Hi All:

I am trying to track down food allergies/intolerances beyond Celiac, and have some very basic, rookie questions.

When people say they have soy allergies/intolerance that means

Soy refers to any product derived from the soy plant, not just whole beans. Soybeans are processed into many forms.

David, if you believe you have a problem with soy, you should avoid anything that has that word in the label; also hydrolysed vegetable protein which is usually soy. Edamame beans are fresh soy beans, soya lecithin is also soy, but just to confuse matters some soy intolerant people can eat this; I can't. It is used as an emulsifier in most chocolate. :(

Intolerances can manifest themselves in a variety of ways; soy makes me break out in a red itchy rash. Other people have gastro symptoms with it.

Good luck on your detective work :)

      TTG IgA and IGA elevated mildy

      By thejayland10 · Posted

      thank you, i have been doing that the last few weeks and will continue to do so. I had not had my ttg iga checked since I was diagnosed 14 yrs ago so I am not sure if they ever dropped below the 15-20 range.    all my other labs are completely normal but I am concerned that this may be signs of refractor celiac or something else since I'm so careful with gluten-free diet

      Around 9% of celiacs cannot tolerate any oats, even gluten-free oats. It might be worth eliminating them for a few months, then get re-tested.

      I only eat certifed gluten-free products but a lot of which are processed. Could there be trace gluten in those or is that very unlikely?

      For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes (you may want to avoid oats):
