    I have had CC symptoms from Quaker cornmeal.

    I have thought of getting other testing done. I did get tested for egg and yeast by Enterolab. I think they came back as 4 and 7. I went to my PCP last year asking for more allergy testing. She told me it was going to be an IgA blood test. When I got the negative results back I noticed it was an IgE blood test and my insurance didn't cover a bit of it...

    Thanks for the replies. I am glad the general concensus is that the Earth Balance and Coconut Milk are okay because I love those new products. Hopefully I will figure something out from my food diary. It is just frustrating trying to figure everything out, whether it is cross-contamination or another food sensitivity. I will have to keep an eye on the...

    I am suspecting something I added to my diet last fall has a trace amount of cross-contamination. I am super sensitive to gluten, dairy, and soy. My husband is super sensitive to gluten. I am the one that has been having the most issues, so I don't think it is a gluten problem. For those who have to be soy and dairy free, do you have a problem with the...

    My husband and I both get them from being glutened. He gets them the worst. He will get them the size of a pencil eraser on his tonsils (if not bigger).

    There is a good essay on dogtorj.com about this, click on "Estrogens and Food" from the home page. Soy and gluten are also high in estrogens.

    My Aunts hosted a bridal shower for me last year. It was brunch themed food. My sister made a gluten free quiche I could eat, I brought a coffee cake (recipe from Carol Fenster's cookbook....very good!), and they had fresh fruit I could eat. Everything else was just for the guests. It worked out alright. They were able to make what they are used to making...

    You might consider reading some of the articles on dogtorj.com. The left side of the webpage is a list of topics which includes one about epilepsy and how it is related to food sensitivities. From the research I have done, a lot of autoimmune diseases can be linked to food sensitivities, so whether or not your son has Celiac I think this would be a good...

    If you already have the supplement and are feeling brave, you could try it to see if you react. Just make sure other foods in your diet aren't affecting you when you try it. If you haven't bought it yet, I would look for a different one. I am super sensitive to soy. I take a few vitamins now, they are Solgar brand which is good at listing allergens. ...

    Did you get tested for soy sensitivity? My reactions to soy are just as bad if not worse than gluten. I had no idea I had a problem with soy until I got the test.

    I have been using Arrowhead Mills cornmeal and just discovered that they also have a blue corn meal. I think my next corn adventure will be Blue Corn Dogs. I just made them with yellow corn (the day before I discovered the blue corn at Whole Foods).

    In one of the notes under her recipe she says ... "For a change of pace I sometimes use Pamela's Ultimate Baking & Pancake Mix as my flour mix (and leave out the baking soda, powder)." You could try using this if you don't want to mix up your own flours. I have tried some of her recipes and they have all been wonderful!

    For pie crust I use Betty Crocker's recipe with substitutions to make it gluten, dairy, and soy free. I usually use Bob's Red Mill Flour Mix, Spectrum Palm Shortening, and a touch of butter flavoring for the substitutions...next time I might try the new soy free Earthbalance for the shortening. I have also found it takes about twice the amount of cold water...

    I like Kinnikinnick's brown sugar cinnamon waffles. They also have original flavored ones, but I don't like them quite as well. I used to eat the Van's waffles before I found out soy made me sick and I think the Kinnikinnick ones taste better in my opinion.

    My enterolab results were around 14 for cow's milk (casein) and 17 for soy. I tried goats cheese last year and still had the same reaction I get from cow's milk (stuffy nose and fluid in my ears which sometimes turns into an ear infection...I had chronic ear infections as a kid). I read somewhere that goats milk still contains casein, it is just a very...

    Soy makes me feel really terrible too. A soy cross-contamination gives me a headache that can't be phased by taking excedrine migraine. It also gives me symptoms of a urinary tract infection sometimes turning into one and other times not. I have also figured out that I get UTI sensations from acidic juices like orange, grapefruit and cranberry. For a...

    My husband thinks New Grist made by Lakefront Brewery is the best of the gluten free beers. We have been able to special order it from the liquor store.

    I really like Carol Fenster's recipe too! I make it diary free using rice milk or almond milk adding 1 Tbsp of cider vinegar per cup as recommended in her cookbook "Gluten Free, Quick & Easy". I haven't had problems with the batter getting thick after sitting, but maybe this is because of the different milk.

    I have been researching vitamins and found that Solgar's Vitamin D3 is free of yeast, soy, gluten, and dairy. It doesn't say free from egg, but doesn't look like it is in the ingredients unless it is disguised as something else. If you go to their website they have images of all their product's labels that lists what it is free of. I haven't tried these...

    ARCHIVED Doc In Kansas City?

    lisa25 replied to *Daniella*'s topic in Doctors

    I don't have a celiac doctor and have not been officially diagnosed, but with great results from the diet, I would not go back to eating gluten, dairy, or soy. My mother-in-law is a diagnosed celiac by blood test and biopsy. Her doctor is Dr. Buser (in Kansas City). She said he is very knowledgeable about celiac and she would definitely recommend him....

    I just started feeding my fish dried brine shrimp and thin paper sheets of seaweed. I found them both at the pet store. All of the flake food I have seen contains wheat and soy protein.

    I buy taco shells that are gluten and soy free. One brand is Art's...they also make blue corn chips that are really good. I think the other brand we sometimes get is Perez...it is in a green and white box. I think both companies are local to KC, so I don't know if other cities would have them.

    For gluten, dairy, and soy free I like Hormel little sizzlers breakfast sausages...they come in links and patties. I really like to make egg/sausage breakfast sandwiches with them using kinnikinnick english muffins warmed in the toaster. I eat sunkist brand fruit snacks. I believe they say gluten free on the package, but they are the only ones I found...

    My wedding in March will be gluten, dairy, and soy free. Between my fiance and I we have several celiacs in our family. My dad is doing BBQ and we are having simple sides catered by Hy-Vee. Their catering manager and dietician have been really helpful, so hopefully everything will turn out uncontaminated. I don't know if there are Hy-Vee's in CA, but...

    Check out: Open Original Shared Link This site is very interesting and there is a link on the left side "Dogtor J's Pet Food Handout" with a link to his recommended pet foods. I think they are all free of gluten, dairy, soy, and corn...but I haven't checked since I don't have a dog...yet. I will when I get a dog. Now I just have fish, but recently...
