Has Anyone Had A Problem With Eating Turkey Meat?

My husband was recently diagnosed and has been gluten free since march of this year. He has always had a problem with milk, beef, turkey, and pork but since going gluten free he no longer gets sick with this food except the turkey. At first he thought it was the ground turkey we were eating so I changed to beef but I made roasted turkey breast and he still got sick. He gets severe gas and diarrhea. The brand is Jennie-O and from what I checked it is gluten-free but I could be wrong. Does anyone else has this problem???

Is the turkey breasted processed? Meaning is it nroated/prepared prior to puchase or contain ingredients other than Turkey? Some prepared meat contains seasoning or preservatives which can be difficult to tolerate --- it is not always gluten that is tough for the healing gut to process. Perhaps try baking a piece of plain turkey....while not as likely...there may simply be an intolerance of turkey.

Most or all Jenni  O turkey products are gluten free.  Maybe he just can't eat turkey?  Maybe its an ingredient you season it with?  Or always eat with it?

try getting some turkey straight from a local butcher if you can (no packages, processed stuff, etc) and see how he does on that. If he's fine, it might be contamination or processing in the turkey you usually have. If he's not, then he could just not be able to tolerate turkey. Or maybe it's taking him longer to get back.

 

Hope you can figure it out.

Could be the gut is still just healing and for whatever reason he can't eat it.  leave it for a couple of months then try again.

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and countertops. And what about that toaster you mentioned?

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure.  These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract.  Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop.  Ataxia is just one of over two hundred symptoms of Celiac Disease. Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.

      @Rebeccaj,  When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air.  Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract.   If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies.

      ok thanks for your advice. But my question was what happens when someone you know in a house is cooking pasta or toast that's flour  Airbourne without eating.?

      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health.  Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption.  Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms.   Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming in macrophages https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39890689/#:~:text=Our mechanistic study revealed that,necessary to protect against colitis. "Conclusion and implications: Our study provides evidence linking thiamine deficiency with proinflammatory macrophage activation and colitis aggravation, suggesting that monitoring thiamine status and adjusting thiamine intake is necessary to protect against colitis."
