We are basically vegan vegetarian. My husband and daughter have dairy allergy. My son has egg allergy and celiac. So, now I have no idea how to cook! Popcorn and fruit shake is what I gave him last night for supper. I need so much help! How can I make healthy meals and still meet my families needs without cooking all day long????

Stressed and confused in UTAH.

Taffy :huh:

Use lentils (brown, red, green), beans (garbanzo, black, pinto, navy etc.), rice, nuts, vegetables, fruits, rice milk, almond milk, quinoa, buckwheat, healthy oils, spices, Earth Balance...you can do so much with those ingredients. There is a vegan market near me and many of their items are actually gluten free. Pick up a raw foods cook book or vegan cook book and see how you can modify the ingredients to be gluten-free. Most of the foods I cook are gluten-free and vegan. I cook things like brown rice with lentils or black beans with veggies. You can do soooo much with vegetables. Experiment with new ones you've never tried before.

Are you actually vegan or is it just an issue with the eggs and dairy?

      Welcome to the forum @Newhere19! Yes, we have had many forum members that for one reason or another cannot go forward with the confirmation step of the endoscopy with biopsy. Usually it is because they have already been gluten free for a significant period and react so severely to gluten ingestion that they cannot undertake the gluten challenge without endangering their health. But we also have had more than a few who have severe anxiety surrounding the endoscopy itself and cannot bring themselves to go forward with it. May I ask, what was your antibody score or scores, what was the name of the test or tests done and what were the ranges given for normal/negative vs. positive?  What symptoms do you have? What caused you to seek out celiac testing? And to answer your question, many on this forum have had to go forward with the gluten free diet without an official diagnosis for the reasons already stated. You should start seeing symptom improvement within weeks. But realize that achieving a truly free gluten lifestyle is more challenging than most of us realize at the outset. There is a real learning curve involved in order to achieve consistency. That is partly due to the many unexpected places gluten is tucked away in the food supply/supplements/medications and partly because of CC (Cross Contamination) issues. I will offer this primer to get you off to a good start:

      I recently had bloodwork done with a GI specialist and was told that I have celiac.. .but they will not confirm the diagnosis without an endoscopy and biopsy. Due to severe trauma I cannot endure the endoscopy and they made it quite clear full sedation is not an option. So now I have to venture forward assuming this is in fact what is causing all of my symptoms. Has anyone else here had the same experience and started the gluten free diet to see if you're really suffering from celiac? If so, how long did you commit before safely saying the results are accurate? My thought was at least three months would be necessary. Much love to everyone ❤️

      10 years later, my celiac is progressing

      Your experience sounds incredibly challenging and frustrating. It’s impressive that you’ve been so methodical in tracking your triggers and finding safe foods. While it may feel bizarre, sensitivities like these can sometimes point to underlying conditions like chemical sensitivities, histamine intolerance, or even specific food additives. Have you considered consulting with a functional medicine practitioner or allergist who might specialize in these types of issues? You’ve done a lot of the hard work already with your food diary, and that could provide valuable insights for a professional to help you further.

      Welcome to the forum! The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
