Help Me Find The Gluten

OK- I felt fine yesterday.

I ate turkey chili with:

Green Mtn. Gringo salsa

Goya red kidney beans

Cabot cheddar cheese

McCormick taco seasoning

a Glutino blueberry bar.

Cape Cod reduced fat potato chips

organic corn tortillas (forget the brand but could look it up if I had to)

Sunmaid dried prunes and apricots

The new stuff on this list really is the Cape Cod chips, the corn tortillas (new brand) and the Sunmaid dried fruit. Everything else I've had before and been fine with. Has anyone ever had a problem with the Cape cod chips or Sun Maid dried fruits? I know there's always a chance it was CC since I am sensitive to anything processed in a wheat facility.

This "glutening" feels kind of strange. It came on a little differently than the others. I felt a little nauseous this morning. Ate some prunes. Felt OK. And then I just fell asleep hard at like 11:30 for two hours. I rarely ever have that happen. Now i'm up, my head hurts and my stomach is gurgling away. something's not adding up. All i know is I feel yucky! :(:unsure:

Aren't you trying to get pregnant? I think I remember you talking about that a while ago...just a suggestion :unsure:

B--Sorry you feel bad today :( . I don't have any experience with the chips, but I do eat Sun Maid Dates all the time and never have a problem. Do you think it might be CC with the chips? I had that happen to me with Utz. Another thought--are you OK with soy? I know that Glutino uses soy flour in some things. That's all I can think of--feel better! :)

francelajoie- I am but it's definitely not that :( I haave my friend right now and this feels like a virus- my whole body hurts.

Thank you both for your well wishes. patti- I think I am OK with soy. I try not to eat a lot of it but haven't noticed problems in small amounts.

I'm actually wondering if maybe I have a virus coming on too. Ugh!

Just found this on Gluten-free in San Diego:

Cape Cod Potato Chips

11/05

The following is from an email that was sent 11/07/05 by Farrell Souza in Customer Service:

Our Cape Cod No Salt, Salted, Robust Russet, and Reduced Fat Potato Chips are gluten free. The only ingredients are the potatoes, oil and salt (except on the no salt). Our Cape Cod Sea Salt & Vinegar,

Nantucket Spice, Reduced Fat Fresh Garden Herb and Jalapeno & Cheddar Potato Chips are also gluten free. However, we do produce seasoned items, such as Beachside (formerly called Firecracker) Barbecue, that does contain gluten (the gluten is in the seasoning) at the same time (on different machines, in the same room).

Our unseasoned items are produced on the same packaging lines as the seasoned items. However, we do wash and sanitize our equipment between production runs of gluten and gluten free containing products.

We do not use seasoning in the room when we run the russets.

I've had a problem with Sunmaid Dried raisens, but not sure it was gluten, or an intollerance. I don't eat them anymore anyway, and dry our own fruit now. We have a couple of cherry trees and they make wonderful dehydrated cherry raisens.

Maybe it is a virus--you said it feels 'different'. Right now, here in NJ, there are stomach viruses going around and affecting so many people, they actually closed a high school on Friday so they could disinfect!

Wow! They closed a high school? That's crazy! My sister's whole family just had it. But it's weird- when i woke up this a.m. I felt fine, ate some Sunsweet Prunes (I thought it was Sun Maid) and about an hour later thought I was goiong to die. Feeling a little better now. just frustrated because i was having a good run and now I feel like crawling back into my bubble. :(

Well - prunes will do that to you anyway :rolleyes: Could it be that you're sensitive to sulfites in the dried fruit? Sometimes I think that gets me. And I'm always more sensitive when my "friend" is here too!

Feel better soon!!

I recently realized i get very sick from certain types of dried fruit-- i havent totally figured it out yet but i can say for sure that dried apricots, mangos and a few others make me woefully ill...feels like a gluten rxn but a little different...debilitating nonetheless. Strangest thing is i eat dried blueberries, cranberries and raisins daily w/ no problem whatsoever. But when i mentioned it to my mom she said she has the same problem, so who knows-- i dont think it is sulfites b/c i drink wine like its my job and never have a rxn!

Anyway, maybe try not eating the dried fruit for a few days and see if that helps. Feel better!!!

That is interesting, I have been wondering if Sunmaid raisins were also giving me grief.

Mookie- That's ghod to know. This was my firsy foray into dried fruits besides dried cranberries. i figured i'd branch out and try prunes, apricots and figs. i think the apricots were OK but I think it was the prunes. I don't think I have a problem with sulfites as I drink wine occasionally with no ill effects. Oh well- the prunes tasted DISGUSTING anyway. I was choking them down. Just chucked them in the trash this morning :P

Thanks everyone for your help!

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      This article does not address migraines at all. Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers. With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably.

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress...

With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
