Ok, so as it stands

Known issues with

Soy

Gluten (obv)

Lactose

and the worst one is Fructose Malabsorbtion (do you know how many delicious thing's that takes off the table)

Is there, by any chance, a book or online guide to recipes for such an intolerant person, Perhaps I'm just healing.

However I do need to stay Monk style for a while, when I eat badness it isn't just awe dayum for a night It get's me for like 2 days and the third being iffy.

Have you actually been tested ? You can sub rice milk, almond milk,vance's dairy free, better than milk for any dairy in recipes. There are many recipes on this

site plus you can google & you will find other sites that have gluten-free, df, cf....... all articial sweetners make me sick plus most of them are BAD for your intestinal tract anyway. I do not do soy either....the non-gluten free people at my house love vanilla almond breeze for the morning cereal....

Tested, Negative, Only for celiac disease and that was positive and high first try.

Gastro app is on march 1st, screw going back on gluten the difference was obvious enough.

As for Fructose malabsorbtion and soy, those are based off how I felt after having things like soybean oil or soy lecathin or however that's spelt, and I had a small bowl of fruit one night, and the big bad D the next day, and my stomach wasn't to happy, then similar weird feelings from a bowl of jello... I mean really if jello does it that's sensitive =/

um from what I read It seems like intolerance testing is only at city hospitals I doubt I can here (I live in the sticks) but I do plan on trying to get tested, ugh and I know how you feel, when my cousins come down they GORGE themselfs on candy and chocolate and *tear* mint icecream..well ok I made that up I just have it sit there and look at the ice cream..got it at xmas >_> pre diagnoses oh the irony, got a HUGE pile of xmas candy all my favs cannot have any -.-

someone once told me to concentrate on what I CAN eat not what I cant.

Do you have a SAFE foods list?? (Foods that you know are safe for you to eat)

For me ,,right now the safest way for me to eat is very very plain simple meals

I dont know of a book or recipe site that would be helpful but I will watch this thread HOPING someone could suggest one

For fructose malabsorption, this is a list of safe foods, in a nice chart format:

Open Original Shared Link

However, some other possibilities?

- What fruit did you eat when you got D? Apples, pears, and most citrus have wax coatings that are made from shellac wax, which has either soy or casein added to it! (when you cut into the citrus, if you are REALLY sensitive, the knife will pick up a little of what's on the peel and carry it into the fruit as you cut in.) So, the fruit could actually be soy, too! I believe there are some other fruits and veggies that might use shellac, but there are other waxes, too, and I only know the exact one for the above three. I know that some sprays for produce, preservative, fertilizers and such have gluten cc - I wonder how many have soy cc, too? If you react to the soy oil, I would think you may be very sensitive.

- It might be worth your while trying to find some sites for people with soy allergies - they tend to be really good about showing you hidden sources of soy, ya know? Although I'd go for the forums/personal blogs. They are a LOT more motivated due to personal interest. The doctor sites tend to be pretty, well, unaware about the REALLY hidden soy. For example, I found this, just on the first try (not so helpful, but just basic)

"Soy Allergy: Avoid These Ingredients

* edamame

* miso

* mono-diglyceride

* natto (Japanese fermented soybeans)

* tofu (soybean curds)

* okara (soy pulp)

* soya, soja, soybean, soyabean

* soy protein (isolate / concentrate)

* tempeh

* TSF (textured soy flour)

* TSP (textured soy protein)

* TVP (textured vegetable protein)*

* yuba (tofu skin)

* Textured vegetable protein can come from different vegetable sources, including soy.

You may also see the words "soy lecithin" on a label. Soy lecithin is a soy fat, not protein, and is often tolerated by those allergic to the soy protein. However, in some

circumstances, very sensitive individuals can react to it."

(from Open Original Shared Link)

- also, something to look out for is there is a lot of fraud going on with olive oil right now, where cheap soy oil is being substituted with a dye, instead. If you react to an olive oil, you may want to assume soy and try another one, at first.

- for jello - it doesn't have fructose, but sucrose, so that'd be sugar cane. However, many celiacs have more trouble with dyes and preservatives, so that might be more of the issue, ya know? Or you have trouble with fructose and sucrose, both.

Good luck to you!

Sadly I don't, that is why I turned to here, but I guess I will have to just "bea tuffy" and deal with it, all I eat atm is like plain chicken, plain roast beef, and canned chicken >_> I've been eating mccains shoestring, they seem to be ok, but I'm dealing with some sort of stomach issue so often lately I really can't tell =/

Mom decided to make toffy -.- and I decided to try it, was fine till the next day and the day after -.-

I really don't know how people deal with this it's driving me nuts.

90% of my meals consist of poultry and veggies. At this point I'm quite happy with it.

Have you looked at the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SPD)? Many people on this site follow it. Open Original Shared Link

      I had the same thing happen to me at around your age, and to this day it's the most painful experience I've ever had. For me it was the right side of my head, above my ear, running from my nerves in my neck. For years before my outbreak I felt a tingling sensation shooting along the exact nerves that ended up exactly where the shingles blisters appeared. I highly recommend the two shot shingles vaccine as soon as your turn 50--I did this because I started to get the same tingling sensations in the same area, and after the vaccines I've never felt that again.  As you likely know, shingles is caused by chicken pox, which was once though of as one of those harmless childhood viruses that everyone should catch in the wild--little did they know that it can stay in your nervous system for your entire life, and cause major issues as you age.

      Thanks for the info. I recently moved to CA from Wyoming and in that western region the Costco and Sam's /Walmart Brands have many nuts and more products that are labeled gluten free. I was told it's because those products are packaged and processed  in different  plants. Some plants can be labeled  gluten free because the plant does not also package gluten products and they know that for example the trucks, containers equipment are not used to handle wheat, barely or Rye. The Walmart butter in the western region says gluten free but not here. Most of The Kirkland and Members Mark brands in CA say they are from Vietnam. That's not the case in Wyoming and Colorado. I've spoken to customer service at the stores here in California. They were not helpful. I check labels every time I go to the store. The stores where I am are a Sh*tshow. The Magalopoly grocery chain Vons/Safeway/Albertsons, etc. are the same. Fishers and Planters brands no longer say gluten free. It could be regional. There are nuts with sugar coatings and fruit and nut mixes at the big chains that are labeled gluten free but I don't want the fruit or sugar.  It's so difficult I am considering moving again. I thought it would be easier to find safe food in a more populated area. It's actually worse.  I was undiagnosed for most of my life but not because I didn't try to figure it out. So I have had all the complications possible. I don't have any spare organs left.  No a little gluten will hurt you. The autoimmune process continues to destroy your organs though you may not feel it. If you are getting a little all the time and as much as we try we probably all are and so the damage is happening. Now the FDA has pretty much abandoned celiacs. There are no requirements for labeling for common allergens on medications. All the generic drugs made outside the US are not regulated for common allergens and the FDA is taking the last gluten free porcine Thyroid med, NP Thyroid, off the market in 2026. I was being glutened by a generic levothyroxin. The insurance wouldn't pay for the gluten free brand any longer because the FDA took them all off their approved formulary. So now I am paying $147 out of pocket for NP Thyroid but shortly I will have no safe choice. Other people with allergies should be aware that these foreign generic pharmaceutical producers are using ground shellfish shell as pill coatings and anti-desicants. The FDA knows this but  now just waits for consumers to complain or die. The take over of Wholefoods by Amazon destroyed a very reliable source of good high quality food for people with allergies and for people who wanted good reliably organic food. Bezos thought  he could make a fortune off people who were paying alot for organic and allergen free food by substituting cheap brands from Thailand. He didn't understand who the customers were who were willing to pay more for that food and why. I went from spending hundreds to nothing because Bezo removed every single trusted brand that I was buying. Now they are closing Whole foods stores across the country. In CA, Mill Valley store (closed July 2025) and the National Blvd. store in West Los Angeles (closed October 2025). The Cupertino store will close.  In recent years I have learned to be careful and trust no one. I have been deleberately glutened in a restaurant that was my favorite (a new employee). The Chef owner was not in the kitchen that night. I've had  a metal scouring pad cut up over my food.The chain offered gluten free dishes but it only takes one crazy who thinks you're a problem as a food fadist. Good thing I always look. Good thing they didn't do that to food going to a child with a busy mom.  I give big tips and apologize for having to ask in restaurants but mental illness seem to be rampant. I've learn the hard way.          I don't buy any processed food that doesn't say gluten free.  I am a life long Catholic. I worked for the Church while at college. I don't go to Church anymore because the men at the top decided Jesus is gluten. The special hosts are gluten less not gluten free. No I can't drink wine after people with gluten in their mouth and a variety of deadly germs. I have been abandoned and excluded by my Church/Family.  Having nearly died several times, safe food is paramount. If your immune system collapses as mine did, you get sepsis. It can kill you very quickly. I spent 5 days unconscious and had to have my appendix and gall bladder removed because they were necrotic. I was 25. They didn't figure out I had celiac till I was 53. No one will take the time to tell you what can happen when your immune system gets overwhelmed from its constant fighting the gluten and just stops. It is miserable that our food is processed so carelessly. Our food in many aspects is not safe. And the merging of all the grocery chains has made it far worse. Its a disaster. Krogers also recently purchased Vitacost where I was getting the products I could no longer get at Whole Foods. Kroger is eliminating those products from Vitacost just a Bezos did from WF. I am looking for reliable and certified sources for nuts. I have lived the worst consequences of the disease and being exposed unknowingly and maliciously. Once I was diagnosed I learned way more than anyone should have to about the food industry.  I don't do gray areas. And now I dont eat out except very rarely.  I have not eaten fast food for 30 years before the celiac diagnosis. Gluten aside..... It's not food and it's not safe.  No one has got our backs. Sharing safe food sources is one thing we can do to try to be safe.

      Thank you kindly for your response. I have since gotten the other type of bloods done and am awaiting results.
