We just had hamburgers with cooked onions and boy was that a bad choice.

Even, Pre-D, I had a gasious problem with them, but now it is much worse. I guess I need to learn, by now.

Anyone ever react to simple onions.

I don't have a problem with onions. Now mushrooms are a different story.

Anyone have a food come out looking EXACTLY the same as the way it did when it went in? :o

I have a friend who's non-celiac. Onions give her migraines. She can do shallots and garlic but no onions.

Oh yes...corn!! I mean you would think I didn't even chew the damn thing. Sometimes lettuce, but that is hit or miss, and it's usually atleast shredded on the way out. LOL!

Alright, I have to confess. Onions do do nasty things to me. But after I went into the living room where hubby was watching tv, I asked him if I night eat. He said what in the world are you talking about.

After I went to the bathroom with nausia and bad cramping, I had the big D. I knew that onions were the culprit. But, very stange thing in the lou, ripply edged things floating. Now, I'm used to things floating, but this was not normal.

He had cut his finger, and covered it up with some sort of clear tape. Upon showering, he took it off and put it in the lou.

After being gluten this weekend, I though I had ingested plastics, or night eating. Holy Cow, I was freekin out. End of story..............but onions are really bad for me. Glad plastics are not on my diet. :blink:

My husband will eat very overcooked carrots (from can) and they can be seen the next morning in the poop. This has also happened to him - drank carrot juice and next morn had orangey stool. Also happened to him when he ate very red colored frosting from cake and next morn had redden colored stool-more like a deep rosey pink. This could possibly happen with other fruits/veggies but he won't try them to see.

He can't digest onions raw or otherwise. Not even onion or garlic powdered. too much intestinal upset from it.

Hey Debmidge! How goes it??? :)

Same thing happens here, not only with me, but with the kids. Whenever the kids drink blue KoolAid, guess what colour the BMs are the next day? A nice blue/green hue....... LOL!

Hugs!

My husband has the same problem with onions. Now we only use sweet onions for everything and he eats them fine with almost every meal (because I LOVE onions and garlic). He has learned that he cannot eat anything with onions or onion powder away from home because they use the cheap onions.

Sweet onions are less acidic and don't bother the tummy. No more smelling up the entire upstairs, no more camping in the bathroom unless he eats them out.

He has similar problems with tomatoes so we stick with the yellows most of the time for the same reason.

Try the sweet and see if that helps...

Corn for me too. And that's probably been for twenty-thirty years.

Ditto on the corn--and spinach! I don't have trouble with onions as long as they're well cooked.

No onions for me either. They kill me! Raw are the worst, especially the red ones. I once ate a tiny piece of a red onion and had such bad cramping and D that I almost went to the hospital! I won't even eat them cooked. I can't do garlic either. Powders of both are out too. I eat very bland food here! LOL!

No onions here either. The EPA has to evacuate the neighborhood. Good thing that doesn't happen with Altoids. No where else but Celiac.com can we discuss these things.

Thanks Lisa, needed a good laugh :lol:

I love onions, but never eat them if I'm going out or having anyone in. They don't give me D, but rather a very powerful ... shall I say 'skunk' effect.

Yeah guys,,,I love onions- but they bloat up my stomach,,,same with garlic. As for the poo,, I see spinach, red peppers, corn- yes my poo is very colorful. These convos are great- to know I can talk about poo with people I never met before...the world is great!

Poo is a very important topic to us here. I can usually tell what I had for dinner the night before. Hope that stops soon. I asked my husband once, before I was gluten-free if he could tell what foods he ate from the poo and he said he never found poo in the toilet so interesting that he actually STUDIED it.! I told him he just took his healthy poo too much for granted. You spend as much time on the throne as some of us have, you can't help but study it! :blink: Oh, yeah, forgot the thread... Onions are the worst. Any way, shape, or form!!

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens. I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium. I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells. When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
