I'm a little confused. . My gastro dr said NO Gluten,Wheat,Soy,or Barley. Are these all celiac no no's or is it just gluten. I have noticed in the gluten free mall that some of the foods contain soy in the ingredients. Please help me on these ingredients are any of them or not ?

The three gluten-containing grains are wheat, RYE and barley. Most oats are also cross-contaminated unless they are certified gluten-free oats.

If he mentioned to avoid soy, that is a separate intolerance that many celiacs have. I know I do. Did they test you for soy? Maybe they actually told you wheat, rye and barley.

The gluten is in wheat, rye, and barley. Lots of soy products have gluten in them, though, like most soy sauces. So the doctor may have misspoke, but it's a reminder to check those ingredients lists on everything. It's probably worth a phone call to confirm if soy was tested for separately for some reason.

Thank you Neroli you are probably right because i don't think i'm allergic to soy so it was a reminder that some soy foods have gluten in them.

Do you Know which soys have gluten, or just need to read, read, read ? ha ha Also is soybean the sameas soy? Please don't laugh but i'm just getting a little causious. Debbie

Always read the labels on everything. Some manufacturers change ingredients quite frequently, and their labels should reflect this. A product may be gluten-free one week, but not the next. It just all depends. Getting used to what to avoid is the first step. Sounds like you're headed in the right direction :)

Most soy sauces contain gluten. Those labelled Tamari usually don't, but Read the Label. Soybeans and soybean oil are soy, although some soy intolerants can tolerate the oil. I avoid it. Since I don't do soy, as soon as I see that on the label I read no further so I am no expert on this. The only one I know for sure that contains gluten is soy sauce. I have the problem that many gluten free processed foods contain soy (or potato, or citric acid, or corn) and so I don't eat a lot of processed food. :rolleyes:

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States.   In European countries, different cooking methods and longer  fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides. Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat.  Gluten content can vary according to where the wheat was grown, growing conditions, when harvested, and local preference, so a blend of both hard and soft wheat is used to make a uniform product.   I moved around quite a bit as a child in a military family.  I had different reactions to gluten in different areas of the country every time we moved.  I believe some wheat breeds and blends are able to provoke a worse immune response than others.   Since European soft wheat doesn't contain as much gluten as American wheat, you may try increasing your intake of your soft wheat products.  A minimum of ten grams of gluten is required to get a sufficient immunological response so that the anti-gluten antibodies leave the intestines and enter the bloodstream where they can be measured by the tTg IgA test.  Your whole wheat bread may only have a gram of gluten per slice, so be prepared...

      Severe severe mouth pain

      From my own experience and that of others who have tried to discontinue PPI use, I think your taper down plan is much too aggressive. It took me months of very incremental tapering to get to the point where I felt I was succeeding and even then I had to rely some days on TUMS to squelch flareups. After about a year I felt I had finally won the battle. Rebound is real. If I were you I would aim at cutting back in weekly increments for two weeks at a time rather than daily increments. So, for instance, if you have been taking 2x20mg per day, the first week cut that down to 2x20mg for six days and 1x20 mg for the other day. Do that for two weeks and then cut down to 2x20mg for five days and 1x20 for two days. On the third week, go 20x2 for four days and 20x1 for 3 days. Give yourself a week to adjust for the reduced dosage rather than reducing it more each week. I hope this makes sense.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Talk to your doctor about switching to an antihistamine, and supplementing essential vitamins and minerals.  Dietary changes (low carb/paleo) may be beneficial for you.  Have you talked to a dietician or nutritionist about a nutrient dense gluten free diet?   It's harder to get all the vitamins needed from a gluten free diet.  Gluten containing products are required to be enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals lost in processing.  Gluten free facsimile processed foods are not required to be enriched nor fortified.  So we have to buy our own vitamin supplements.   Glad to be of help.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      I’m pretty sure they do. I have been on myfortic, tacrolimus since 2021 for my liver transplant and added prednisone after kidney transplant.  I’m going to try to cut back omeprazole to 20 mg a day and then after a week try to stop altogether. Thank you for your help.

      A gastroenterologist doing an endoscopy.  Biopsies would be taken to be examined microscopically.  Do your anti-rejection medications cause digestive problems?
