Cottage Cheese?

:huh: Hope this isn't a dumb question, but I can't seem to find any info on whether cottage cheese contains gluten. I've switched to a lowfat organic variety made by a local company because it contains fewer chemicals than the national brands, but I'm still not sure. :unsure: If regular cottage cheese does contain gluten, could someone tell me the suspect ingredients?

Thanks!

Here are some gluten-free cottage cheese brands that are gluten-free:

Breakstone Cottage Cheese, regular only

Cabot's (the modified food starch is corn)

Darigold Cottage Cheese

This is all I could find from my list, I hope it helps :)

I don't eat Cottage cheese and have no idea what ingredients are suspicious except for "modified food starch". ;)

Thanks for that...unfortunately, none of those brands are available where I live. :( We have Viva, Meadow Gold, Horizon (the organic kind I'm currently eating) and store brands. I contacted Horizon to ask about this and got no reply. Hmmmm....

I am sorry to hear that :( I looked on my list for those brands you mentioned and they were not there, sorry!

Maybe someone else will come along that eats it and knows of another brand that may be available in your area. :)

Since we are on this topic... anyone know if Light n' Livey cottage cheese is gluten free? It's my favorite and I can't seem to find out.

Thanks!

i dont know where any of you are from--i am in michigan and here i know that prairie farms cottage cheese, michigan cottage cheese, country fresh cottage cheese and kroger brand are all gluten-free--i have eaten them all and they are fine, the one item that upsets me is columbo yogurt--i love it and i cant find it anywhere except in the vending machine in our local hospital--i hate yogurt, but i do like this one brand--usually the only ingredient in cottage cheese that could be a problem is modified food starch and the brands i mentioned have corn starch in them--hope this helps a little--deb :D

Erica, Light'n Lively is a Kraft product and Kraft has an allergen disclosure policy. Any ingredient it uses that is made from a known allergen will be listed after the ingredient in paranthesis. So, I checked my carton and it is gluten-free. :)

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Talk to your  Talk to your provider about testing for vitamin and mineral deficiency.  celiac disease causes malabsorption and eventually malnutrition.  Especially vitamin D. Having the gallbladder removed seems to be a common step on the way to a Celiac Disease Diagnosis,  Gallbladder is a sympton of deficient Choline. Eggs and red meat are the primary source..Choline makes up a majority of the bile salts.  The bile gets thick, doesn't get enough into intestine to digest fats well.  Can eventually back up into gallbladder, cause gallstones.  Without bile, bowel movements can become hard. Try to avoid all processed foods while you are healing, The gluten-free foods are not fortified with vitamins and use various ingredients to mimic fat that bothers many Celiacs.  Choose vegatables with low omega 6.  Optimum omega 6 to omega 3 ratio is less than 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Grass fed milk is 1:1.   Commercial Dairies milk is 5:1.  They feed wheat, rye and barley Gluten as part of the food mix.

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.
