Milk is also the last significant source of iodine through the use of iodine to sterilize milking equiptment. We eat less table salt, iodized salt is not used in commercial food, Iodine in the US, until the 70's, was used to modify dough, and fertilization in the megafarms does not replenish the depleted iodine in our produce.  Aside from thyriod issues, iodine is needed for muscle tone.

In response to the original post title, I do think there is a need to clarify between allergies and autoimmune diseases. For each, a different type of T cell is involved. The link to the study po

This needed to be said as some forum participants are claiming milk is high in histamines. It also needs to be said that the problem may not be high intake of histamines in the diet but low production

Celiac disease has a genetic base. I don't know that dairy intolerance does.

I have to apologize for mentioning histamines in this thread because it seems to have triggered a tangent into vegan concerns completely unrelated to celiac. I really was just trying to call attention to the difference between autoimmune reactions and allergic reactions.

But I do believe it is good for people to learn more about their food, no matter the motivations behind their seeking information.

      If your son eventually becomes very symptomatic, that in itself will help keep him on the diet.  I had a friend who was diagnosed roughly the same time as me and she used to tell me a lot that she could get away with eating certain gluten containing foods.  (Not a good thing to do, but she did all the same).  In time she was unable to tolerate them anymore,  and is now very strict with her diet.   The football situation with the candy:   here in the UK at least, a lot of mainstream chocolate bars and sweets don't actually contain gluten (Bounty Bar, Snickers, Cadbury's Whirl, Crunchie etc) and you may find that that is the case where you live.

      Cross contamination issues with Food Processing Companies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Soy has been on our safe list for nearly 30 years, it is gluten-free. Most soy sauces do include wheat, and should be avoided. 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.       In general if you see "gluten-free" on a label in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., it does mean that the food is safe for those with celiac disease, and it does NOT mean that there is 19ppm gluten in it, as some people might lead you to believe. Whenever a company detects gluten in the 5-19ppm (most tests can't accurately go below this level) in foods which they have labelled gluten-free, especially a USA-based company (lawsuits in the USA are far more common and easier to win in such cases), they will immediately seek to find and eliminate the source of the gluten contamination. There is a very common myth or misconception that companies don't care at all if their products test between 5-19ppm, but they definitely do because a product recall could be just around the corner should they hit the 20ppm or higher level. Many people, including myself, now have home test kits like Nima, and companies are definitely aware of this.
