Looking for Sugar Free and Gluten Free

EasterLily

Hello everyone. Since starting the gluten free diet, I have suddenly become very sensitive to sugar. It makes me extremely nauseous. But I really enjoy pancakes and waffles, but the syrup   - which is gluten free - has been make me sick to my stomach, so I am assuming it's from the sugar. I have been trying to find a sugar free/gluten free syrup but I am finding the sugar free versions contain gluten. Does anyone have any suggestions? I can't eat that much to begin with during healing because I seem to super sensitive to everything. Thanks in advance.

Try real maple syrup.  ?

Oh, the waffles and pancakes?  There might be additives (e.g. Xanthan Gum), etc. added to the gluten-free flours or the flour blend (e.g. Tapioca, potato) that you might be intolerant to.    These are processed foods.  Try sticking to a Whole Foods diet so you can identify intolerances during the early stages of healing.  

What to eat for breakfast?  Try dinner.  Sweet potato, rice, banana, chicken....whatever!

Try the brands Waldens Farms and Natures Hallow

Waldens makes a pancake syrup, blue berry, strawberry, Carmel, and chocolate syrups. Now they also make jams but I really dislike their jams.

Natures Hallow makes Honey, maple syrup, and jams really expensive but quite good they use xylitol in theirs now there is a introduction curve with xylitol to your body. First introduction can cause gas issues til you get used to it.

Polmar Jam is great and so is Smuckers in the Sugar Free versions I use them all the time.

I know the pain of the sugar issues, I  have UC and can not have sugars  or carbs. BUT I  CRAVE THEM, these alternatives have helped. I also use a blend of monk fruit and eyerythritol or xylitol in alot of my foods or use Swirve Sweetener in my homemade icecreams.

Thanks for the information. I didn't think about additives. I suspected the syrup because when I eat sugary snacks like candy, ice cream, ect.. I get very nauseous which has never happened before. Eating any type of "meal" right now is difficult because the nausea and bloating are so bad I can only eat a little at a time. Withdrawal has begun, so I'm a bit more nauseous and bloated, I have diarrhea something fierce and I am lightheaded, dizzy yet starving. :(

The enzymes to digest lactose (milk sugar) is released from the villi tips.  If you have intestinal damage, you may be lactose intolerant (hopefully, it is just temporary).  So, consider skipping the ice cream.  Choose lactose free versions instead or dairy that contains the least lactose, like hard cheeses or yogurt.  

Also, a damaged gut can respond to well-cooked foods.  Think stews and soups until you see improvement.

      Pear Bread

      I adapted this to be a gluten-free recipe from www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/autumn-pear-bread. Wonderful flavor profile, great texture, fairly easy to make.

      Help!!

      I agree with Trents' reply. In addition ... Your post does not say what you did with your child's diet after the blood test and prior to the endoscopy. Usually the Dr advises a "gluten challenge" prior to the test so that the inflammation is more pronounced and easier to see. On the other hand, if they didn't mention this, you may have reasonably restricted...

      @Jmartes71, I understand how frustrated you feel. I have been disappointed with the medical system myself. Have you read my story in my blog? What can we do to help you get better? Nutritional deficiencies are common in Celiac disease. Have you been checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies? Which supplements are you taking?

      It would seem then that your next step should be a biopsy to check for damage to the villous lining of the small bowel. But you must not reduce gluten intake until that is performed else healing will take place in that area of the intestines and the biopsy results would be invalidated.

      I adapted this to be a gluten-free recipe from www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/autumn-pear-bread. Wonderful flavor profile, great texture, fairly easy to make. The almond flavor from the almond flour complements the pear flavor. Ingredients 1 cup almond flour 1 cup sweet rice flour 1 cup millet flour 2 Tablespoons tapioca flour 1 cup sugar 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 6 tablespoons cold butter 3 large eggs, room temperature 3/8 cup buttermilk (1 tsp white vinegar + 3/8 cup milk) 2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 ½ cup finely chopped ripe pears (1-2 med/large pears. You could peel them but I don't) Directions (optional) cut butter into pats, place on saucer in the refrigerator while prepping other ingredients In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. (I use a whisk to mix) Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (I use pastry blender) Combine eggs, buttermilk and vanilla (I use same whisk); stir into flour mixture just until moistened. (I use a mixing spoon) Fold in pears. (mixing spoon) Spoon into 2 greased 5 x 8 inch loaf pans Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans on to wire rack. Allow to cool completely. Not sure how long you can keep this at room temperature because it gets eaten quickly

      Welcome, @anya22, Can you tell us more about your diet?   How much gluten containing foods did you eat?  What kinds of gluten containing foods did you eat?  What has your high calorie diet consisted of?   Some gluten containing foods contain less gluten than others.  Cakes and cookies may have less gluten than something like deep dish pizza.   Glad you're here!
