I Think I Might Have Corn Back!

Not that I want to eat a lot of corn products anyway, but I bought some potato chips from the grocery store that said they were cooked in "sunflower oil, and/or corn oil". Now maybe this bag was just sunflower oil, but I didn't get sick. Or it could be that, as I have read, there is no corn protein in corn oil. But I'm ready to buy some Ore Ida fries and try them. (After a while. I still get joint pains if I eat too many potatoes.)

 

And the pizza sauce I ate yesterday didn't have any corn syrup, but it did have citric acid listed. I know citric acid is not ALWAY from corn but most of the time it is. Yeah, the joint pain was worse this morning because tomatoes are a nightshade and I didn't give myself enough time after binging on potatoes a couple of weeks ago, but I had none of my corn symptoms at all.

 

If I could get corn back it would make my life a thousand times easier. As I said, I wouldn't go overboard because I don't want to eat a lot of GMOs, but I could buy bagged salads! I could buy less expensive ice cream! Oh, the whole WORLD of different foods it would open up for me!!!

Congrats! I am keeping my fingers crossed for you!

I have been allergic to eggs, nuts, garlic and milk forever. Then I keep questioning myself, "maybe it is just an intolerance and not an allergy". "Maybe my allergist was wrong and I finally grew out of my allergies even though my siblings and nieces have the same food allergies and they have not grown out of them yet." So, I started eating cheese, no major tummy issues anymore (like nausea, indigestion within seconds, vomiting), except for a bit of indigestion and a tiny bit of nausea. Unfortunately, my nose still clogged up (the horrors of mucus) and I got severe body aches even taking an antihistamine! So, I think I may no longer have a lactose issue (no bloating) but I am still allergic to milk proteins! Darn!

I am back to dairy free. My egg and nut experiments have failed too. The good news is that my reactions are no longer swift and brutal. My immune system maybe calming down thanks to my celiac disease dx and as a result, a gluten free diet.

I'm wondering if the grapeseed extract has anything to do with it. I've been taking it daily for the past few months. It is an anti-inflammatory. Because I can't take aspirin or other NSAIDS, I thought this would be useful. A friend of mine suggested it. He is 80 and in perfect health. Anyway, my jaw thing ALWAYS acts up when I either get sick or upset. I had a cold a couple of weeks ago and on top of that I found out my landlord at the shop forgot to pre-pay and lock in the price on propane. (That means if the price skyrockets like it did last year I'll be paying massive amounts for heat this year. :angry: )

 

Anyway, I was sick and I've been stressed, but my jaw hasn't flared up. I attribute it to the grapeseed. Maybe that has something to do with getting corn back too.

You may have corn oil back. From what I have heard, the oils are a bit different than the actual grain or nut. For example, some people with a peanut allergy seem to be able to tolerate peanut oil. Not sure who would be brave enough to test it? I know a kid that had the peanut oil tested in the hospital and he was fine with it. Expands your world a bit.

Yeah, and I have read that corn syrup is made from corn starch which has no protein in it either, so MAYBE...

      Digestive symptoms yet negative celiac screening

      You may know this already, but in addition to what you've described, you may also want to get a genetic test. About 1/3 of people have one of the genetic markers that are necessary (but not sufficient) for getting celiac. If your son is one of the 2/3 of people that don't have the marker then it is almost certain he does not have celiac. (The genetic test...

      Fiber-Metabolizing Bacteria Could Boost Gut Health in Celiac Disease

      That is really interesting, especially because it points to how the gut microbiome may still stay altered in celiac disease even after going gluten-free. The idea that a fiber like inulin could help feed beneficial bacteria and reduce inflammation is encouraging, although I imagine some people with celiac disease or other gut issues might still need to introduce...

      Digestive symptoms yet negative celiac screening

      @Irishgirl5, it does sound possible for those numbers to fluctuate a bit, especially when they are near the upper end of normal, but ongoing symptoms still make it understandable that you are concerned. The fact that his tissue transglutaminase immunoglobulin A is still technically in range does not always make the picture feel any clearer, especially with...

      trehalose intolerance

      @Stegosaurus, that is really interesting, and it sounds like you have done a lot of careful digging into what might be driving your symptoms. The connection between dysbiosis, food reactions, and specific additives or sugars is clearly complicated, but your point about hidden ingredients and individual tolerance makes a lot of sense. It is also encouraging...

The idea that a fiber like inulin could help feed beneficial bacteria and reduce inflammation is encouraging, although I imagine some people with celiac disease or other gut issues might still need to introduce it carefully depending on tolerance. It definitely feels like an area worth watching, because anything that could help support healing beyond just avoiding gluten would be valuable.

      @Irishgirl5, it does sound possible for those numbers to fluctuate a bit, especially when they are near the upper end of normal, but ongoing symptoms still make it understandable that you are concerned. The fact that his tissue transglutaminase immunoglobulin A is still technically in range does not always make the picture feel any clearer, especially with tummy pain, nausea, constipation, and diarrhea still going on. Anxiety can certainly add to gastrointestinal symptoms, but I can see why you would not want to assume that explains everything. It sounds like keeping an eye on things and being cautious with diet changes makes sense, especially if symptoms continue. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

The connection between dysbiosis, food reactions, and specific additives or sugars is clearly complicated, but your point about hidden ingredients and individual tolerance makes a lot of sense. It is also encouraging that you found something, like the fermented Florastor approach, that seems to help you tolerate certain foods better. Posts like this are helpful because they remind people that sometimes the reaction is not just about the obvious ingredient on the label.
