Glutened Or Another Intolerance?

Let me start off by saying that I know I have intolerances to onions, garlic, soy & milk/lactose in addition to gluten. The night before last I ate an Amy's frozen meal (Enchilada Bowl or something like that) and it did have onions, garlic and soy in it. I knew that it would probably upset my system a tiny bit, but I was NOT prepared for the way I felt for the next 24-36 hours. The previous time I ate it I just had some gas and minor gas pains for a couple hours. This time I was miserable with severe cramping and looser stools, but never D. Not sure if it was a cross contaimination issue (since they do make wheat items in the same place) or if the other tolerances just kicked in. I can tell you one thing...I will NOT be eating that again. I was in a hurry and didn't really have much other choice than a gluten-free donut, which I will choose next time ;) I am finally almost back to normal, but going with very safe foods for a while...things I know won't mess with my stomach/intestines.

Anyone else have any issues with Amy's products?

I've reacted to the enchilada bowl. My tummy was not happy, and I have no other intolerances that I'm aware of other than wheat.

I assumed it was a CC issue.

I have never tried their products--there was a long thread about it not too long ago. From what I remember, there were several people who reported problems with Amy's.

YES! Everytime I have something prepared from Amy's I do. I don't know what it is though. I'll have trouble sleeping and be restless all night and when I do sleep I'll have frightning dreams. I feel like a do when I have MSG. So unless its an ingredient that's a derivative of MSG I don't know. I suspect it is.

Thanks guys! Sorry to hear that others have had issues with those products as well. I will definitely be steering clear of them now. It is a shame b/c they are pretty tasty!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Matthias · Posted

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      By trents · Posted

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
