Re: Questions for those avoiding soy

Hi my son is allergic to soy - he cannot have lecithin or soybean oil.

Also some monoandtriglycerides are soy based, such as Barbara's instant

potatoes

Yes we avoid everything with soy protein, soy lecithin etc.

We definitely avoid soy oil and anything with soy protein, but my kids don't

seem to have a problem with lecithin. I think my son's high peptides after

three months on the diet were from soy and corn. I haven't bothered to do a

retest yet now that we are basically soy and corn free--I suspect the

numbers would be lower.

Caleb can have soy lechitin but soy oil and soy flour he has to stay away from.

Good luck

or soy lecithin??? Do you find that these have soy side effects or that indeed

they are safe to use with a soy allergy?? Next thing that may be of interest

to all,: my friend just got peptide test results back from Great Plains--she

has had her son GF for 3-4 months. His results were 200 for gluten. She talked

with Dr Shaw who said he is finding this come up lately for those who are

already gluten free and believes that soy protein is almost identical to gluten

protein. Consequently, the test cant distinguish well enough between the two to

possibly not count the soy protein. However, this may be an indicator that soy

also needs to be removed from her sons diet as these proteins may also be

affecting him. I know others of you have had a similar experience with the

numbers..... maybe why.. Thank you to any who can answer my soy inquiries,
