Going Casein-free

I'm already about 75% dairy free from my lactose problems, but now I'm going completely CF for a week or two to see if I feel better. I am starting to feel sick again- headaches, and I still have that stomach bug (but I can keep fluids down OK now and I'm not dehydrated, but I will be seeing the doc tomorrow).

I'm starting to feel a bit like I did pre DX. My knees and hips are sore, my hair is falling out really easily and I'm exhausted. So out goes the casein. I'm also soy-lite: no soymilk or tofu or anything fried in soybean oil, although I do still eat foods with soy lechitin. If going CF doesn't help after a few days, I'll try completely soy free too. I could also stand to eat a little healthier than I have been.

But do I need to be as careful about casein as I am with gluten? Should I be worried about CC?

Thanks everyone for your advice

I have found that being as careful with casein as I am with gluten makes a difference. I've been 90% dairy-free since August and 100% since October. When I do get a little bit of dairy I know immediately - my sinuses flare up, I bloat and feel cranky for several days. It's almost like a gluten reaction to me, but not as bad.

Have you kept a food/symptom journal to see if there may be other offending foods?

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      Helping child go strict gluten-free and concerns about growth/height

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
