Rice Milk .002% Gluten From Barley


BarbaQ

Recommended Posts

BarbaQ Rookie

Hello

My 1 1/2 year old son has just been diagnosed with gluten intolerance. We are trying to come to terms with what this really means. We knew he had allergies and were in the middle of an exclusion diet when he tested positive for gluten. He is also dairy intolerant, allergic to chick peas, split peas, green peas and lentils.

Can he have rice milk? It states on the container that it has .002% gluten from barley. Any advice?

Thanks

Barb

No, he can not have that brand rice milk. I am sure someone will post safe brands of Rice Milk and other dairy free alternatives.

I wouldnt give it to him. I struggled for a long time to find a "milk" I actually like. Mostly I make my own almond or hazelnut milk. But I do buy this brand. We all like it and it is good to cook/bake with :

He can't have that brand of rice milk. He can have Pacific rice milk, Whole Foods 365 brand rice milk....there are a few others as well. You can also just go entirely without milk substitutes if your son doesn't really like them.

Oh - and I second Shay's hemp milk suggestion. That brand is quite good and offers some nutrition you won't find in many of the "milks" out there. :)

I use the plain hemp milk to make white "cream" sauces and it is yummy. :)

Rice milk has gluten? I hadn't checked into it yet but was planning to now that I know I'm lactose intolerant. Wow!

ShayFL Enthusiast

Only some brands Beth. You have to read labels and sometimes call manufacturers.

I third it - and it's cheaper even at Whole Foods than it is on the website that Shay gave. (I think I pay $3.99 a box or something like that.) The vanilla makes a FABULOUS latte!

I buy it at Whole Foods too. I just linked to the site so she could "see" it.

It does! I especially love chai lattes made w/ the vanilla flavor. YUM! It's great for baking too, and for smoothies, and for cereal. It's pretty much just awesome in every way! :lol: (I really am not a hemp milk sales person, I promise LOL).

Beth in NC Contributor

Which of the Hemp milks would you put over cereal...Rice Chex...I was just loving getting a cold bowl of cereal when I realized the lactose intolerance.

Original or Vanilla?

ShayFL Enthusiast

I think either one would be fine Beth. I always just buy the original. If you want it vanilla. Add a tsp of vanilla extract to it. :)

I buy their milk too. It's really good, but it has a bit of a "nutty" taste, but it's so creamy and I love it.

Yes, I'd advise against feeding your son that rice milk (probably Rice Dream). Instead, I'd feed him nut or soy milk made by Pacific Organic Foods. But please be further advised that none of these is a baby formula. - P.J.

stick with Soy Milk or Hemp Milk

Giving soy to little boys (or anybody for that matter) is a bad idea, it will affect his sexual maturation due to the phytoestrogens in soy. Stick with rice, almond or hemp milk instead.

Okay so what is everyone's opinion on Goats Milk instead of cow's milk? I know there's the lactose intolerant crowd and the caisen sensitive crowd and supposedly goat's milk is okay for caisen sensitive? I haven't looked into this yet, it's just what DH was telling me because he thinks he is caisen sensitive.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
