product list.

Baskin Robbins has all the allergy info. on their placards in the window of the display.

We can have a few types of Ben and Jerry's and a few other brands.

We can have Wendy's Frosty and some Cold Stone.

The alcohol in extracts is primarily an urban legend. The alcohol is distilled, and may not even come from wheat. Of course, if HD bothers you, try something different (including making your own), but extracts are not, generally speaking, a problem.

I have never been tested for casein intolerance. However, I don't have problems with yogurt which I eat everyday, or cheddar cheese.

I have always had much more severe reactions to heavier milk products like ice cream and creamy sauces - which I generally avoid -- and will only have if I have Lactaid with it.

I have been gluten-free for 6 months and do not see any improvement in the lactose intolerance arena :( Every now and then I just have to dip my toe in the water (or a light socket <_< ) and see what happens.

I am finally feeling better today. I will stay away from Haagen Daaz in the future. It sure was yummy --

I agree with Tiffany, research in the last few years has shown that vanilla extract is NOT a problem. The distillation process of alcohol (even if the alcohol was grain derived) removes any worry for us. Vanilla and vanilla extract are (in most cases) fine and nothing to worry ourselves about.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
