Question 1

Accepted Answer

Formula milk: takes the priority, you can feed your baby right away if it is time for feeding, unless full and doesn't want to have more, you can wait and re-introduce after a little while, wish you both wellness

Question 2

hi doctor.can i eat mix powder of egg white powder,wheat germ powder,formula baby instead protein powder  for volume muscle?

Accepted Answer

Sounds unpleasant...: To increase muscle mass you need to increase weights when you strength train. Adequate protein is important in your diet - but no concoction is going to give you the gains you want without you doing the work.  I would suggest that lean meats would be a more appetizing way to meet the protein requirements.

Question 3

can you eat shredded wheat if you have gout?

Accepted Answer

Gout: Shredded wheat doesn't usually cause gout.  Usually meat, chocolate, beer and wine are the most common causes.

Question 4

should i eat wheat or grains or not?

Accepted Answer

Yes, unless...: Yes, eat grains, unless one's body does not do well with grains (such as having an allergy to certain grains). Humans evolved over thousands of years with grains in their diet, so the human body generally likes grains.

Question 5

can celiacs eat anything with wheat?

Accepted Answer

No: If there is a diagnosis of celiac disease, avoid gluten containing food. Wheat, barley, brewer yeast, malt, and rye are main source of gliten and are to be avoided.

Question 6

what amount wheat germ am i allowed to eat per day?

Accepted Answer

52 calories per 2TBL: Wheat germ doesn’t have an exact daily recommendation. You may need to start out with a small amount, such as 1 tablespoon a day.  Wheat germ can help you meet your fiber needs, which is favorable for regularity, but disruptive for bowel functions, if you don’t normally consume fiber. For every 1,000 calories you get from food, you need 14 grams of fiber.

Question 7

what foods can i eat when avoiding gluten and wheat?

Accepted Answer

Gluten free diet: I'd recommend that you research the following website for a thorough list of gluten free foods. The list is exhaustive but very informative. Good luck. www.celiac.com/gluten-free food list.

Question 8

celiac sprue:  can you ever eat products that "may contain wheat"?

Accepted Answer

Exciting development: Alternatives to a gluten-free diet may soon be available--engineering gluten-free grains, decreasing intestinal permeability by blocking epithelial zonulin receptor on small bowel surface, inducing tolerance to ingested gluten with a vaccine, & degrading gliadin peptides using probiotics with endopeptidases or with transglutaminase inhibitors. Reference: gastroent & hepatol, sept, 2012; 8(9): 582.

Question 9

is it ok for my child a 5month old to eat once a day a cerelac wheat?.

Accepted Answer

Wheat cereal: At this age he may eat wheat cereal once a day.It is not advised for younger children because it can cause allergic reactions such as vomiting, diarrhea, colicky pain or skin rashes. If any of these symptoms affect your child, i would stop and try feeding cereal one or two months later.

Question 10

what happens if you're allergic to wheat is it still possible you shouldn't eat other gluten?

Accepted Answer

Probably: It really depends on which protein in wheat you are allergic to.  If you are allergic to gluten then you need to avoid all gluten.  If you are not allergic to gluten but are allergic to wheat then no.  See an allergist to help you sort this out.
