If you can have soy, I believe there's soemthing called Vegan Slices (or Soymage maybe?)

You can try chreese (www.chreese.com)

Or...

You can try to make raw vegan cheese with cashews (I don't have a recipe on hand but I know there are some on this board)

Thanks :) We arent avoiding soy yet, just dairy and gluten. I dont give her nuts too much but I'll search for the recipe for future use. I'll look for vegan slices and chreese today as I'm going to our local health food store. This is mainly for my daughter but my husband does like some cheese for pizza.

there are new vegan rice slices out that are soy, gluten and casein free. i've only found the slices so far and for satisfying the cheese cravings they're okay but my husband (no food allergies) took one bite and said no way :lol: they are made by Galaxy foods and i found them at my whole foods.

Here's a link to a previous discussion. Someone posted a TON of Gluten-free Casein-free cheese recipes here about a year ago, but I can't remember who it was, maybe AndreaB???? I'm just guessing.

There's still a chance at REAL cheese.

A great many people w/ casein problems are better classified as having cow's milk casein problems, allowing goat & sheep.

I had a fantastic Dutch Goat Gouda awhile back, yum. Not sure if it's easily determined besides eat & hope tho.

we like tofutti cheese (sour cream and cream cheese too tofutti), it is soy and tofu.....I haven't been able to find any other cheeses near me that are casein free. I seen some of the vegan ones but then casein is still listed as an ingredient...how do they get away with calling them vegan.....stay away from veggie cheese it has casein in it.

I believe that to legally call something VEGAN it cannot have any part coming from an animal. At least that is what I have been told and have found to be true. The Casein found in Vegan products is vegetable based. I think from beets?? I have no idea how that works, but Vegan cheese even with the vegetable Casein has not caused a problem for us. My child reacts to the lactic acid starter cultures found in other products, so I think she is pretty sensitive.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If your tTg-IgA was 28 and positive is at 3, you are nearly 10x over the positive marker, so the most likely explanation by far would be celiac disease. I also do not understand why your doctor would not want to run the blood test, which is the normal first step in the diagnosis process.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      By trents · Posted

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352
