Goat Cheese

At night Ive been eating goat cheese with some rice crackers to help stabilize my blood sugar before I go to bed. For the past several days I wake up aroud three in the morning with my heart racing, stomach upset, and sweats. I still havent determined if I have a dairy intolerance as well as gluten.

Im wondering if they use gluten in the process of making cheese. But wouldnt it be listed on the label? All that the label says is Pasteurized goats milk, rennet, and enzymes.

Could this cheese be a source of gluten?

I eat goat cheese all the time and never had a problem. Do you trust the crackers?

Could it be something you had earlier?

I have had the pounding heart-night sweats before, too and was never able to figure out the cause...

Perhaps go back to plain rice/soft veggies/poached chicken or eggs for a day or two.

Good Luck,

Pam

It should be gluten-free.

Hi Stef,

I had a bad reaction to the mold on the rind of aged goat cheese. I'm sure it wasn't the cheese itself because I had non-aged cheese from the same (local) place and had no problem. I called and talked to the dairyman and we talked about how the milk is processed and so on and he went through all the precautions they take to keep their cheese from getting spoiled. I also contacted the manufacturer of the wax that was put on the cheese to age it and they said that their wax is completely gluten free.

      Micronutrient Inadequacies in the US Population "A US national survey, NHANES 2007-2010, which surveyed 16,444 individuals four years and older, reported a high prevalence of inadequacies for multiple micronutrients (see Table 1). Specifically, 94.3% of the US population do not meet the daily requirement for vitamin D, 88.5% for vitamin E, 52.2% for magnesium, 44.1% for calcium, 43.0% for vitamin A, and 38.9% for vitamin C. For the nutrients in which a requirement has not been set, 100% of the population had intakes lower than the AI for potassium, 91.7% for choline, and 66.9% for vitamin K. The prevalence of inadequacies was low for all of the B vitamins and several minerals, including copper, iron, phosphorus, selenium, sodium, and zinc (see Table 1). Moreover, more than 97% of the population had excessive intakes of sodium, defined as daily intakes greater than the age-specific UL" My Supplements: Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg  (Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) levels in the body decrease steadily with age, reaching 10–20% of young adult levels by age 70.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      The paleo diet is based on the idea that the human body evolved to consume a balanced ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, and that the modern diet is out of balance. A healthy ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 is 1:1–4:1, while the modern diet is closer to 20:1–40:1. The paleo diet aims to restore this balance.

      Hey all!

      Best thing you can do for them! First-degree family members (parents, siblings, children), who have the same genotype as the family member with celiac disease, have up to a 40% risk of developing celiac disease. Make sure you and they get enough vitamin D and iodine in their diet.   Iodine deficiency is a significant cause of mental developmental problems in children, including implications on reproductive functions and lowering of IQ levels in school-aged children. Vitamin D deficiency is common in the United States, affecting up to 42% of the population.

      Thanks. I ve joined coeliac uk but found them particularly unhelpful - they told me to eat gluten for 6 weeks then have an  endoscopy! I m actually a retired hospital dietician so pretty well know what I m doing…… Louise

      You are very welcome.😊  Do keep posting if we can help any further, and also if you aren't a member already I would recommend joining Coeliac UK if only for one year - they produce a very good gluten-free food and drink guide, a printed copy and also an app you can use on a smartphone which I am told is very helpful when one shops. I think the one thing I would say is be extra vigilant when eating out.  Never feel afraid to question the service staff.  I think most of my glutenings have happened away from the home.
