Rice Milk .002% Gluten From Barley


BarbaQ

Recommended Posts

BarbaQ Rookie

Hello

My 1 1/2 year old son has just been diagnosed with gluten intolerance. We are trying to come to terms with what this really means. We knew he had allergies and were in the middle of an exclusion diet when he tested positive for gluten. He is also dairy intolerant, allergic to chick peas, split peas, green peas and lentils.

Can he have rice milk? It states on the container that it has .002% gluten from barley. Any advice?

Thanks

Barb

No, he can not have that brand rice milk. I am sure someone will post safe brands of Rice Milk and other dairy free alternatives.

I wouldnt give it to him. I struggled for a long time to find a "milk" I actually like. Mostly I make my own almond or hazelnut milk. But I do buy this brand. We all like it and it is good to cook/bake with :

He can't have that brand of rice milk. He can have Pacific rice milk, Whole Foods 365 brand rice milk....there are a few others as well. You can also just go entirely without milk substitutes if your son doesn't really like them.

Oh - and I second Shay's hemp milk suggestion. That brand is quite good and offers some nutrition you won't find in many of the "milks" out there. :)

I use the plain hemp milk to make white "cream" sauces and it is yummy. :)

Rice milk has gluten? I hadn't checked into it yet but was planning to now that I know I'm lactose intolerant. Wow!

ShayFL Enthusiast

Only some brands Beth. You have to read labels and sometimes call manufacturers.

I third it - and it's cheaper even at Whole Foods than it is on the website that Shay gave. (I think I pay $3.99 a box or something like that.) The vanilla makes a FABULOUS latte!

I buy it at Whole Foods too. I just linked to the site so she could "see" it.

It does! I especially love chai lattes made w/ the vanilla flavor. YUM! It's great for baking too, and for smoothies, and for cereal. It's pretty much just awesome in every way! :lol: (I really am not a hemp milk sales person, I promise LOL).

Beth in NC Contributor

Which of the Hemp milks would you put over cereal...Rice Chex...I was just loving getting a cold bowl of cereal when I realized the lactose intolerance.

Original or Vanilla?

ShayFL Enthusiast

I think either one would be fine Beth. I always just buy the original. If you want it vanilla. Add a tsp of vanilla extract to it. :)

I buy their milk too. It's really good, but it has a bit of a "nutty" taste, but it's so creamy and I love it.

Yes, I'd advise against feeding your son that rice milk (probably Rice Dream). Instead, I'd feed him nut or soy milk made by Pacific Organic Foods. But please be further advised that none of these is a baby formula. - P.J.

stick with Soy Milk or Hemp Milk

Giving soy to little boys (or anybody for that matter) is a bad idea, it will affect his sexual maturation due to the phytoestrogens in soy. Stick with rice, almond or hemp milk instead.

Okay so what is everyone's opinion on Goats Milk instead of cow's milk? I know there's the lactose intolerant crowd and the caisen sensitive crowd and supposedly goat's milk is okay for caisen sensitive? I haven't looked into this yet, it's just what DH was telling me because he thinks he is caisen sensitive.

      JettaGirl, there are a number of serum antibody tests that can be ordered when diagnosing celiac disease. Unfortunately, most physicians will only order one or two. So, a negative on those one or two may or may not add up to seronegative celiac disease since had a "full celiac antibody panel" been ordered you may have thrown some positives. False negatives in the IGA antibody tests can also be caused by low total IGA count. So, a "total IGA" test should always be ordered along with the single most popular test, the tTG-IGA. Unfortunately, many physicians only order the tTG-IGA. And then there are other tests that are IGG based. A full celiac panel will include both the IGA tests and the IGG tests. Here is a primer:  And here's another article on seronegative celiac disease: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4586545/

      Thank you! It was never explained to me why it didn’t show up in the labs. This makes so much more sense to me now. The endoscopy test was very easy though. I was worried about my first one and have had 2 since. I don’t think I was able to eat after midnight because of anesthesia, the procedure itself took 20 minutes. I did need a driver to get me home after just where I was put under anesthesia for the procedure.

      You are confusing two different things. You are confusing seronegative celiac disease, in which all celiac antibody tests will be negative despite a positive biopsy, with mixed positive and negative antibody tests. It is normal for someone with celiac disease to not have all antibody tests throw positives. That's why they have developed different antibody tests. What one misses, another may catch. It is the same way when diagnosing many other medical conditions. Usually, not all diagnostic tests for that condition will be positive. You have to look at the total body of evidence.

      I had 2 blood tests at the same time. One negative, one positive.  No insurance coverage for endoscopy but felt MUCH MUCH better after three days gluten-free and many hair, skin, and rash issues cleared or improved in a week. It seems there are lots of false negatives in Celiac blood tests.

      Check out Sally K. Norton’s work on oxalates. She wrote a book called Toxic Superfoods. Your symptoms are similar to some of mine. Many of us with celiac disease have oxalate toxicity because of the damage to our guts. Oxalates chelates our minerals and calcium binds to oxalates. At least check out her website, it may help a lot. Good luck.
