Guest guest Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Dear List, Thanks for the useful leads on children with allergies. I realize that it would help if I actually listed the allergies and intolerances, as it really isn't as simple as switching to soy. We are basically vegan rather than vegetarian. We do do free- range eggs though.. Allergies: all milk products (whey, casein, lactose) soy milk and soy cheese that contains casein. [known] Intolerances to: (various levels of reactions):tomato, tomato sauce, vinegar, soy sauce, tamari, corn, wheat, gluten (as a separate category to wheat), chocolate (dark, with no milk), chickpeas, certain lentils, processed soy (less so to tofu and edamame),eggs, seaweed, quorn. Also:cat dander. I could really do with advice on what to cook for protein. Though I am a vegetarian of 30 years myself, I'm finding myself challenged by this. We eat a very varied vegetable diet! Bean rich, kamut etc. But I need some more inspiration. Has anyone done anything truly tasty with quinoa? Is wheatberry related to wheat? My son has a lot of sinus colds and stomach discomfort. Has anyone tried UDO's oil as a replacement for fish oils? Is it true that some seaweeds have similar sugar structures to dairy products and can therefore produce similar allergic reactions? UDO's is seaweed based. Please also note that the firm suggestion came from a Naturopath not simply a " mainstream " doctor! thanks Chana <BR><BR><BR>**************************************<BR> AOL now offers free email to everyone.
