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!

organicmama Contributor

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.

organicmama Contributor

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!

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms.  My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea.  But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you could share what other symptoms you are having?
