Lactose Intolerant.

Hello, I just recently ( 5 days ago ) started a gluten free diet and I feel GREAT. One thing I am wondering though is if my other allergy - lactose - could be mroe sensative when off gluten? Only asking because I had a really bad morning this morning, and someone said maybe it was from the mayo I had yesterday. " Before " going gluten free however I used to be able to have small amounts of mayo and be fine......

Could I be mroe sensative now? Also, is there a mayo that is easier for lactose intolerant people? I REALLY like my tuna on gluten free bread and of course it is dry and yucky without mayo or something.

First of all, there is no lactose in mayonaise -- i just read the ingredients on my hellmans, just to make sure. There is eggs, tho, and there may be soy oil. Many people also have problems with eggs and soy.

Many people do find their other sensitivities become more obvious when they quit gluten - probably because your stomach was so inflamed already, either you didnt notice the other affects, or your stomach is actually managing to absorb more of the offending food than it could before.

You can look for vegan mayonaise to see if the eggs are what is bothering you.

The other thing to keep in mind, some people seem to find that, as their stomachs heal, they just have some bad days, where their stomach just reacts to nothing. So you might want to test the mayo again another day to see if that is really the problem.

Make sure you have a milk free brand of mayo. Some brands have it some don't so double check.

THANK YOU. Mucho helpful. I don't think that I have a prob with eggs or soy, but now I am starting to think I may just try cutting them out and see how it goes.

I found that I couldn't tolerate foods with eggs in after my digestion collapsed and I went gluten-free but after 2 months on the Specific Carb Diet and cutting out all the possible antagonists by just eating plain - good protein, meats, fish and poultry, fresh veg and fruits and a little honey and well-fermented yogurt, my gut has really started to heal and I can now tolerate some of those foods that i couldn't cope with a few weeks ago, like eggs and baking powder.

What is the Specific Carb diet? I have psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and have now discovered I am a coeliac. My psoriatic arthritis is greatly improved on a gluten-free diet but there is no change in my psoriasis. Could I have other intolerances? I have noticed a lot of gluten free products contain corn. Also I have cut out dairy products and take soya instead and I feel much better but again there is no change with my skin. I would love to get it cleared up.

      I know gluten free proteins like eggs and yogurt but nuts especially trail mixes are tricky as they are hard to find certified gluten free trail mixes especially w/o added sugars. I agree subscription boxes are hit or miss I think I have found RXBar with simple ingredients no added sugars gluten-free might be a great protein bar.

      I sure appreciate the information. I knew there had to be gluten consumption for the blood test, but I did not realize that also applied to biopsies. Thank you so much for that nugget of knowledge. I look forward to learning more as I dive into this website and the collective knowledge, experience, and wisdom from those who have gone before and/or those who are just beginning the journey like me.

      Thank you for sharing this — it’s really important. The FDA is actively seeking public input on improving gluten and ingredient labeling, which could directly impact how people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity shop and stay safe. Clearer labeling would help reduce accidental gluten exposure and make it easier to identify hidden sources of gluten in foods. I encourage everyone here who is affected by celiac or gluten sensitivity to read the announcement and submit their own suggestions — real lived experience matters and can influence policy changes that benefit the whole community.

      A low tTG is great news, but it doesn’t always mean the small intestine has fully healed yet—iron and vitamin D absorption can lag behind for months or even years, especially in young children. Many kids need supplements for a period of time while the gut repairs itself, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be lifelong. Morning stomach pain is also commonly reported in celiac kids and can be related to slow healing, reflux, motility, or even low iron itself. It sounds like the supplements are clearly helping, which is reassuring, and ongoing monitoring with her doctor can help determine when (or if) doses can be reduced as absorption improves. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      A lot of gluten-free packaged foods do rely on extra sugar, starches, or sodium to replace texture and flavor, so focusing on simpler options makes sense. Many people do better with naturally gluten-free proteins like eggs, plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, hummus, beans, and minimally processed protein bars with lower added sugar and higher fiber. Pairing those with whole foods can help you feel more “normal” without triggering symptoms. Subscription boxes can be hit or miss, so checking labels carefully and using them as an occasional supplement—rather than a staple—often works best.
