You would probably do well to browse through the local bookstore. Even if you can't find a cookbook solely dedicated to the foods you can have, you might find one with a number of recipes that look good to you and within your ability. In particular, check out the cookbooks designed for students, beginning cooks, or those with little time.

Another possibility is to go with allergy cookbooks. I have two: Food Allergy Survival Guide and Allergy Cuisine. However, I generally just pick out the recipes I can have from my other books, making substitutions if possible. I've only made a couple things from the first book and nothing from the second yet, though, so I don't know if I can give a ringing endorsement :lol: You can look at reviews at Lame Advertisement.

What your best bet would be is cooking lessons from a good chef (note-- not a cook. This is where it is better to go for a Gordon Ramsey than a Rachel Ray). They know their ingredients inside and out and can help find something that you can eat that will keep you healthy. Some places to find these are by looking for a culinary school in the area and then calling their information office to see if any of the professors give private lessons or specialize in food allergies.

Hi holdthegluten - That is a beautiful baby - is it yours?

For cookbooks I've read good things about these; (excerpt from the www.seattletimes.com)

"Allergy-Free Cookbook: No Eggs, No Dairy, No Nuts, No Gluten" (DK Publishing, $25) by Alice Sherwood is an indispensable guide for anyone learning to live with allergies. It's full of recipes and useful tips for shopping and traveling. But it's the chart for substituting ingredients that will transform your kitchen and cooking.

"Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free Cooking: Over 200 Delicious Recipes to Help You Live a Healthier, Allergy-Free Life" (Marlowe & Company, $16.95), written by Gig Harbor resident Susan O'Brien, is a real cook's book. O'Brien's creative recipes make eating healthfully both easy and enjoyable.

For an easy resource, try the blog written by the Gluten free Goddess- Karina, who has celiac and many more allergies than just dairy and soy. Her blog is fun (well, for me anyway) but she takes some of the stress and worry out of cooking if you're new to it.

Good luck!

Another book would be: Cooking Free, by Carol Fenster, PhD. This book has 200 recipes for people with multiple food allergies including alternatives to gluten,dairy,and sugar.

I've purchased most of my books used on-line thru Amazon. Some of the new books are shipped free and the price is very reasonable.

Your local library may also have many allergy type cookbooks. You would have to browse thru them and pick which recipes would work for you using substitutes.

Also, google dairy,gluten,soy,etc. free and check out the results. Many free recipes on line. Open Original Shared Link and Open Original Shared Link

Narrow your search on these website by using the words gluten free, etc.

Cooking Free by Carol Fenster has gluten, dairy, egg, and sugar free recipes. She does use soy (in the form of tofu) frequently as a dairy replacement, but most of her recipes don't have it.

my nutritionist published a book i really like - it is mostly gluten, dairy, soy free - I can't verify right now because I loaned it to my parents. His website is "wholelifenutrition.net". He has some sample recipies on his site.

Good luck.

Oh yeah, also, raw food cookbooks can be helpful that way - though they like to include raw soy sauce, it can be avoided quite easily. And any time they call for soaked oat groats, you can use soaked buckwheat groats. You have to be willing to eat raw, though. (I have been and it's going very well so far.) Ani Phyo's cookbook is great, and Raw Food Real Life is pretty good too. Ani's is simpler.

Good luck.

I would suggest "Cooking Free", too. My husband bought it for me last Christmas--it's very good :)

If there is a Whole Foods store by you they can help you with things like that. And I know the one by me offers a class every month!

      9 Year Old test results - help interpret

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Gill.brittany8! There are two main genes that have been identified as creating potential for developing celiac disease, HLDQ2 and HLDQ8. Your daughter has one of them. So, she possesses genetic the potential to develop celiac disease. About 40% of the general population carries one or both of these genes but only about 1% of the general population develops celiac disease. It takes both the genetic potential and some kind of triggering stress factor (e.g., a viral infection or another prolonged health problem or an environmental factor) to "turn on" the gene or genes. Unfortunately, your daughter's doctor ordered a very minimal celiac antibody panel, the tTG-IGA and total IGA. Total IGA is not eve a test per celiac disease per se but is a check for IGA deficiency. If the person being checked for celiac disease is IGA deficient, then the scores for individual IGA tests (such as the tTG-IGA will be abnormally low and false negatives can often be the result. However, your daughter's total IGA score shows she is not IGA deficient. You should consider asking our physician for a more complete celiac panel including DGP-IGA, TTG_IGG and DGP-IGG. If she had been avoiding gluten that can also create false negative test results as valid antibody testing requires having been consuming generous amounts of gluten for weeks leading up to the blood draw. Do you know if the GI doc who did the upper GI took biopsies of the duodenum and the duodenum bulb to check for the damage to the small bowel lining caused by celiac disease? Having said all that, her standard blood work shows evidence of possible celiac disease because of an elevated liver enzyme (Alkaline Phosphatase) and low values for hemoglobin.

      9 Year Old test results - help interpret

      By Gill.brittany8 · Posted

      Hi everyone  After years of stomach issues being ignored by doctors, my 9 y/o daughter finally had an upper endoscopy which showed a ton of stomach inflammation. The GI doctor ordered some bloodwork and I’m attaching the results here. Part will be from the CBC and the other is celiac specific. I’m not sure what’s relevant so I’m just including extra information just in case.   The results are confusing because they say “No serological evidence of celiac disease. tTG IgA may normalize in individuals with celiac disease who maintain a gluten-free diet. Consider HLA DQ2 and DQ8 testing to rule out celiac disease.” But just a few lines down, it says DQ2 positive. Can someone help make sense of this? Thanks so much.  result images here: https://ibb.co/WFkF0fm https://ibb.co/kHvX7pC https://ibb.co/crhYp2h https://ibb.co/fGYFygQ

      Food Tasting Salty

      By Mnofsinger · Posted

      Those are great points and some follow up thoughts and ideas. I think you're both stating the same thing in two different ways, but I appreciate the "accuracy" of what you're getting to.   1. Are you both stating that the "too salty of a taste" could be triggered by a histamine reaction, and the flavor is coming from the electrolytes? If that is the case, wouldn't the individuals mouth always be salty during a "Glutening" situation, or are we saying that the person could get "use to the flavor" until introducing food or beverage and that could be enough to "stir the pot" and notice the salty flavor? 2. To push back on "#1": If that were true anyone with issues of histamine releasing foods/treatments would experience the same thing. Also, I did not experience a situation where most beverages were "too salty". Thoughts?

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By trents · Posted

      The only vegetable sources of B12 are some fermented bean products using a certain microbiotic culture. It is next to impossible to get adequate B12 from vegetable sources without supplementation. Same with D3. Some mushrooms can make D3 when exposed to UV light. Are you vegetarian or vegan? Do you do dairy and eggs or no animal products at all? Low B12 and D3 could definitely cause or contribute to many of the symptoms you have been experiencing but would not cause celiac disease. It is more likely the other way around, especially if you are a vegetarian eating no animal products. Many of your symptoms seem neurological in nature. It is well known that the B vitamin complex is vital to neurological health but so is D3. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9820561/

      Grain fed cow milk vs 100% Grass fed cow milk

      Russ, can you link an article supporting your assertion that small amounts of gliadin are detectable in human breast milk? Not doubting you but it would be nice to have the whole text for reference.
