Why would someone react to foods at certain times of the day and not others?

Hi,

I am having a very strange issue that I was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on.

I've noticed that I seem to be reacting to foods at certain times of the day and not at other times. For example, yesterday I ate the following for lunch:

Salmon

Potato

Green beans

Peas

Corn

Carrot

I reacted to one or more of the above foods. This is not what I usually eat for lunch, but here's the thing: I eat this exact meal for dinner at least once a week and I never react to it. This has only happened when I tried eating it for lunch. So what exactly is the problem here?

I've had the same thing happen with cauliflower and broccoli. I can eat those for dinner no problem, but when I tried eating them for lunch I reacted to one or both of them.

The only explanation I can think of is that it's a delayed reaction from something I've eaten earlier in the day?

Any ideas why this might be happening?

Google histamines and mast cell disease.  We run out of antioxidants as the day goes on.

But wouldn't that mean I would be having the problem later in the day instead of earlier?

Did you prepare yourself?  I would s inspect cross contamination.

When you say "react," what exactly do you mean? Is this a gluten reaction? Do you have additional food intolerance issues or allergies? There are many things that can cause reactions, and not all are related to gluten.

I don't know what kind of reaction it is, that's why I'm asking.

The problem I'm having is that I seem to be able to eat foods at certain times of the day and I can tolerate it, but eaten at a different time of day the same food will cause symptoms. It is literally the same food, just eaten at a different time of day. I've gone into more detail in the original post.

I think it would make sense for you to keep a food diary to see if you can find a common link with your reaction and a particular food. From your list, corn stands out as a common issue for many celiacs. Perhaps start by eliminating it for a couple of weeks, then add it back. You could then do this for other foods.

corn bothers me a lot - goes right through me and gives me stomach pain as well as nuts and seeds

Thanks everyone.

I forgot to mention, I do have an intolerance to high histamine foods, so that could mean I am reacting to the green beans and peas, but it wouldn't explain the reaction to cauliflower and broccoli. And again, the reactions only happen some of the time, not all the time, which makes it even more confusing.

I have a theory that my morning coffee is raising my histamine levels and then when I eat more high histamine foods on top of that, it causes a reaction.

A food diary is probably a good idea.

@Aaron, 

Cauliflower and broccoli are members of the Cruciferous family of veggies.  They contain high levels of Sulfites.  Peas are high in Sulfites, too, although they don't belong to this class of veggies.

Here's an interesting article...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4017440/

Since Sulfites are used in many processed foods, you may want to consider eating fresh foods only.  

Check your medications to see if they contain Sulfites.  

I supplemented Molybdenum, as it is needed to process Sulfites out of the body.  

Hope this helps!

P.S. Sulfite Sensitivity can cause hives.

Thanks for this information.

Now that you mention it, I have previously reacted to some packaged foods that had sulfites listed as an allergen.

I don't have hives by the way, the symptoms that I get from reactions are mostly fatigue, depression, brain fog, and upset stomach.

my morning coffee is raising my histamine levels

Do you use milk in your morning coffee? I drink a lot of coffee throughout the day and finally noticed that as the day went on, I put less milk in it so that by bedtime it was practically black. Caused a burning in my gut. Sometimes woke me later and I had to take an Alka Selzer to go back to sleep. Switching to 100% Pasture fed, no grains dairy solved it. Commercial dairy has at least double the omega 6 as grass-fed. Omega 6 is inflammatory and the aspirin in Alka Selzer (original) is anti-inflammatory and the sodium bicarbonate is an antacid. It's been my go-to for 40 years now. The attack on aspirin started when Tylenol started advertising that 9 out of ten hospitals choose Tylenol, in the previous century.

"Get fast relief of heartburn, sour stomach, acid indigestion with headache or body aches with this effervescent antacid and pain reliever that has been around for more than 80 years."

      Severe severe mouth pain

      I agree. If someone has Barrett's Esophagus, at least here in the UK, as I understand it under normal circumstances a PPI needs to be taken long term (or similar medication). I have two friends with this. The PPI it does have side effects but they still have to take it.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      Do talk to your doctor about making changes to your medication. I'm not a medical doctor. I'm a microbiologist. I studied nutrition before switching to microbiology because I was curious what vitamins were doing inside the body. I would hate to give advice that jeopardizes your health, so do discuss things with your doctor.

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States. In European countries, different cooking methods and longer fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      From my own experience and that of others who have tried to discontinue PPI use, I think your taper down plan is much too aggressive. It took me months of very incremental tapering to get to the point where I felt I was succeeding and even then I had to rely some days on TUMS to squelch flareups. After about a year I felt I had finally won the battle. Rebound...

Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks?  Carbon Monoxide poisoning can cause the same symptoms as the flu and glutening.  Doctors have to check venous blood (not arterial) for carbon monoxide.  Are other inhabitants sick, or just you?  Do they leave the house and get fresh air which relieves their symptoms?

Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat.  Gluten content can vary according to where the wheat was grown, growing conditions, when harvested, and local preference, so a blend of both hard and soft wheat is used to make a uniform product.   I moved around quite a bit as a child in a military family.  I had different reactions to gluten in different areas of the country every time we moved.  I believe some wheat breeds and blends are able to provoke a worse immune response than others.   Since European soft wheat doesn't contain as much gluten as American wheat, you may try increasing your intake of your soft wheat products.  A minimum of ten grams of gluten is required to get a sufficient immunological response so that the anti-gluten antibodies leave the intestines and enter the bloodstream where they can be measured by the tTg IgA test.  Your whole wheat bread may only have a gram of gluten per slice, so be prepared...

It took me months of very incremental tapering to get to the point where I felt I was succeeding and even then I had to rely some days on TUMS to squelch flareups. After about a year I felt I had finally won the battle. Rebound is real. If I were you I would aim at cutting back in weekly increments for two weeks at a time rather than daily increments. So, for instance, if you have been taking 2x20mg per day, the first week cut that down to 2x20mg for six days and 1x20 mg for the other day. Do that for two weeks and then cut down to 2x20mg for five days and 1x20 for two days. On the third week, go 20x2 for four days and 20x1 for 3 days. Give yourself a week to adjust for the reduced dosage rather than reducing it more each week. I hope this makes sense.
