Gf, Dairy And Soy Free Foods For Picky Toddler?


kimber

Recommended Posts

Hi

My 21mnth old ds had b/w and a stool culture and all came back fine but I believe he may at the least be wheat intolerant based on his symptoms after eating wheat

So, I decided to try him gluten-free for a few weeks to see if we notice a difference

Oh, his dad has ever been tested but let's just say he can't eat pasta w/ out living in the bathroom but does fine with everything else and is not uncomfy or does not have any weight issues

So, it's day 4 and things are going well but because my son is also dairy/soy free I feel like he is hardly eating

Anyone have some favs that are dairy, soy, gluten-free?

I picked up some enjoy life rice bread..it was frozen..can anyone tell me how you normally defrost it or how long it is good for on the counter?

Thanks, my toddler is a typical toddler and very picky as far as eating any veggies, but he does well w/ fruits

Is oatmeal a yes/no?

For now he is living on

hamburger/chicken/turkey

some fruit-grapes, watermellon, banana, pears

rice pasta and rice bread

gluten-free cereal-envirokidz, and gluten-free cookies, rice chex

Thanks, Kim

You can make all sorts of things with Chebe, including hot pockes, corn dogs, pizza sticks... Just use rice milk or water and don't add the cheese.

Most of Kinnikinnick's products are soy free and they hace many dairy, casein free products as well. Good luck.

Have you tried potato?? White rice?? My son is dairy, soy, wheat, eggs, beef etc...it does get tricky, he is only 1. He likes sweet potato as well. You can make fries out of them too. All Natural Alexia brand french fries are gluten free as well, they have Yukon Gold julienne fries with sea salt, and some others that have different flavoring in them. It is amazing how much soy is in so many snacks. My son like I said is still young so he isn't into the big kids snacks yet, but I do think that fritos are ok as a junkie type treat, I'm pretty sure soy free. I go to www.peapod.com and I can look at all the items and see what is in them before going to the store so it saves a lot of time standing around in the isle reading labels. What about going to that site www.glutenfreemall.com and you can select the things that he is allergic to and it will tell you the items you can buy or give you ideas anyways.

I also found that Fleishmans' Light Margarine is the only type he can have, it is dairy and soy free.

Rice Krispee treats :D

Good Luck

Thanks for your response

Yup, Zach loves potatoes...I buy him WF brand FF and tator totts..I assume they are ok?

I checked out this site for foods, which was a big help but just looking for some other ideas

Oh and yes Zahc loves krispie treats!

Thanks again, Kim

I see you already enjoylife breads--but I like their cookies and bars too. Also, there is Namaste--they make a slew of baking products--good brownies/blondies. All their products are free from wheat, gluten, corn, soy, potato, dairy or nuts.

Ck them out here: Open Original Shared Link I can buy there mixes in some stores too...

PS-Have you tried alexia fries? They are soo good. I buy them in my healthfood store and Meijer/Marsh grocery. See here: Open Original Shared Link

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Vitamin D status in the UK is even worse than the US.  vitamin D is essential for fighting bone loss and dental health and resistance to infection.  Mental health and depression can also be affected by vitamin D deficiency.  Perhaps low D is the reason that some suffer from multiple autoimmune diseases.  In studies, low D is a factor in almost all of the autoimmune diseases that it has been studied in. Even while searching for your diagnosis, testing your 25(OH)D status and improving it my help your general wellness. Vitamin D Deficiency Affects 60% in Britain: How to Fix It?

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive.   I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy?   Thanks for any help

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
