I have been reading everything I can get a hold of since being newly diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Is whey ok to eat or not? Some websites list it as not being ok and others list it as being ok.

Whey is a dairy product and is gluten-free. It is the liquid left over after milk is coagulated, as in the making of cheese.

It contains casein, so if you are avoiding casein avoid whey.

There seems to be a considerable percentage of Celiacs who cannot tolerate dairy, so I guess that's what you're reading. My personal opinion is that, given this statistic, the complexity of casein, and the common issues with lactose, it's probably better to avoid it. And I think this is especially true during the initial healing stages. Some are able to tolerate dairy once sufficient healing has taken place. Others are not.

If you try eating a dairy product and it bothers you, then stop eating it. If it doesn't bother you, then it is only a matter of your choice.

sat on her tuffet

eating her curds and whey!

Think cottage cheese..... If you're not dairy allergic or lactose intolerant it's fine. We have three celiacs in our house. Only one, me, who is dairy allergic.

The one that took me awhile was cellulose. If it says cellulose in the ingredients I do some research before buying it now.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      No, Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD. I take both of these and a B Complex.

      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD. You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD. You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate). A magnesium glycinate is fine, too. Doctor's Best is a good brand. Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect. Be sure...

How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Glutened

      By Oliverg · Posted

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks
