Diary Free Probiotic

Can you guys tell me the names of any probiotics you use that are Gluten-free Casein-free, please? I believe many are cultured in dairy. I'm hoping to find one that's not crazy expensive. Chewable ones available for children are welcome too. I've been using Primadophilus for years, but stopped using it when I began to eliminate casein.

Ack! Dairy not Diary. I hate typos.

Anyone?

I use Jamieson but I believe it is a Canadian product. I just started it a few days ago and am afraid it is making me quite ill. Hopefully this will pass!

That one says it has come into contact with dairy and soy :(

Oh, sorry! For some reason I thought it was DF and SF. I must have been thinking about another of my Jamieson supplements.

This must make it extra tough and frustrating for you!

I still need to find one. I was using one that said it was non-dairy but I could not verify if it was gluten free. It was making me feel off so I stopped using it. I need to get another one I guess and try again. I just really don't want to mess up my digestive system anymore. I've been trying to eat natural probiotics like coocnut milk kefir and pickles but I'm finding that these foods make me extremely gassy. Can anyone tell me if it's normal to have gas and bloating from probiotics? will it eventually go away or is this a sign that I have really messed up gut flora?

We are huge fans of Custom Probiotics. They gave us a sample that lasted about a month. We were sold! They are pricy up front but they work out to about $10/month.

DS is gluten-free, dairy, egg, soy, fish, shell fish and a few others free.

Jarrow Formulas makes an allergen-free probiotic. They're well-trusted and high-quality. Fairly common so shouldn't be hard to find.

My son just started taking Florajen4Kids. It's gluten, soy and dairy free. It does say on the back "may contain trace amounts of digested casein or carbohydrated derived from corn. I don't have to avoid casein so i really don't know much about it to know if there are different types and if this would work for you or not.

Most of them have trace amounts of dairy, which is what I'm trying to avoid. I think the Jarrow will work for me. Just need to find a children's chewable now.

Look into Country Life's Power-Dophilus, link below. I've used this and Dr Ohira's probiotics and honestly prefer Country Lifes. It's completely allergen free, dairy free as well as I have issues with dairy and soy myself. Last but not least, it is very effective. I've had considerable healing thanks to probiotics, especially in the food allergy area. It reduces symptoms greatly ;]

Best of luck!

      Just wanted to add that checking B12 and Vitamin D only is not going to give an accurate picture of vitamin deficiencies.   B12 Cobalamine needs the seven other B vitamins to work properly.   You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before the B12 blood level changes to show deficiency.  You can have "normal" B12, but have deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine and Niacin, for which there are no accurate tests. Take a B Complex supplement with all the B vitamins.  Take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  Thiamine Mononitrate found in most vitamin supplements is not easy for the body to utilize.  What makes thiamine mononitrate not break down on the shelf also makes it hard for the body to absorb and utilize.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 deficiency symptoms include anxiety, depression and irritability.  The brain uses more Thiamine than other organs.  Take the B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and look for health improvements in the following weeks.

      Hello, @rei.b, Ehlers Danlos syndrome and Celiac Disease can occur together in genetically predisposed individuals.  Losing ones gallbladder is common with celiac disease. I'm glad Naltrexone is helping with your pain.  Naltrexone is known to suppress tTg IgA and tTg IgG production, so it's not surprising that only your DGP IgG and DGP IgA are high.   Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol diet designed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself?  The AIP diet helps lower inflammation and promotes intestinal healing.   The AIP diet is a Paleo diet that eliminates foods that can cause intestinal inflammation until you heal on the inside, then more foods can be added back in.  The low histamine AIP diet will help reduce inflammation further.   Histamine is released as part of the immune response in celiac disease.  Foods also contain various amounts of histamine or provoke histamine release.  Lowering the amount of histamine from foods helps.  The body, with help from B vitamins, can clear histamine, but if more histamine is consumed than can be cleared, you can stay in an inflammatory state for a long time. Cutting out high histamine foods is beneficial.  Omit night shades which contain alkaloids that add to leaky gut syndrome found with celiac disease.  Night shades include tomatoes, peppers including bell peppers, potatoes and eggplants.  Processed foods like sausages and gluten-free processed products are high in histamines.  All Grains are removed from the diet because they are inflammatory and provoke histamine release. Blood tests for deficiencies in B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before blood levels show a deficiency.  Blood levels do not accurately measure the quantity of B vitamins stored inside the cells where they are utilized.  The brain will order stored vitamins to be released from organs into the blood stream to keep the brain and heart supplied while deficiency occurs inside organs, like the gallbladder.  Gall bladder dysfunction is caused by a deficiency in Thiamine Vitamin B 1 and other B vitamins.   The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea and constipation, and the malabsorption and inflammation that occurs with celiac disease.  Because they are water soluble, the body can easily excrete any excess B vitamins in urine.  The best way to see if you are deficient is to take a B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and look for health improvements in the following weeks.  Most B Complex supplements contain Thiamine Mononitrate which is not bioavailable.  The body has a difficult time utilizing thiamine mononitrate because it doesn't break down easily.  Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Remember your intestines are in a damaged, permeable state.  Treat them tenderly, like you would a baby until they heal.  You wouldn't feed a baby spicy bell peppers and hard to digest corn and nuts.  Change your diet so your intestines can heal.   I use a combination of B12 Cobalamine, B 6 Pyridoxine, and B1 Benfotiamine for pain.  These three B vitamins have analgesic properties.  They relieve pain better than other otc pain relievers.

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.
