Alcohol Senstivity/intolerance/issues?

Hi all,

I tried cooking this week with wine for the first time. Very yummy. But, I think it may be causing me issues. I am having some tummy symptoms and am wondering if it is related to this new cooking technique. I haven't had anything else new in my diet this week, so I doubt I was glutened - though I guess you can never rule out contamination. Does anyone have a sensitivity/intolerance/allergy to alcohol or sulfites? What are the typical symptoms for you? Atlhough I do drink a glass or two of wine on the weekends, it is usually at home and late in the evening, so I haven't noticed much in the way of issues there, though I may be falling asleep before they hit. Just hoping I am not experiencing another gluten set back.

Thanks for the help.

I have no problems with wine or sulphites.

If the wine hasn't bothered you before, then you may have got glutened or you may be reacting to something else, like dairy. I developed a dairy intolerance at about the same time and some of my symptoms are similar to my gluten reaction symptoms. I would double check all the ingredients that you are cooking with, and make sure that you are using separate condiment jars.

Thanks for the suggestions. I am dairy, egg, and corn free as well. My husband (not gluten-free and thinks I am overly sensitive) sometimes helps with cooking or washing dishes. However, I don't think he is as aware as he needs to be and the source of contamination in any cooking likely resulted from him (ex. Me "Did you wash your hands before starting to cook?" Him - evil look. etc, etc, etc). Going to be a household full of thrills for years to come, I can see it now. <_< I guess I will have to spend the rest of my life in the kitchen cooking and cleaning and never getting any help. This disease is soooo freaking frustrating!!!!

My tummy feels better now and I know I was glutened last week by a hair product, so it could have been left overs from that.......so possibly a false alarm.

I can't handle red wine - severe allergic reaction, even if cooked in food. Sucks as my hubby makes WONDERFUL sauces (ex sous chef)

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!

      I checked consumer labs that I'm a member of they independently check products for safely and claims the wolfs was rated great and bobs redmill buckwheat cereal. Ultra low gotten no dangerous levels of arsenic heavy metals, mold, yeast etc. plus they mention to refrigerate. I wonder if the raw buckwheat they rinse bc it's not toasted like kasha. Toasted removes the grassy taste I have to try the one you mentioned. I also bought Qia which is a quinoa mixed got great reviews.
