Hello,

Where can you be tested for other food intolerances? (dairy, soy, etc). Does your gastroenterologist do this?

Thanks! Dinah

Well, it depends where you are but I think that you would find it hard to find anyone who can test for intolerances. They do not show the same result as allergies, with a histamine response.

Usually it is down to trial and error, finding out what is problematic.

Many of us who have found that dropping gluten did not bring us the desired relief are now following the Specific Carbohydrate diet and that IS working. Check out the SCD thread in this section for more info or the 'breaking the vicious cycle' or 'Pecanbread' websites. It cuts out all the antagonistic complex long-chain carbohydrate foods including soy and corn which are very common reactors and allows the gut to heal. It is having much success where all else has failed.

Regards, Ali.

Diagnos-tech does an saliva test for glute, casein, eggs and soy.

Enterolab does an stool test for gluten casein eggs and soy.

These you can order yourself.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
