Glutened By Lucerne Plain Yogart?

[PeggyV]

This morning I ate lucerne plain yogurt. It says it uses corn starch. Nothing else suspicious listed. I had it with honey, frozen berries and flax seed meal (bobs). No new shampoo or skin products. I had a reaction very quickly after eating it. (Bloating and D, very tired today) Does anyone have any ideas what has happened? This has happened a couple of other times, not sure if it was Lucerne or Dannon low fat yogurt.

Peggy, I do not think the problem is gluten.... I have never been able to use Lucerne products... yogurt/ cheese /milk. I suspect but do not know for sure... that the culprit may be the type of antibiotic fed to the cows... I react to Lucerne products exactly as you describe and I also react that way to Titracycoline ane Erthromiecine (spell checker not working ).

Wow, never thought of that. I have never had a problem with antibiotice, (but then again cow antibiotics are different I am sure). I not plan on buying it again. Thanks

I know that Caesin, a natural ingredient in milk products, has the same structure as Gluten and some people start having reactions to Caesin after being a GFer for a while b/c your body sees it as gluten and treats it as such. Do you react to other milk or cheese products, goat or cow? It might be something to check into.

No, I dont seem to have a reaction. I eat cheese almost every day and have milk in my coffee. No reation. They are in smaller portions. I will buy another brand of yogat. If I continue having a reaction, I guess I will have to stop dairy.
