Lactose Intolerant.

Hello, I just recently ( 5 days ago ) started a gluten free diet and I feel GREAT. One thing I am wondering though is if my other allergy - lactose - could be mroe sensative when off gluten? Only asking because I had a really bad morning this morning, and someone said maybe it was from the mayo I had yesterday. " Before " going gluten free however I used to be able to have small amounts of mayo and be fine......

Could I be mroe sensative now? Also, is there a mayo that is easier for lactose intolerant people? I REALLY like my tuna on gluten free bread and of course it is dry and yucky without mayo or something.

First of all, there is no lactose in mayonaise -- i just read the ingredients on my hellmans, just to make sure. There is eggs, tho, and there may be soy oil. Many people also have problems with eggs and soy.

Many people do find their other sensitivities become more obvious when they quit gluten - probably because your stomach was so inflamed already, either you didnt notice the other affects, or your stomach is actually managing to absorb more of the offending food than it could before.

You can look for vegan mayonaise to see if the eggs are what is bothering you.

The other thing to keep in mind, some people seem to find that, as their stomachs heal, they just have some bad days, where their stomach just reacts to nothing. So you might want to test the mayo again another day to see if that is really the problem.

Make sure you have a milk free brand of mayo. Some brands have it some don't so double check.

THANK YOU. Mucho helpful. I don't think that I have a prob with eggs or soy, but now I am starting to think I may just try cutting them out and see how it goes.

I found that I couldn't tolerate foods with eggs in after my digestion collapsed and I went gluten-free but after 2 months on the Specific Carb Diet and cutting out all the possible antagonists by just eating plain - good protein, meats, fish and poultry, fresh veg and fruits and a little honey and well-fermented yogurt, my gut has really started to heal and I can now tolerate some of those foods that i couldn't cope with a few weeks ago, like eggs and baking powder.

What is the Specific Carb diet? I have psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and have now discovered I am a coeliac. My psoriatic arthritis is greatly improved on a gluten-free diet but there is no change in my psoriasis. Could I have other intolerances? I have noticed a lot of gluten free products contain corn. Also I have cut out dairy products and take soya instead and I feel much better but again there is no change with my skin. I would love to get it cleared up.

      Delayed reaction

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, it's not typical for gluten exposure to cause symptoms as delayed as a week or two after ingestion. In most cases, reactions to gluten occur within hours to a few days, depending on individual sensitivity and how much gluten was consumed. The delayed symptoms you describe—stomach cramping in the mornings and flaky stool—might suggest that something else is contributing to your discomfort. Cross-contamination is a common challenge, especially when dining out, and it's great that you're doing your best to stay gluten-free. However, the inconsistency of your symptoms and the long delay between exposure and reaction could warrant further investigation. It's possible that another gastrointestinal condition, such as IBS, a food intolerance, or a reaction to something else in your diet, might be contributing to your symptoms. You might consider keeping a detailed food and symptom diary to identify potential patterns or triggers. Additionally, consulting your gastroenterologist could provide clarity. They may suggest testing to rule out other issues, such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), microscopic colitis, or other sensitivities. If you suspect cross-contamination is a significant issue, you could also ask for follow-up bloodwork (e.g., tTG-IgA) to check if your antibodies are elevated, which might indicate ongoing gluten exposure.

      Enegy level extremely low

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      No cure so far, and a treatment might still be years away. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure the article would be misleading, as it offers many different avenues to pursue for those with ongoing symptoms. The recommendation to keep a food diary and remove common food intolerance triggers would be a good way to discover issues with casein/milk, especially if you added that back to your diet after a couple of months and your symptoms returned. Many additional food intolerance issues can be permanent in some people.
