almost 8 weeks off gluten.

still not feeling great.

decided that maybe i should

nix the dairy too.

after MUCH

trial and error,

i finally found a yogurt (wholesoy)

&

milk (kinniknik or whatever: )

that i can eat and drink

w/o gagging.

but after i had soy milk

with gluten-free cereal last night,

i became just as

gassy and bloated and

gurgly as i did with dairy!

maybe even more so!

It could be that you're sensitive to soy as well. My son's allergist says that many people who are sensitive to milk are also sensitive to soy. My daughter had the same reaction you did to soy when she was younger, but now she can tolerate Silk soy milk and Silk soy yogurt, but she was on rice milk for 2 years before we re-introduced soy. You could try almond milk, hazlenut milk or rice milk (we use Whole Foods 360 brand). Many soy yogurts still have dairy in them in the yogurt cultures. You could try just the soy milk without the yogurt and see if you have the same reaction.

Good luck!

Soy does that to me, too. I can't tolerate it.

I like Pacific Rice Milk and their Almond Milk--both vanilla and plain (depending on the situation) :)

That's what we use, too. Soy has *always* bothered me, if I consumed very much of it. My dd had the same reaction to soy that she had to dairy....has given up both, for now. Me, too. At first I thought it was a tragedy, but we've adjusted. I use rice milk or almond milk in place of dairy milk in my cooking, and it works just fine!

Soy does that to me too. Try switching to rice or almond or hemp...

Avoid Blue Diamond almond milk, however -- it has soy.

It's just soy lecithin though I think. That's okay for some ppl with soy problems.

I use almond milk or Dairy Free (potato based milk substitute). The kids prefer Dairy Free for their chocolate milk. The almond milk works really well in baking, mashed potatoes, smoothies, chai lattes, etc.

It's called Ricera. Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's chunky and gross. Just depends on which batch you get I guess. Some people make yogurt out of coconut milk. I've never done it though.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
