Uh Oh! Dairy Intolerance?

From reading many posts on this site I have become a little more educated on the possibilities of gluten and dairy intolerance.

I never, ever thought I was dairy intolerant, but just ate ice cream (gluten free) and about 20 minutes later had "D" (which could finally be my miralax working...) but also got a horrible sore throat.

I've suffered from chronic constipation for about 3 years and have read on here that many of you who have also had constipation say that it can be due to dairy....

Also, I've been gluten free for 4 weeks....

So what are the other symptoms? Anyone think this sore throat has anything to do with it?

Oh- and are they the same thing?? lactose/dairy intolerance? (Sorry if that's a dumb question!!)

There are two things you can react to in dairy, lactose and the milk proteins. Lactose intolerance gives you the D because undigested lactose passes through your intestine carrying lots of water with it. If you have bacteria that digest the lactose you'll also get bloated and gassy.

The protein reaction is allergy or intolerance, and allergies can cause sore throats. Also fast D is sometimes allergic. In gluten-sensitive folks the problem tends to be cross-reaction to casein, the major milk protein. It's also possible to be allergic to whey.

I don't know if you saw my post about dairy but I am beginning to think I'm allergic and not intolerant. I've tried lactose-free and I have the same symptoms, I think I'm reacting to casein and whey. Over a week ago I ate some goat cheese and had severe diarrhea with lots of blood and clots. I still feel sick nearly 10 days later. Severe heartburn, sore throats, coughing, etc. Just crappy feeling, stomachaches.

I hope you figure it out. No more dairy for me. It's been months since I had a sliver to try and I wanted to see if I've gotten better but nope.

Goodluck.

The protein reaction is allergy or intolerance,

Question: I read here that a lot of people are able to have some or all dairy back after a period of healing on the diet. Does this go only for those with lactose intolerance? Or is it possible, even with a verrry sensitive casein intolerance? I know mine is casein because I had a horrible reaction to a capsule prescribed to me by my doctor. The only questionable ingredient was indeed casein. :angry: So, any insight as to whether I should hold out hope of ever getting my beloved dairy back? ;) FWIW, my skin allergy test for dairy was negative.

I was wondering the same thing. I can't tolerate whey at all. Not even whey isolate. Which is sad because because the better protein shakes have whey in them.

I was thinking some Celiacs can bring dairy back once their intestines heal because the villi would be functioning properly to release lactase? But, that wouldn't help any of use who can't tolerate whey or casein. *tears*

There is hope. I returned to eating dairy after my intestine healed and I was sensitive to all dairy, not just lactose. Casein can cross-react with the gliadin antibodies. There is also an idea of "leaky gut" where the damaged intestinal epithelium lets fragments of proteins into the bloodstream where you can react to them. It's not well substantiated but it would explain why I went from being soy, dairy, and shellfish intolerant to being able to eat anything but gluten in about none months of healing.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to...

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By trents · Posted

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.
