I'm so glad you have given up soy since you have thyroid disease too. It is nothing to mess around with. I'm coming off of an attack of accute thyroiditis and it is not nice stuff, takes almost 6 months to get better and in the mean time you flip-flop from hypo to hyper and back and forth.
ANYTHING we can do to keep our thyroid levels stable is worth it...........same as keeping IBS stable.
I'm like you in that if I have soluble fiber and a lactaid a LITTLE dairy doesn't trigger me. But an entire glass of milk would. I tested this one time. Drank 2 glasses of milk with out S. fiber or lactaid and boy did it nail me...........pains galore!!!
Keep up the good work Daisy......Have you ever tried oat milk..it's good too, (and great for cooking since it will thicken) but I've come to like the almond even better since a glass has soooo many less calories than the rice. The chocolate flavored is GOOD too.
