The same thing happened to me also. Now, I have been buying heavy cream and making my own cool whip.

Just get a blender and whip it up for a few minutes. Its just has good as cool whip.

Cool Whip is gluten-free. It does, however, contain casein. Could you be sensitive to that?

or corn, too... a lot of celiacs are sensitive to corn, and i am pretty sure it has corn syrup.

I agree that it may be a dairy sensitivity.

I know this isn't a really good alternative, but if you can eat eggs, maybe whip up some egg whites and powdered sugar, Xylitol, or Stevia (if that works for meringue). I suppose an egg replacer may also work, though I haven't tried.

There are creams made with rice, so maybe one of those can be whipped. I don't have a sweet tooth at all, so sugary stuff isn't "my thing". Though I've never had any trouble making stuff for special occasions. I know meringue is easy enough, as is whipped cream.

I think Cool Whip has soybean oil in it as well. Soy can be very hard for many to digest as well...

      gluten-free and continued upper left side pain after drinking wine

      By trents · Posted

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.

      Intolerance after eating certified pasta gluten free could be caused by additives & or stabilaiser added in the composition of the pasta ingredients, even in the best brands please ceck well before buyng & eating

      By trents · Posted

      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
