For people reading this, a clarification - SOY is not gluten.  Soy does not contain gluten.  The OP might have a separate issue with soy.

Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well.

I read this and ran to check my cans of tuna again...they read gluten-free!

They do contain soy though. Hope you feel better soon.  :)

You are so right! I think I have a problem with Soy! I noticed another time I ate something started having a problem look at the ing. and it had soy. I automatically thought "it doesn't have Gluten" so I kinda dismissed it. It feels as tho I have been glutened. But Soy is bothering me.

To be clear - You originally put this in the "coping" with Celiac disease section and claimed that soy "glutened" you.  As soy isn't considered a "gluten containing grain" this is a very misleading and false statement.

Yes I did Originally put this with "Coping" with Celiac disease section that said Soy "Glutened" me. I got it from this article looking up why I would of had a problem. Open Original Shared Link . It says 

 

Soybeans commonly are grown in rotation with wheat crops. That means the farmers use the same fields to grow soy and wheat, along with the same combines to harvest them, the same storage facilities to keep them and the same trucks to transport them to market. As a result, soy can be subject to Open Original Shared Link— in some cases, lots of gluten cross-contamination.

 

For example, a 2010 study by celiac dietitian Tricia Thompson on Open Original Shared Linkfound that soy was one of the worst offenders — in fact, one sample of soy flour contained a whopping2,925 parts per million of gluten (for comparison, Open Original Shared Link generally is considered "gluten-free," although many people react to even less gluten than that).

The article goes on. And there are other articles out there thats say Soy is CC'd with Gluten as much as Oats are. That's why I said I was Glutened.  I am so sorry I did put this in the wrong spot. I was told to watch that. I will.  But this is the reason I said I was Glutened.

W8in, you also MAY have gotten "corned" from the lining in the foil packet. They have stopped making that and the lining in most cans out of that BPA plastic, and now very often the plastic is made from the protein in corn. I know corn bothers you as it does me. Although if I stay "clean" I can tolerate corn starch (because there is little to no protein in it), I can't safely eat anything out of a can or foil pouch. (Nor a clear plastic bottle either.)

(my quote button is still not working - unless it's me + new computer???????????  I don't know why that would be.....)

 

anyways,w8n4, if it wasn't packed in anything, why do you think it had soy?  just plain tuna doesn't have it.  what were the ingredients in it?  those little pouches are vacuum sealed...

I'm confused, what can be a problem eating something out of a can? What does it have to do with BPA plastic and corn? I'm sensitive to corn and I eat some things out of cans every day because I have to eat vegetables and fruit so much it gets exhausting keeping produce fresh, shopping often etc. I don't think it's causing a problem, but I've never heard this before. I don't have a problem with BPA that I'm aware of, but I just became very sensitive to all fragrances in products which is completely new for me. So, I sort of don't know what I'll be sensitive to at this point. Very interested to know more about this.

FruitE, BPA's are that compound in oil based plastic that has caused such a stir in the past few years. It has been completely taken out of baby food jars and all other kid's plastic food/liquid containers, and many companies have removed it from ALL of their containers. I'm sure there are still SOME of the old ones left, but how to tell?

 

Here are a couple of articles about it. One is from the government, one is "About dot com". In the "About" article, the writer claims the new plastic is made from sugar cane, but read the comments. Most of it is from corn.

 

I read up about it after reacting to a bottle of water, and sure enough, it is the protein they use, which is why I and so many other corn intolerant people react.

I know about BPA plastic, and I thought it was a thing of the past for plastic bottles, water especially. I drink bottled water all the time and I don't think I've had trouble with it, but problems with cans having a plastic lining? That is something I haven't heard before. I'm also not familiar with corn as a possibility in plastic. I'm really surprised about that one.

 

I'm also going to have to look up more about eating things out of cans. There seems no end to doing research online since I started having all my food intolerances. Thanks for the info and the articles!

The cloudy plastic that gallons of water (and milk) usually come in are OK, at least for now. It's the crystal clear plastic that you find individual servings of water (and soda) come in that could be a problem.

I say that because It said ingredients : Tuna , soy salt. 

But it wasn't juicy and didn't need water or anything squeezed out of it.

That makes sense! I have very bad reactions to corn. I had no idea that the package itself could be a problem. It is always a guessing game! So from now on! I may either can my own Tuna , or eat it fresh! Thanks for  the info. And to the Mods I am so sorry I put this in the wrong thread. I will be very careful from now on. Sometimes It is confusing on what thread to put things in. But I will try and look very carefully before I start a thread.

      Anyone From South Africa

      Welcome to the forum, @Izelle! Normally, the diagnosis of celiac disease involves two stages.  The first stage involves a simple blood test that looks for antibodies that are pretty specific to celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the lining of the small bowel which produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood with tests specifically designed for this purpose. There are a number of these tests that can be run. Some are more specific for celiac disease and thus more reliable than others. The two most common antibody tests ordered by physicians when diagnosing celiac disease are the "total IGA" and the "tTG-IGA" test. At least these two should always be ordered. Here is a an article outlining the subject matter of celiac antibody tests:  If the tTG-IGA levels are 10x normal then it is becoming common practice in some countries to grant a celiac diagnosis on the bloodwork alone. The second stage involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to look for the damage to the small bowel lining typically caused by celiac disease's inflammatory process over time. This is usually done in response to one or more positives from the blood antibody testing and constitutes confirmation of the antibody testing to eliminate the possibility of false positives.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Hey everyone. Thanks again for your suggestions. I wanted to give an update and ask for some follow-up suggestions from you all.  So I did go through all of my food items and stopped eating things that were “gluten free” and switched over to the “certified gluten free” ones (the ones with the g symbol). I also stayed away from restaurants except once and there I ordered something raw vegan and gluten free hoping for the best. I also stayed away from oats and soy and dairy. I've also been increasing my vitamin B complex. I've been doing this for about 12 days and while I know that's not that long, I'm still getting sick. Sometimes having diarrhea. Sometimes getting headaches and having necklaces. Sometimes waking up feeling horrible brain fog. I did go to my GI doc and they did a blood test and found my TtG-IgA was in the negative range (and a lower number than I'd had before). I also had normal levels of CRP. My stool showed no elevation of calprotectin and no pathogens. My GI doc said the symptoms could be related to a gluten exposure or to IBS. I'm keeping a food diary to see if I can narrow down whats going on. I know I have good days and bad days and Im trying to isolate what makes a good day versus a bad day. Generally so far it looks like if it eat something super cautious like raw vegetables that I chopped myself into a salad and almonds, im fine but if I eat something more complex including, say, chicken and rice (even if packaged and certified gluten free or made by me with gluten free ingredients), it may not go so well. I may end up with either a headache, neck tension, brain fog, and/or diarrhea that day or the morning after. Any other thoughts or suggestions? I am planning to start tracking my foods again but I wanted to do it in more detail this time (maybe down to the ingredient level) so are there any common ingredients that celiacs have issues with that you all know of that I should track? I've got dairy, oats, soy, eggs, corn, peas, lentils on my “watch list”. Other things I should add? I'm hoping if I track for another two weeks I can maybe pin down some sensitivities. Appreciate the help and tips. Thank you so much!!

      "My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash." Are you serious? The overwhelming majority of people with confirmed celiac disease do not have the rash. It's called dermatitis herpetiformis. It is found in only about 10-15% of those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.ca/gluten-related-disorders/dermatitis-herpetiformis/ If your GI doc is operating on that piece of misinformation, I would start looking for a new GI doc because I wouldn't trust him/her in general.
