A person with lactose intolerance lacks an enzyme that is needed to digest milk sugar. When the person eats milk products, symptoms such as gas, bloating, and abdominal pain may occur.

That all fits. BAH. More questions is all I ever find. :(

After 11 months gluten-free my dh developed a lactose intolerance.We finally figured it out after he had been eating ice cream.About 1 hr after he was doubled up with the cramps-diarrhea/sweats,exhausted after.He also gets a pounding headache that usually lasts till the next day(no amount of pain killers seem to shift a 'lactose induced headache).

He seems to be okay with butter ,cheese and yoghurt though.

Ina weird way the lactose problem was easy to decipher,whereas my dh doesn't react to being 'glutened'-impossible to know if he's been glutened.!

Good luck!

Vincent-- Are you trying to figure out if you have a casein intolerance or if you are lactose intolerant? You could try taking a lactaid pill with milk next time and if it helps you, perhaps its lactose intol...if it doesn't, than maybe its a more serious or casein intol. Just and idea...

Gosh I guess it could be Dietary Fructose Intolerance (Open Original Shared Link)

What are the symptoms of fructose malabsorption and fructose intolerance?

For both: Gastro-intestinal distress: flatulence, bloating, diarrhea, fatigue, low iron or other nutrient deficiency.

In Fructose Malabsorption there is clinical evidence associating it with mood disturbances and depression.

Sugar cravings are strongly associated with Fructose sensitivity.

The symptoms of Fructose sensitivity are very similar to Lactose Intolerance so they can be misdiagnosed. Long term effects of malabsorption are anaemia; poor skin, nails and hair; general ill health and even osteoporosis.

That fits better then latose I think cuase of the Anaemia.... :(

Bloating, gas, stomach pain, and the like are all symptoms of problems with dairy. It's important to figure out - as was mentioned - if it's lactose or casein. The easiest way is to first try having a glass of milk (nothing else that morning) and take Lactaid immediately before drinking it (or use Lactaid milk). If that *does* cause symptoms, try eliminating milk entirely for at least a week, then try the experiment again. If it does *not* cause symptoms, it's almost certainly due to lactose, and the lactaid may be the answer you need.

If lactaid doesn't work for you, then you are most likely casein intolerant. I kind of figured that I am caseain intolerant since lactaid never seemed to work for me. I would take the highest dose of lactaid and only have a very small amount of dairy and I would still get sick. I just avoid dairy all together except for small amounts of lactose in medicine.

Okay I got lactate (sp?) stuff, the real full brand name rip off price verison, just to be sure. I think tommorow I am not gonna eat ANY dairy (Had cheeseburgers sans bun just now LOL) See if I start feeling better. If so then I will drink some milk and see what happens. If it goes bad, I will wiat till it passes then try the lactate sutffs.

If you want to be efficient about the testing, you want to test one variable at a time - since you can't easily test lactose without getting casein, you test lactose first, so it won't really tell you much (if you react) if you do dairy without the Lactaid before doing it with the Lactaid. It's a way to go, of course, it just means at least one additional test. ;-)

Also, give your system more than a day between tests. I'd say at least four days, but a week would be better. And don't add new foods that you don't usually have in it's place, or you'll be changing too many variables for a controlled test.

I didn't know that you were trying to determine if there was a fructose problem as well. I'd deal with that one separately, and first. Alternatively, you could try plain yogurt (live cultures) or kefir, which should have all the lactose brocken down. (Or see if you can find a formulation of lactase that does not have fructose in it.)

Yep, if it's casein, you must avoid *all* forms of dairy. It's another label hunting adventure! :blink: (I think dairy is harder than gluten, but that's my opinion.)

I too have problems with lactose intolerance, in fact I think I am suffering a severe attack today. I have been studying hard for finals and I thought I would treat myself to a gluten-free pizza (I usually make my own meals but a gluten-free store opened just down the road) well I bought the pizza and I was so focused on my studying that I forgot to take my lactaid pills. I remembered about an hour later when I started with a little gas. It wasn't too bad so I was thinking that maybe my intestines were healing and my lactose problem was starting to go away.

WRONG :o

For some reason it was delayed-I woke up this morning with the whole range of symptoms. It seems to come in waves and has been really bad at times. I did just eat some plain yogurt that I added xtra digestive enzymes to. the pain got worse for a while and I had to fight to keep from vomiting but now it seems to be helping-a little. Hopefully I will be better tomorrow, Finals start tuesday and I still have alot to study. but it's kinda hard to concentrate now.

Oh, I don't know if anyone else has this symptom but I find that I usually get EXTREME thirst from lactose. It used to be right after I ate or drank it but last night I woke up in the middle of the night and had to chug 2 large glasses of water-and was still thirsty.

For me, I get symptoms (headache, stomach ache, irritability) two hours after the dairy, and it lasts two or three days. It's similar to my gluten response in some ways, though shorter.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      I think, after reading this, that you areso traumatized by not being able yo understand what your medical advisors have been  what medical conditions are that you would like to find a group of people who also feel traumatized who would agree with you and also support you. You are on a crusade much as the way the US Cabinet  official, the Health Director of our nation is in trying to change what he considers outdated and incorrect health advisories. He does not have the education, background or experience to be in the position he occupies and is not making beneficial decisions. That man suffered a terrible trauma early in his life when his father was assonated. We see now how he developed and worked himself into a powerful position.  Unless you are willing to take some advice or  are willing to use a few of the known methods of starting on a path to better health then not many of us on this Celiac Forum will be able to join you in a continuing series of complaints about medical advisors.    I am almost 90 years old. I am strictly gluten free. I use 2 herbs to help me stay as clear minded as possible. You are not wrong in complaining about medical practitioners. You might be more effective with a clearer mind, less anger and a more comfortable life if you would just try some of the suggestions offered by our fellow celiac volunteers.

      Thus has got to STOP , medical bit believing us! I literally went through 31 years thinking it was just a food allergy as its downplayed by medical if THEY weren't the ones who diagnosed us! Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.
