Today I bought Dannon Light and Fit Yogurt. I was diagnosed in January 2008 and I read the ingredients and it looked okay. After eating it, I realized I had been glutened as I began having horrible stomach pains, fatigue, brain fog and headache. Has anyone else had this happen? Are there other good alternatives that are safe to eat out there? I am hesitant about eating anything that is not labeled gluten free now...

There are several flavors of Yoplait yogurt that are labeled gluten-free. I eat one every day with no problem. And Brown Cow brand is gluten-free also. But could it be possible that you are lactose intolerant?

WalMart brand (Great Value) is also gluten free. They put Gluten Free on the container.

Yup, all Yoplait Yogurts are gluten free with the exception of the cookies and granola ones (the obvious).

Only Dannon's Plain Yogurt is gluten free. Yoplait and Brown Cow are two gluten free brands, as long as you get the ones without granola or grains added - read the label. I also recently heard that Stoneyfield Farm's yogurt is now gluten free.

If you can get it Mountain High Yougurt is great! It states gluten-free on the label, is lower in sugar than other brands, and has the good bacteria your body needs. I use the plain one and mix fruit in during the summer. In the winter I get the flavored varieties.

Dannon states at site that unflavored is gluten free but flavoed is not. Yoplait is gluten free on all flavors. Still check to be sure. Wegmans has a whole gluten free section as well as many products in which thaey state on packaging gluten-free.

I have have never seen a yogurt with gluten .  It doesn’t make sense .  Except those ones with the granola mix in- those contain gluten.  Most yogurts even say gluten-free on them.  But I like vanilla with fresh fruit better.  Or those orange or lemon flavored ones - good plain or with fruit, too

I thought i was lactose intollerant until i tried 0% fat greek Oikos. It was the fat causing all my symptoms. Of course it is gluten-free.

Might check for pancreas issues and taking enzymes, might be a dead, or weak pancreas. It sounds like a digestive enzyme issue.

Yes, tried enzymes but made my stomach burn terribly. I no longer have my gallbladder. Possibly the issue.

      Shortness Of Breath (the "sighs")?

      It was gradual, just not being able to catch my breathe like I always had to take a deep breathe even taking a few steps I would be winded.

      Hi Marie Welcome to the forum. I am so sorry your daughter is pointing the finger at you like this.   I am afraid children of any age can be very cruel to their parents - I certainly look back at some of the things I said to my mother and father in the past, and wish I could unsay them.  Sometimes people just need a safe place to vent, and unfortunately having a go at one's parents is the all too easy option.  If she is anything like me, she will regret what she says one day.  (Oh... if only I had the chance rewind the clock!) I just wanted to add one more thing to Trent's and Scott's excellent posts and that is regarding diet:  I have to say, not one person  (my nutritionist, my gastroenterologist or GP) has EVER suggested that a poor diet was the cause of my coeliac disease.    In all the various clinics I have attended these past nearly 12 years no-one has ever asked if I was brought up on processed food, or questioned if I eat 5 fruit and veg a day.  Sure, unfortunately I am only too well aware that I could do a lot better with my diet and it's a constant challenge for me not to give into what I like (unfortunately I've always had a sweet tooth).   But I know some super healthy 10 fruit and veg a day types who still got coeliac disease, and equally, a lot of people who eat all the wrong stuff and they still have cast iron stomachs. Do encourage her to get checked though - it may be that she hasn't got coeliac disease at all. Come back to us if you need any more support through the process. Cristiana

      My Adult daughter is blaming me for her "possible" Celiac disease.

      Welcome to the forum, @Marie70! The first thing to know is that celiac disease has a genetic base. The two main genes that have been identified as providing the potential to develop celiac disease are HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8. About 40% of  the general population carries one or both of these genes. However, only about 1% of the general population ever develops celiac disease. So, we know that in addition to possessing the genetic potential to develop celiac disease, there has to be some triggering environmental or medical "stress" factor (or factors) that switches the gene or genes on such that they are awakened from their latent condition and become active. What may be the triggering factor (or factors) is the subject of much debate. Here is an article that discusses this subject: Second, what will your daughter have to say if her testing for celiac disease is negative? She may have to add crow to her diet. Third, and this is what I really want to focus on because my wife and I are dealing with something similar in our relationship with our own adult daughter: the real problem is not whatever shortcomings you, as the family cook, may have had when providing meals, the real problem is with your daughter's heart/soul/attitude. If it turns out to be true that she has celiac disease, it is likely she would have developed the condition sooner or later even if her diet had been healthier while growing up. She is angry about the prospect of having to deal with the dietary and social limitations that having celiac disease would impose upon her. She doesn't want to face up to the fact that this may be a new reality that will dramatically changer her life and she is looking for someone or something to blame. And she has conveniently turned her wrath on you rather than saying to herself, "Okay, this is what it is. Now what can I do to make adjustments in order to with it the best way I can?"  When faced with a life-changing reality, people will either accept it for what it is, make adjustments and move on or they will become angry and look for something or someone to blame and get stuck. For now, at least, your daughter has chosen the latter option. Don't let her problem destroy both of you.

      It sounds like you’re carrying a lot of guilt, but please know that you didn’t cause your daughter’s potential celiac disease or your son’s Crohn’s. These conditions have strong genetic components, and while diet can influence symptoms, it does not cause autoimmune diseases. You did the best you could with the knowledge you had at the time, and no parent is perfect. Your daughter’s frustration is understandable, but it’s likely coming from a place of fear and uncertainty rather than true blame. Let her get tested, and if she does have celiac disease, you can support her moving forward. Instead of focusing on guilt, try shifting the conversation toward healing and learning together. You’re not alone, and you don’t deserve to carry this weight on your own. This article might be helpful. She needs to be screened for celiac disease before she can be sure that she has it. Another approach not discussed in the article is a genetic test for celiac disease, which she could do without eating gluten.
