Does anyone know whether cheese is gluten free? She is fine with dairy products and eats gluten free yoghurt I would like to try her with a piece of cheese.

With the exception of some blue cheeses, cheese is gluten free. If in doubt, Kraft will clearly list gluten.

If you are newly diagnosed, you might hold off on the dairy for a while. I thought my daughter was reacting wonderfully to the gluten free diet, until i made her casein free as well, WOW what an even bigger improvement! Good luck!

Its not just Bleu cheese, its any soft cheese. Bleu Cheese is just the most popular. Because Cheese making is an art, and the processes are kept secret, they do not have to list if they use bread to make the cultures for the soft cheese... so none of them can be considered safe... Richly veined cheeses like Maytag blue and Stilton are off limits as well. Thats what I found in the Gluten Free Bible and other gluten-free books I can't rememeber right now!

Now, some of the blue cheeses are made with a synthetic starter, as opposed to wheat starters. I would suggest calling the company. There are many brands of blue cheeses' that are gluten free. I doubt that you daughter is a fan of blue cheese, though.

Most cheeses, soft or hard are gluten free. Kraft is a company that will list all ingredients and a great company to trust. Simply read their label.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks @Beverage for checking in!  I haven't changed the dogs' food yet.  I'm still working through some of the other issues that I need to remedy (transitioning to an anti-inflammatory diet, being sure to get only gluten-free certified items, and buying some new cookware for my kitchen).  Somewhere after that, I have on my list to try out the dogs on a new dog food, but I haven't gotten there yet.  In the meantime, though, I can definitely see that some of my worst days seem to follow when there's a possibility of gluten cross-contamination (I'm still working to cut waaay down on these instances) OR when I eat anything with dairy/ milk protein in it.  So I think I need to really get a better handle on my day-to-day eating habits to reduce all gluten cross-contamination into my food and also any dairy intake, and then at that point, I think I'll start moving over to the dog food thing.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I don't think you have the URL/site address correct, as there is nothing at that site.

      Hello All I am traveling to Germany in October and will be in Berlin, Rothenburg ODT , Salzburg, Fussen and Munich.  I am also driving the northern part of the romantic road with stops in some of the smaller towns along the way.  I would really appreciate any recommendations for gluten-free friendly places, restaurants and any gluten-free beer gardens.  Thanks in advance, Laura
