I had purchased this item a week ago, used it on half of a watermelon and a honeydew, and had bad reactions to both after I ate them when I removed the plastic, was fine after I originally ate the half to begin with.

Use it all the time John and no problems, odds are it would be caused by something else.  If I eat melon or tomato by themselves its fine but if I have it after  something with tomato it really screws up my insides.

good luck

Well Im really new to this, Im just so glad I dont have to do this alone anymore. Just narrowing it down has been difficult, just a tiny bit of soy puts me in a fog and my IQ drops 50% with a cut of panic attacks during the start, time until it passes out of me. Im really not sure if its just soy and gluten. hope I dont have anymore to add. THIS SITE ROCKS!

I love love love Stretch-Tite. But make sure you don't use it in the microwave because it contains the "bad plastic" that will leach chemicals into your food when heated.

I have trouble with soy. But I have to admit, I can't find Stretch-Tite where I live so I am now using (believe it or not) Safeway brand. It has that same fantastic cling and it SAYS microwavable, but I don't use ANY plastic in the microwave period.

 

I think your problem may just be that you haven't healed yet. All of us at first had good days and bad days. On the bad days foods that were fine for us the day before would "make us sick". In other words, on a bad day it wouldn't matter what you ate, you'd be sick.

 

Have you read the Newbie 101 thread in the coping section? If not, go read it. It will teach you about cross-contamination and so much more.

 

Good luck and I hope you're feeling better soon.

I'm sorry you got sick.  It is really hard to tell what is causing a reaction, especially at first.  Personally, I like removing as many possibilities as I can so that I can more easily know what the problem is.  One thing that you could do is to put the melon in  deep bowl and put the stretch tite over that so that it doesn't touch the melon.  I hope that you feel better soon.

It looks like it may be just a detox when starting the diet of fruits and veg, But then again I have yet to use the Stretch since then.

      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.

      symptoms.

      @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...

      Do keep in mind that most gluten free flours are not enriched nor fortified with vitamins and minerals like gluten containing flours are required to do.

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.

Deficiency symptoms of B vitamins resemble gastrointestinal symptoms when after eating gluten.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a form of Thiamine deficiency.   Do talk to your doctors about supplementing with essential nutrients while on the gluten free diet, especially if you're consuming processed foods.
