Soy does not have gluten in it. A product made with soy may also have gluten added as well as many other ingredients. For example, most soy sauce has wheat in it.

There are quite a few people on here with issues with soy that isn't gluten related.

Here's a link I found interesting. It seems to be first speaking about milk products but then includes soy in the mix. My brain's reaction to soy is the same as gluten, lightheadedness within 10 minutes. Possible this explains why?

Soy is evil :ph34r:

My reaction to soy is mostly neurological( vertigo ,ringing in my ear,balance issues ect.....) but some digestive ( constipation ect..) issues as well.

I have been told I have gluten ataxia but I feel strongly that soy effects my ataxia as strongly if not more so than gluten .

I react to soy as strongly as I do gluten but in different ways

I think, and I could be wrong, but I think our autoimmune system went haywire, then went hyperactive. When we remove gluten, things get better for awhile, but our warrior cells got poised and ready to fight anything resembling the old foe. Soy and dairy protein are not all that unsimilar to the wheat protein, corn protein is close too. Some other grains might be similar as well.

I successfully reintroduced all of the aforementioned proteins (won't do soy or quinoa though, a personal choice) several months after going gluten-free. Good luck to you, know your frustration, and wish there was an easy answer.

Many people react badly to soy. It doesn't contain gluten, but is one of the most common allergen foods.

I used to get digestive upset with soy. My reaction has gotten much worse since going gluten-free. I now get neurological issues from it too. I avoid it at all costs!

It's tricky too..it's in SO many things, especially salad dressings, chocolate, and vitamin supplements. :o

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
