Soy Intolerance- Will It Ever Go Away?


GFMM88

I am gluten and casein free. Soy bothers me, but nowhere near as much as gluten and casein. It only causes stomach upset, rather than the brain fog and more systemic reactions I get from the other two. I seem to tolerate soy lecithin and soybean oil (which I am told do not contain the protein found in soy). It would be nice if my soy intolerance was temporary. Has anyone initially had a problem with the protein in soy, and then been able to tolerate it after a year or more on the strict gluten free diet? Thanks.

sorry to say that for me Soy (soya) was off limits and still is. I even had some in error a week or so back in a gluten free chocolate covered biscuit (I should have checked!). It certainly didn't agree with me!

I'm having problems at the moment with potential other foods which is an on going process but for me. Anyway I find if something is ruled out of my diet it stays out and the best thing to do is (unfortunately) to live with it.

Unfortunately, I do not think you ever outgrow a soy intolerance. I have an intolerance to soy, and so does my dad (still). So, odds are we will always have to remain soy free. Good news though, I have read many new articles preaching that the harm of consuming soy is far greater than it's benefits. Soy is actually pretty bad for your health...So, good news for us :)

I have been able to add milk back in but not soy. I fortunately can tolerate the lecithin but not the flour or oil. Everyone is different and you can perhaps try and add it back in after you are well healed. Your body will let you know.

      i used to get cold sores frequently before I went gluten free.  Then I only got them when stressed.  Then I cured my gut dysbiosis, and haven't had one in 20 years.

      To me, this bread is pretty special. The first time I tried adapting it I used a commercial gluten-free flour blend and it was good, but when I experimented using individual flours I tried the almond flour and it took it from good to special. I add walnuts or pecans to a lot of my desert bread recipes but I haven't tried nuts with this one. I would guess that adding either of them would result in the whole being less than the sum of the parts because the almond and other nut flavors would be competing. I wouldn't want to add almonds because of the texture. But you never know until you try. Have not tried cinnamon in this recipe. I imagine it would work. As I modified this recipe from the original, I reduced the sugar. The posted recipe is what I currently use. You are right that the pears bring a little sweetness to it.

      It's kind of funny that before my celiac diagnosis I did a lot more "functional eating" where I just needed a meal and wasn't so worried about how interesting/delicious it was, just needed to eat something. After my diagnosis I've become a dedicated cook and I am very tuned into flavor and novelty. In answer to your question, I find the recipe very forgiving for trying add-ins. I've supplemented the greens with green onions, bell pepper (any color), celery leaves and stalks, and fresh parsley. Sometimes I throw in pepitas (pumpkin seeds), craisins, walnuts and/or sunflower seeds. One thing I tried that didn't really work was currants. I think that maybe it's because they are too small and too sweet. I haven't experimented with cheeses beyond the 2 in the recipe. I would guess that grated hard cheeses would work, medium hard cheeses (like swiss or cheddar) might work, and soft cheeses would not.

      That actually sounds really nice. Pear bread feels like one of those things that would be soft and a little sweet without being too heavy. I like the idea of using fruit like that instead of just relying on sugar. It probably makes it feel more fresh and homemade. Have you tried adding anything like cinnamon or nuts to it, or do you keep it simple?

      That actually sounds really good, I wouldn’t have thought to mix sorghum with kale but it makes sense. The roasted cherry tomatoes probably bring a nice bit of sweetness to balance everything out. I’ve been trying to find more simple gluten-free meals that don’t feel boring, and this feels like something you could make ahead and just keep eating through the week. Did you add anything else to it, like nuts or cheese, or keep it pretty simple?
