Rice Dream Mistake :(

I have been doing so good, but last night I was starving, and on my way to a meeting I stopped and got some envirkids rice bars and a packet of juice size boxes with what I thought was soy milk. I realized it was rice dream, with .02% barley while I was drinking it. I hoped that .02% wasn't enough and finished it ebcause I was starving. An hour later I had a splitting headache and body pain. My tummy was grumbling like mad, but I didn't have D or C. I still have the headache and stiff body, and I suspect I will till next week.

I just wanted to vent - I get so mad at myself when I mess up. It is just such a set back over the tiniest about of gluten. I know, I know, every bit hurts, but it is just so hard to be so vigilent. Now my Sunday School class wants to go out to eat to where else but Sclotzsky's. I am thinking I will not eat out at all anymore. I'll go with, but no more of it. It is just never safe.

Julie - I'm a newer celiac and I also got sick after drinking rice dream. I didn't know it wasn't gluten free and about 2 days after drinking it regularly I got diarrhea. This was my first reaction since doing pretty well for 4 months. It took me about 7 days to get totally back to normal. What a pain in the &*(*&^....

Umm why would there be .02% of malt in it? What could that possibly do to the drink (besides make it unsafe for us? )

Apparently is in the process of making it - they have it on their packaging.

I don't know the specifics, but I believe they use barley in the filtering of the rice/water mixture, possibly for the subtle flavor changes it gives the liquid.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.
