I have figured out what my "load" is - the amount of sals I can tolerate. I can eat a small amount of sweet potato a day. That would be one small one, one half of a medium one, or one third of a really large one. I can eat broccoli too, but not on the same day as sweet potato. That is about the only high sals food I eat. The rest is meat, cheese, cauliflower, rice, peeled white potatoes.

 

Everyone has a different load tolerance. The secret is to find out what yours is. Cut out all sals for a while, then pick your favorite high or medium sals food and eat just a little bit. If you don't react, wait a day, then after a day off from sals, eat some more. It takes a long time to figure it out, but it's worth it.

I have yet to find the urge to stop drinking tea and coffie, I have no problem resting from fruit and veggies because that makes me so sick. I know I need a rest for few weeks, just waiting for the teabag to stop jumping in my cup (so rude).

I didn't give up my coffee. I will NEVER give up my coffee!!!! I miss blueberries so much and I bet if I gave up coffee I'd be able to tolerate them once in a while, but even my beloved blueberries aren't worth giving up coffee for.

 

One thing to keep in mind - after you have been gluten-free for a while you might be able to tolerate more things. Don't give up hope. :)

Are you allergic to salicylates or NSAIDs (e.g. Ibuprofen)?  I am, but I'm able to eat foods containing salicylates.  I guess I'll remain watchful.  I supposed moderation and rotating foods is helpful.  

 

My NSAID/Aspirin allergy has caused anaphylaxis (facial/eye, throat, tongue swelling) which was very frightening!

I'm not sure if my problem with asperin and other NSAIDs is a true allergy or just an intolerance. The last time I had any I was so sick anyway I couldn't tell. (Rash, extreme pain, and a cold verging on bronchitis.) I DO know that my jaw pain (unrelated to celiac) becomes UNBEARABLE when I am exposed and my psoriasis flares badly.

 

It's been a year since I have varied the sals in my diet. I know that a little over a year ago organic blueberries made me sick. MAYBE I could eat them now but the pain is so severe when I do react that I just don't have the heart to try.

Mmm blueberries.  :wub:  I used to eat them every day.

I've been testing abit and it has been a horrible week for me. I am afraid to test iceberg :wacko:

Maby if I would just drink coffie or tea, that would probable make a difference :)

Testing isn't very reliable. The best way to test is to do an elimination diet. Have you been to Open Original Shared Link ? They give lists of foods with their sals levels. For example, yes, spices are usually high in sals but you CAN have garlic. And although most fruits and all berries have rather high levels, you can eat bananas and pears if you peel those pears thickly. (The only reason I don't eat either of those is because it is almost impossible to get decent produce where I live.)

Yes, I am going by that list now. Or starting monday (I don't know how many mondays I've planned to start). I am allergic to bananas, and they make my colon puke (it feels like it). Where I live the pears are unripe and usually damaged before they become soft.

 

Garlic and onoins make me sick, eating garlic gives me flu like symptoms and I can't even eat garlic diffused oil (wich is supposed to be safe).

 

I am testing some things on the list, like iceberg, canned pears, cashews ect. Or I will this week when I am better.

 

Thanks for beeing here, I really appreciate the help :)

Hi... new to the board.

 

Yes I found that too. I have been intolerant to salicylic acid forever. As an adult with me it only seems to be apples, oranges and apricots that are guaranteed to take me over daily tolerance... the other suspects such as tomatoes seem fine.

 

HOWEVER before I was diagnosed coeliac I would occasionally get hayfever symptoms at times from eating a much lesser load. (That's how the salicylic issue manifests with me.)

 

Since going gluten-free I can eat a whole apple or drink two pints of cider, so I assume these two autoimmune disorders must somehow encourage each other to misbehave...

 

regards

Zack

Hey just seen this thread... Just wondered what symptoms you all get with you saly intolerances/allergies??? As I saw oranges and tomatoes included somewhere I wonder whether what I have could be a saly intolerance?? I became severely asthmatic to oranges lemons limes and tomatoes after going gluten-free. I assumed it was just a citrus thing? I thought a saly intolerance produced things like bone and muscle aches, gut troubles etc.... Hmmmmm

      My mo,ther married a bread making when I was 4

      By Jane878 · Posted

      By the time I was 5 I had my first auto0immune disorder, Migraine headaches, with auras to blind me, and vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound. I was 5 years old, and my stepfather would have pizza night, milling his own flour, making thick cheesy gluten pizza, that I would eat and the next day, I would have serious migraines, and my mother & stepfather did nothing about my medical problems. When I was 17 in my first year at college, I was diagnosed with my 2nd known auto-immune disorder, Meniere's disease. I was a elite athlete, a swimmer, and soccer player. And once again my parents didn't think anything of understanding why I had a disorder only older people get. Now after my mother passed from Alzheimer's disease she also suffered with living with gluten. She had a rash for 30 years that nobody could diagnose. She was itchy for 45 years total. My brother had a encapsulated virus explodes in his spleen and when this happened his entire intestines were covered with adhesions, scar tissue and he almost lost his life. He has 5 daughters, and when I finally was diagnosed after being pregnant and my body went into a cytokine storm, I lost my chance to have children, I ended up having Hashimoto's disease, Degenerative Disc disease, and my body started to shut down during my first trimester. I am 6ft tall and got down to 119lbs. My husband and I went to a special immunologist in Terrace, California. They took 17 vials of blood as we flew there for a day and returned home that evening. In 3 weeks, we had the answer, I have Celiac disease. Once this was known, only my father and husband made efforts to change their way of feeding me. At the family cabin, my stepfather & mother were more worried that I would ruin Thanksgiving Dinner. It wasn't until one of my cousins was diagnosed with Celiac disease. They finally looked into getting Gluten Free flour and taking measures to limit "gluten" in meals. He did nothing but ask for me to pay for my own food and wi-fi when I came to the cabin to stay after our house burned down. When he informed my mother, they proceeding to get into a physical fight and she ended up with a black eye. The is just more trauma for me. Sam had no interest in telling the truth about what he wanted. He lied to my mother that he had asked my husband if I could pay for "food" when he asked Geoffrey if I had money to pay for my wi-fi. My mother hates when he spends so much time on the computer so he lied and said I could pay for my own food. I will remind you I weighed 119lbs at this time. (At 6ft) that is a very sick looking person. Neither parent was worried about my weight, they just fought about how cheap my stepfather was. As my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2014. He had her sign over the will to a trust and added his children. He had no testimonial capacity at the time, so she signed without proper papers. Making this Trust null and void. When I gave my brother my childhood home, my mother stated I would be getting an equal part of inheritance to the house on Race. It currently worth 2.0 million $. I got nothing, and my stepfather has since disowned me b/c of my claim and he knows that my mother would never have left it uneven between my biological brother and myself. She sat me and my husband down, as we lived at the Race Street house and treated and took care of it as our own. My brother took over b/c he was going through a horrific divorce and needed a home so he could get a better custody deal with his soon to be ex-wife who was a Assist DA for Denver. She used the girls against him, and he & I were the primary caregivers. We, Judd and I spent the most time with them pre the divorce. Once Judd moved into the house, he threw all of my mother, grandmother and my family heirlooms out to the Goodwill. Nobody told my mother about this as she was going through cancer treatment and had Alzheimer's disease in her mother and her sister. My stepfather and biological brother took advantage of this matter, as I called a "family council" that my brother just never could make it to at the last moment. All of the furnishing, kitchen ware, everything was in the house my brother just moved into. He had had 2 weddings, I chose to elope b/c my stepfather ruined my brother's first wedding by talking about his relationship with my brother in front of my dad and his entire family, insulting him and having my grandfather leave the ceremony. It was a disaster. My stepfather just plays dumb and blames my father for the slight. I was the only child not to have a wedding. So, my mother and stepfather never had to pay for a thing. My mother had had an agreement with my father he'd pay for college and all medical issues with their kids, myself and Judd. So truly my mother never had to pay for anything big for me in her entire life. I am looking for anyone that has had a similar story, where they grew up in a household that had a baker that regularly milled flour and ate gluten. What happened to you? DId you suffer from different auto-immune diseases b/c of living with a baker using "gluten" Please let me know. I have been looking into legal ways to get my stepfather to give me what my mother had promised, and he erased. Thank you for listening to my story. Jane Donnelly

      Blood results

      By trents · Posted

      Possibly gluten withdrawal. Lot's of info on the internet about it. Somewhat controversial but apparently gluten plugs into the same neuro sensors as opiates do and some people get a similar type withdrawal as they do when quitting opiates. Another issue is that gluten-free facsimile flours are not fortified with vitamins and minerals as is wheat flour (in the U.S. at least) so when the switch is made to gluten-free facsimile foods, especially if a lot of processed gluten-free foods are being used as substitutes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies can result. There is also the possibility that she has picked up a virus or some but that is totally unrelated to going gluten-free.

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Celiac and allergic to common subs and adds in prepared foods

      By DAR girl · Posted

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.
