Just curious i know in the begginning of the diet they say to steer clear of dairy so you can heal properly but it seems like noone here eats dairy atall.I want to know if theres any celiacs out there that successfully eat dairy without reaction and if so how long did it take to get to that point?? Thank youu

After 6 months dairy free I was able to add yogurt and lactose free cheese back into my diet. I'm 11 months gluten free and I still can not tolerate milk though unless it is in a baked good (and that seems to be hit and miss). So I avoid dairy for the most part. No ice cream for me either :(

Some people have problems with lactose, some have problems with casein. Some have no dairy intolerance at all or it's not bad enough for them to give up dairy. If you suspect a problem with dairy, you probably won't know unless you try eliminating it. You can alway eliminate it for about a month then try a little agian and see how you react.

yea i think it may be a problem i eliminated it since i start the diet 2 1/2 months ago added some in and not feeling super great i pray it changes cause this diet is hard enough without dairy.I do have some good changes but am not nearly feeling 100 % i am so limited with what i eat dont go out to eat have my whole house gluten-free and still manage to get sick a couple times a week:(

I eat dairy with lactaid tablets. If I don't have the lactaid, I get sick if I have the lactaid, no reaction at all. It's great stuff! Lactaid milk is good too.

i use lactaid milk all the time i used the tablet still had a reaction but i tend to think its the gluten-free macaroni i seemed to react last time to it as well:(

You might need to take 2 tablets. If I eat pizza or ice cream, I need 2. If I just eat something like a little chocolate, I just need to take one.

Maybe the macaroni didn't agree with you, try something else. Maybe a grilled cheese on Udi bread or a little cream cheese on a glutino or something.

Good luck!!!! :)

I used Lactaid for the first 4 or 5 months, but I don't seem to need it anymore. I am tolerating all forms of dairy - milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream - so some of us can. Good luck!

I couldn't eat cow dairy at first and ate only a little goat and sheep cheese. After a while (probably six or nine months) I was able to eat dairy again. With me it was a cow casein sensitivity. I don't seem to have problems with lactose.

I eat dairy all the time, since as long as I don't go really overboard, it doesn't give me problems. The only time I really feel like I have a dairy issue is if I try to drink a glass of milk - then I don't feel so good. But cheese, yogurt, ice cream, frozen yogurt, chocolate ... yum. So no, not everyone here is dairy free. :)

I had no problem w/ dairy for the first 8 years of being gluten-free. It's only in the last year that dairy's been bothering me and I'll tell ya what... going gluten-free was a lot easier!! Cheese is cheese and butter is butter... there ARE NO SUBSTITUTES... period (ha ha). I avoid most dairy and take the lactaid tablets sometimes.

I cut out dairy for a few weeks to see if it would speed up my healing. I felt zero difference so I added in a small glass of milk every morning and was fine with it. I'm going to wait a couple weeks and then try adding a small bit of cheese or butter everyday. Outside of that 8oz. in the morning, I'm dairy-free and haven't had any adverse reaction. It could be because I'm having it small amounts or I'm just not lactose intolerant. As long as I feel well, I'm keeping the milk. :P

I crave milk and cheese the way some people crave chocolate and sweets. And, I agree, I found it's harder being dairy-free than gluten-free.

I definitely found it more difficult to give up dairy than gluten although I do fine with Lactaid milk and use butter without a problem.

I am craving a slice of Kraft Singles or a grilled cheese sandwich! Heck, maybe I should have one and I'd be half-way prepped for my upcoming colonoscopy in a couple of weeks. ohmy.gif

LOL That would definitely be a more pleasant way to prep for a colonoscopy than drinking that stuff!

My son and I seem to be among the few. We are very sensitive to cc and still we can eat dairy. My son eats more than a half pound of cheese a day. And we go through 4 gallons of milk a week. We get it from a farmer who doesn't feed his cows gluten grains. We couldn't tolerate other milk and cheese.

      As far as I know, miso paste is gluten-free and should be added to the Safe List.  And, shouldn't soy sauce be on the Forbidden list?

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain.  I have three crushed vertebrae myself.  I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain.  This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds.  I hope you will give them a try. Here are articles on these vitamins and pain relief... Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/ And... Role of B vitamins, thiamine, pyridoxine, and cyanocobalamin in back pain and other musculoskeletal conditions: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33865694/

      Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.

      Hi, trents, Thanks for responding! One book I read is called, Doing Harm, by Maya Dusenbery.  She has wonderful perspective and insight, and it's all research-based.  It's about how women can't get treated.  Everyone should read this!  I wouldn't mind reading it again, even.  She believes that women are so busy taking care of families, working, etc., that we are more likely to ignore our pain and symptoms for longer.  Men have women bugging them to go to the doctor.  Women don't have anyone telling us that.  We don't have time to go.  Providers think we are over-emotional, histrionic, depressed, have low tolerance to pain...Men get prescribed opioids for the same symptoms women are prescribed anti-depressants.  My car crash in January 2020 made going to the doctor a full-time job.  I grew up with 2 rough and tumble brothers, played outside, climbed trees.  I was tough and strong, pain didn't bother me, I knew it would heal.  But do you think I could get treated for back pain--as a woman?  I am so familiar now with the brush-offs, the blank looks, the, "Take your Ibuprofen," the insinuation that I am just over-reacting, trying to get attention, or even, "Drug Seeking."  Took almost 2 years, but what was happening was Degenerative Sacroiliitis.  I couldn't walk right, my gait was off, effected my entire spine because gait was off.  I had braced myself with my legs in a front-impact, slightly head-on crash with someone who made a left turn in front of me from the opposite direction.  I finally had SI Joint Fusion surgery, both sides.  It's not a cure. I have given up on trying to get properly treated.  There is so much pain with these spine issues caused by bad gait:  scoliosis, lithesis, arthropathy, bulged disc, Tarlov cysts.  And I can't take anything because of my bad tummy. Not that I would ever hurt anyone, but I can relate to Luis Mangione who couldn't get treated for his back injury. I feel so alone.
