What Is Wrong With Corn, Soy, Dairy, Legumes...?

After reading a lot of the topics here, I have noticed a lot of people saying they have gone off, or suggesting others go off, corn, soy, dairy, and legumes...

Dairy I can understand because of lactose intolerance, but it seems even people who are not intolerant are giving it up. And why corn, soy, and legumes..?

I actually thought legumes (isn't that like lentils?) were supposed to be very good for you...?

All the things you mention can be very good for you - if you are not intolerant of them, that is. Many of us do develop other food intolerances, particularly before we are able to heal our leaky guts (caused by gluten) which let larger particles of other food protein into the blood than would normally pass through the intestinal barrier.

Dairy is pasteurized thus potentially causing problems for many. When I switched to raw dairy I no longer had problems. That's just me though. I have good cows and a good farmer. Not saying that will be the case for everyone. It is expensive to get raw dairy but worth it for me. It has helped tremendously.

Corn and soy are so heavily GMO now that there are many potential problems there as well. Soy is estrogenic and there are implications for difficulty there as well. It is the GMO component that is of most concern to me. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 80% of all con and in excess of 92% of soy in this country are GMO. This allows for the application of up to 86% more herbicide by farmers and is residual in the product. This can effect the stomach and lining of the intestines.. already a problem for those if us with celiac. Gut permeability issues also heighten this as a problem.

Legumes are high in lectins and those with gut permeability issues want to decrease gut permeability thus the need to avoid legumes.

From personal experience I can say that all grains cause problems for me. Cutting them all out was a necessary step to my regaining a considerable amount of good health and gut function. It also makes compliance to gluten-free much easier.

All, of course, IMHO.

      Toddler recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and need help understanding coeliac screening test results

      By mytype1diabetes · Posted

      Thanks for this Wends and appreciate your insights! I'm not sure what you mean by "Your toddler is unlikely igA deficient with a titer of 22, as a positive test." ? I had a look at Dr Bernstein's work and we've definitely noticed that on lower carb days her blood glucose levels are much easier to manage. Our nutritionist advised against a low carb diet for toddlers as they said young children, unlike adults, rely on carbs for their growth and development. What's your view on this? Regarding malabsorption - it's so hard to know what's "normal". My daughter's poos have always been on the softer side as she's breastfed and we eat very healthily. I've booked an appointment with our GP and...

      Toddler recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and need help understanding coeliac screening test results

      By mytype1diabetes · Posted

      Thank you all for your kind wishes, it means so much. The information you've all shared has been so useful. We have a great diabetes team and trust the consultants decision to wait a few months to repeat the blood test. We also don't want to put her through any more tests than she needs as it's so tough on her and us! It feels unbearable waiting when she has some unexplained symptoms and as her mum I want to make sure we're doing everything we can to keep her healthy. That's interesting re: iron levels. I hadn't thought about that but I'm pretty sure this would've been checked as she was in hospital with DKA and they did lots of tests. I have requested a copy of her results.

      Pepsid alternative

      It seems crazy to me that even when you call a manufacturer they can't, in this day and age, answer the simple question about what exactly is in their product!!

      Pepsid alternative

      By milana · Posted

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.
