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...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin. In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott. Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
