Milk?! Thoughts, Veterans, Anyone?

Hi everyone,

I've been gone for awhile working on a Master's degree... sigh. I've also been very well in the intestine dept., but I just spent three horrible glutened nights! The ONLY different thing is some Cumberland Farms milk. Does one have to be careful of milk? Or has anyone reacted to the Rice Chex? I hate these mysterious culprits and I KNOW when I've had gluten; it's like nothing else!

Thank you!

lisa

Did you make sure you ate the new rice chex that is certified gluten free? Old boxes might not be. Some people with celiac react to milk/casein the same as gluten.

I find my sensitivity to dairy to be pretty sporadic. Some days I can get away with dairy, other days forget it ! I can handle a little gluten free pizza with cheese but milk and cookies is too much (ugh, I love gluten-free chocolate chip cookies with a glass of milk). Sometimes I can handle a Dairy Queen sundae, others day I get mild stomach cramps a little while after. Dairy does seem to bloat me a little.

I dunno if it's the lactose of the casein. It might even be linked to a mild glutening - more susceptibility after (my family is not gluten free, just me - so I'm always possibly dealing with cross contamination).

Dairy sensitivity does seem fairly common amoung the celiac crowd.

That is how mine goes too. I can't drink milk or eat icecream, but I am ok with butter or sour cream.

I found this on a site about lactose intolerance:

LACTOSE CONTENT OF COMMON DAIRY FOODS

(The amounts shown for lactose vary because ingredients in products can vary, affecting the lactose content.)

PRODUCT LACTOSE IN GRAMS

Whey, dry (1 oz.)....................................................19-21

Milk, acidophilus skim (1 cup)..................................11

Yogurt, whole milk (1 cup)........................................10-12

Milk, whole (1 cup)...................................................9-14

Buttermilk (1 cup)....................................................9-12

Ice Milk (3/4 cup).....................................................8

Yogurt, lowfat (1 cup)...............................................5-19

Velveeta cheese (11/2 oz.).......................................4

Ice Cream (3/4 cup).................................................3-8

Orange sherbet (3/4 cup).........................................1-2

Half-and-Half, cream, or sour cream (2 Tbs.)..............1

Most hard cheeses (11.5 oz.)...................................1

American cheese, pasteurized processed (1'/2 oz.)....0-6

Ricotta cheese (1/2 cup)..........................................0-6

Cottage cheese, creamed (1/2 cup)..........................0-4

Cream cheese (1.5 oz.)............................................0-1

So that could explain why some things bother us more than others.

Generally speaking I mostly drink soy milk or hemp milk (though hemp is kind of expensive I think). I like Living Harvest. Their vanilla is very creamy and it has a slighty nutty taste. It tastes different than reg milk though and not sure everyone would like it.

Thank you both. No, I don't have a problem with dairy. I was dairy-free for 2 years when I first went off gluten and it's been back in for a year now with no issues. I think this company might have some cc issues because I've never bought this type of milk before. And, yes, the Rice Chex say "gluten-free", though I don't trust much processed food- make most things myself and rarely eat any grains actually!

The mystery continues but thank you for your replies!

I was wondering what the cows were eating, since on other sections of this blog it is said that mothers that breastfeed can pass gluten in their milk... anyone want to speculate on this possibility ?

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
