What To Eat Post Diagnosis?

Hello,

 

I recently realized that I have problems with gluten. The blood test was negative, but I went off Gluten to see if it helps and my BM became much better. I want to get a real diagnosis, but in my country is public health care, so it takes ages to get an appointment, not sure if they can even still diagnose it then, after being of Gluten for so long.

 

Unfortunately even without Gluten I still have some problems, that's how I found this forums and numerous suggestions about other foods that should be cut out. Some of those suggestions really helped. However I think it would be best to only eat foods that are really save for some time and then slowly add in more to see if they cause problems. The problem is it seems in past posts like pretty much every single food has problems. I read suggestions about cutting out: Nightshades, fructose, soy, legumes, starchy foods, sugar, dairy, fat/oil, spicy foods and processed foods. I'm not sure it's possible to do that all at the same time, except if I only eat Broccoli and Brussels sprouts.

 

What suggestions do you guys have what are the most important things to cut out and what to start eating with? So far I'm only relatively certain that I have problems with fat or oil. When I eat bacon or just fry some rice my stomach makes bad sounds and I get very tired. Is it normal that I never had a problem with oil and fat before and now that I cut out gluten I suddenly can't handle it anymore?

 

Thanks for all suggestions.

Gluten has a tendency to mask other intolerance symptoms.

 

Eat a whole foods diet, nothing processed. So basic things like meat, veggies, and fruits.

 

Please remember, not all people have issues with certain things. For one, i can handle corn and soy just fine, yet others can not.

 

I suggest that you keep  a food diary so you can try to find a pattern amongst the food that you are eating that might be causing this.

      I don't know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.

      I’m 43, just newly diagnosed with a horrible case of shingles last week . They are all over my face , around my eye, ear , all in my scalp. Lymph nodes are a mess. Ear is a mess. My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion

      There were some interesting talks, particularly Prof Ludvig Stollid's talk on therapeutics for coeliac disease.    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRcl2mPE0WdigRtJPvylUJbkCx263KF_t

      Thank you @trents for letting me know you experience something similar thanks @knitty kitty for your response and resources.  I will be following up with my doctor about these results and I’ll read the articles you sent. Thanks - I really appreciate you all.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!
