    I would presume it's fine, as it's just made from rice, which is gluten-free. I have eaten a lot of sushi since being gluten-free to no ill effect. I always take my wheat free soy sauce though of course.

    Sorry to bump this - I found it a very interesting post, particularly as I have noticed my own food intolerances develop in exactly the same order and with matching severity as he details: gluten (most severe reaction) --> casein --> soy --> corn (least severe reaction). I read the 'gluten intolerance and your pet' and 'Food Intolerance-...

    That's terrible to hear! I have our pets on gluten-free food because not only is their food kept in the kitchen, that is where we serve it up, and then their dishes go in the sink or the dishwasher. As often as you wash your hands after handling their food, what about the dust in the air (presuming dry food) or crumbs or little splodges or canned food on...

    If the seasoning contains just straight up spices then you're safe. I knew the packets of seasoning that came with the jerky gun weren't safe as they had ingredients like soy sauce (which is made from wheat) and 'natural flavoring' (which may or may not contain gluten - always assume it does). If they just say, for example, "salt, black pepper, cayenne...

    I guess nobody knows then! My protein bars have arrived - about to try one. Will report back as to whether or not 'pure' whey contains caseine (or at least, enough to bother me).

    Since I had to add casein to my 'can't eat' list 2 months ago, and discovered a nice new soy sensitivity last week I'm thinking I really don't want this to go any further... I can see that it'll be eggs next, then who knows... I won't have much left to eat. I also avoid corn and rice because they bloat me and just make me feel sluggish. Do you think...

    Hi Melisadki, Please don't panic - it's only as restrictive as you make it. You can pretty much 'fake' most of your old gluten foods, or you could do as I do - forget about them and switch to a naturally gluten free diet of whole natural foods. Works for me (easy and fast to cook, and I feel great), but it's your choice of course. My mother (diagnosed...

    I cut out casein about 6 weeks ago, because I had determined that it was giving me a problem. However, now I'd like to make sure it's casein specifically and not just lactose, or something else entirely. So I'm thinking about ordering the enterolab 'Cow's Milk Protein Sensitivity' test. I had this test in April as part of my gluten sensitivity and gene...

    I read somewhere that milk has two proteins - casein and whey. I have a reaction to casein. Does this mean I also have to avoid whey? I have just ordered some protein bars made by BioGenesis which claim to be both gluten and casein free (as well as corn and soy free). However the ingredients list includes: - whey protein concentrate - whey protein...

    My rant: Why is it so hard to talk my relatives into getting tested for gluten intolerance / celiac??! Don't they see how much healthier I am now? Don't they believe my tales of misery when I've been glutened? I find it really offensive, it's as if they think I'm overreacting either about my symptoms or about the dangers of them having the same thing...

    Yep, gluten gives me mouth ulcers too. I used to get them frequently before I went gluten-free (for what I thought was no apparent reason). Now when I get glutened they return.
  15. cornbread
    Before I went gluten-free I used to need to urinate all the time, and often felt like I had cystitis. Since going gluten-free the problems have vanished. When I get glutened, the frequency returns.

    You can actually order them online. I (and many people on the board) got mine at www.enterolab.com. They send you a swab and instructions, you scrape you inner cheeks (mouth cheeks! ) and send it back. They email you the results in a few weeks. They test for HLA genes, of which you have 2. You might have a celiac gene, you might have a 'gluten intolerance...

    Hi aurora, Don't worry about the questions - it's a learning process for all of us. And the gluten intolerances vs celiac thing *is* confusing. Did you have a gene test? If not I would highly suggest you get one. The reason being that if you DON'T have a celiac marker gene, you will always 'just' have gluten intolerance. However, if you DO have...

    That is cool! I just ordered their tTG kit the other day - I guess it's the instant result one. I have been gluten-free for a few months but was curious to see what my levels are next time I get glutened. I also wanted to basically test out the kit with a view to sending one to each of my close relatives. Most of them are being pretty stubborn about...

    I recently noticed that I get stomach pains/nausea after eating anything with soy in. My gluten and casein intolerances manifest themselves very differently, with more brain-related symptoms than GI ones. This feels like an actual 'you ate something bad' stomach thing. Anyone else have a soy problem? Did it go away over time? I never used to have...

    Effectively yes, in that both are treated with a strict gluten-free diet. Doctor's will usually only diagnose coeliac if intestinal damage is present, but because there are so many other ways this disease shows itself, I really feel this is out-dated. Classic intestinally diagnosed coeliac is just the tip of the gluten-intolerance iceberg. If you are reacting...

    Me too - felt much better initially then a few months in felt like I was getting 'glutened' when I wasn't. Process of elimination proved the culprit was dairy (casein, not lactose). If you are getting gluten-esque symptoms such as fatigue, etc. I would suspect casein rather than lactose. Casein has the morphine effect like gluten, whereas lactose (from...

    ARCHIVED Anger

    cornbread replied to swittenauer's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease

    Yeah, it's downright near impossible when it's happening to step back and think "I don't *really* feel this way, it's the gluten..." because at that point you really DO feel that angry/irritated. What makes it harder (for me) is other people reacting back at you as if you are just being a jerk. I have explained to my spouse a million times that this is...

    It makes sense to me - flour is dusty. Any room where there has been flour will contain tiny airbourne particles of flour for a while. If you inhale them you will get some in your throat, either via your nose or mouth. If licking an envelope is enough to gluten someone (it is for me!) then breathing in flour certainly would be. Scary!
