Don't You Hate It When...

You get that familiar stomach pain, then the bloating.......and you start to feel tired and confused.....

and you know you ate only food made by yourself, from fresh ingredients......but you realise that you just touched paper bags with sandwiches and cakes in them and a "for certain" gluteny table top, then ate your safe "finger foods" without washing your hands....

 

Sitting here in pain, wondering if I just glutened myself, or if it is just possible that the symptoms I am feeling are from the fact that I forgot to take my digestive enzymes when I ate my home made nut/seed bars.

Time will tell.

Woe is me. :-(

 

Oh, and edited to add: The irony of this is that is that this was at a meeting I had arranged with my brother, to tell him he should get tested for celiac - ROFLMAO

Huh. You have the same screen name (minus the numbers) and I've never seen it anywhere else. :)

Most of my days have been that way lately. Like thinking and doing just take too much effort. It does not bode well for my winter as it definitely gets worse in the winter. *sigh*

Nope, not me. But I just had a look and it's my kind of thing, I am already VERY frugal......not much there that I don't already do, lol, but always eager to find something new.

Well, so far I'm so bloated I've had to change my clothes, pain is bad,  burst into tears when my hubby arrived home (no reason!), burnt the dinner and walked into the door frame - so, it's a glutening then. Doh!

 

Lesson learned - wash my hands before eating-every time.

Oh dear! I hope you're feeling better soon! Like any one of those symptoms aren't bad enough on their own....but then to walk into the door frame along with it. Goodness.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
