Do I have to be careful of the ingredient sodium lactate? It is often found in lunch meats/cold cuts.

Do these ingredients contain milk?

We frequently receive calls about the following ingredients. They do not contain milk protein and need not be restricted by someone avoiding milk:

Calcium lactate

Lactic acid (however, lactic acid starter culture may contain milk)

Calcium stearoyl lactylate

oleoresin

Cocoa butter

Sodium lactate

Cream of tartar

Sodium stearoyl lactylate

Calcium lactate made my dd have an allergic reaction every time she had it. She has dairy allergy. So even though it was listed I KNOW it made her react with a dairy reaction.

Are you sure there wasn't something else that caused the reaction, perhaps CC or another ingredient?? Sodium Lactate is not usually milk based. Both my children ingest food containing sodium lactate without any reaction..

In the UK, Sodium Lactate is defined as

===================================

Sodium salt of lactic acid (E270), a natural acid produced by bacteria in fermented foods. All fermented foods are very rich in lactic acid. Commercially produced by bacterial fermentation on starch and molasses. Also produced in large amounts in the large intestine by the resident bacteria.

===================================

I did find that Sodium Lactate is based on Lactic Acid, which can be made form the fermentation of lactose:

===================================

Lactic acid is used in a variety of food stuffs to act as an acidity regulator. Although it can be fermented from lactose (milk sugar), most commercially used lactic acid is derived from bacteria such as Bascillus acidilacti, Lactobascillus delbueckii or L. bulgaricuswhey to ferment carbohydrates from sources such as cornstarch, potatoes or molasses. Thus, although it is commonly known as "milk acid", products claiming to be vegetarian or vegan do sometimes feature lactic acid as an ingredient.

I take calcium lactate from Standard Process. I called to make sure, and was told it was gluten-free.

      Certified gluten free oats

      By Matt13 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply ! I am asking because tomorow i have egd and nobody told me not to eat gluten-free oats… and i was scared that it could ruin my biopsy results…

      Yes, I would think that for the 10% of celiacs who can't tolerate oats it would cause villous atrophy just like gluten. No, it would not produce marsh 3b villous atrophy in a couple of days. Nothing will produce measurable villous atrophy that fast. It takes at least two weeks of at least 10g of gluten consumption daily (10g is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread) to develop measurable villous atrophy and even then probably not 3b villous atrophy. Are you asking these questions in because you are considering taking on a gluten challenge?

      Thanks for the awnsers i understand there is maybe system reaction but do they create or cause villious atrophy? And igmf you it them for example a couple of days di they instantly induce marsh 3b?

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By robingfellow · Posted

      My gallbladder was at 94% ejection fraction according to my HIDA scan before surgery, when the "normal" range is considered to be between 30-80%, so the surgeon recommended removal because I had been experiencing severe chronic upper quadrant pain and even vomiting despite having a strong stomach. A biopsy after surgery showed intense inflammation suggesting my gallbladder was on the verge of bursting if I hadn't gotten it removed.   The last time my iron and vitamin d levels were checked post-gluten free diet they were in a normal range (I take 60mg iron tablets every other day, and vitamin D capsules daily) I do also take magnesium daily, specifically 400mg magnesium bisglycinate at night to aid my sleep since I try to avoid taking melatonin due to personal preference.   I'll definitely have to keep in mind the point about celiac possibly causing gallbladder problems, I'll probably wait until I can see a proper GI and get their input before I attempt to reintroduce gluten back into my diet that way any reaction I may or may not have can be properly assessed.

      Can gallbladder issues cause symptoms of celiac disease?

      By Mr-Collateral531 · Posted

      I have dealt with gallbladder issues on-and-off for about ten years now. I was diagnosed with biliary dyskinesia in 2016 but chose to keep my gallbladder. Then in July 2022, I was diagnosed with celiac disease. Your surgeon is partially right in that your gallbladder can definitely cause some of those issues. However, the flip side to the coin is celiac can cause issues with your gallbladder. It’s a lesser studied area of disease manifestation, but limited research has shown a correlation between celiac, gallbladder dismotility, and how a gluten-free diet can help increase the gallbladder ejection fraction. Which literally happened in my case. In 2016 my HIDA scan measured my gallbladder ejection fraction as 29%. Then in 2023 after going strict gluten free, my HIDA scan measured it as 100%. It’s not perfect. I get right upper quadrant pain from time to time still. But at least I got that piece of evidence for myself.  I haven’t found any empirical studies on it but I have a theory. The gallbladder stores your bile for digestion. When the food enters your small intestine, the cells of your duodenum secrete cholecystokinin (CCK). CCK is what tells your gallbladder to empty. It’s literally Greek for “bile sac move.” Since the duodenum is a prime location for epithelial cell damage in celiac, it seems very possible that this can alter production of digestive hormones like CCK. As the small intestine begins to heal it produces more CCK and therefore the gallbladder can once again function. If you care to share, why did you need to have yours removed? In regards to the low iron and low vitamin D despite supplementation, that is also common in celiac. I fought vitamin D deficiency for almost a year despite taking 5000 IUs a day. I don’t have anemia, but I know I can use more iron based on my last round of blood work. Best I can say is you need to right cofactors as well. My vitamin D level virtually stayed the same for three different blood tests all 12 weeks apart. One was even after taking the prescription vitamin D of 50,000 IUs once a week. Once again, something not all doctors seem to know, but a nutrient deficiency isn’t necessarily treated by just taking more of that nutrient. Vitamin D metabolism requires many cofactors and processes in the small intestine, liver, and kidneys. And iron metabolism requires many cofactors as well including vitamin D. The biggest thing is to find a supplement regiment that works for you. Do you take specific vitamins or do you take a multivitamin? How much iron is in the supplement you take? What type of iron is it? Do you take magnesium? Another big game changer for me was adding 450mg/day of magnesium supplements for about two months and then dropping to 200mg/day. I would take 250mg of magnesium aspartate at lunch time and then 200mg of magnesium glycinate around 7:00pm. Magnesium is a huge cofactor for both vit D and iron metabolism. And that’s just one. Zinc, copper, vitamin K, boron, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin C are all contributing cofactors to vitamin D and iron metabolism. But too much supplementing is also dangerous. I’ve also been through iron overload and zinc toxicity in my post-celiac journey. Once again, doctors just saying to do one thing without considering anything else. I hope this helps and if you have any more questions don’t hesitate to ask.
