Gluten And Soy Allergy


hungryallthetime

Recommended Posts

hungryallthetime Newbie

I have been gluten free for a few years. I'm in college so finding ways to avoid it is very difficult. Avoiding gluten helps drastically with my stomach problems, but I noticed the same things were still happening (gas,cramping,constipation) in addition to a splotchy red rash that broke out on my face, ears and neck, and recently I've been trying to pin point what it is. I have come to the conclusion that it is soy.(still waiting to see a doctor next month and get that confirmed) Learning all the gluten products to avoid took a while to learn and I feel lost trying to figure out what products I can consume that are soy free and gluten free. I know there are many oils, gums, guars etc that are derived but I need more help. Anyone that can help, please do! Until then I suppose I will just be eating plain fruit, vegetables, and meat. Also, does anyone know what tests are done at the doctor to test for soy? Thanks,

Morgan

You can get a skin scratch test, an ELISA test, or you can do a stool test through labs like Enterolab, Diagnos-Techs, etc.

I am also Soy intolerant and get the red hive type rash on my face, especially around my mouth. I avoid all soy protein, vegetable oil (if that's all it says without giving you a source), guar gum (for me, I guess its too related to soy being a legume, it sets me off everytime), and soybean oil. I can use soy lecithin in small amounts such as in chocolate and pam cooking spray but not until just recently, I eliminated ALL soy for 6 months before trying lecithin. Peanuts (also a legume) bother me as well but I'm not saying legumes will bother you. I am okay with peas and green beans. Keeping a food diary is most helpful. I kept one for over 2 years. I know it must be hard for you in college. I went to visit my daughter last weekend at CU Boulder and she showed me the gluten free zone at the dining hall. It was one small salad bar and a very tiny fridge next to it with a 1/2 loaf of gluten-free bread in the fridge and broken tortillas in the freezer...sad!

How common is soy intolerance in celiacs? When I first started researching celiac disease, I thought soy was part of it or contained gluten or something....which is bad for me because I'm also lactose intolerant.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
