Im gluten-free/Cf and I had some Pamela's brownies last weekend. I got like a cold with my sinuses all plugged up and throat sore, It is allergy season and Im wondering if it was just a cold or my allergies or an allergic reaction to the brownies. The package is called Irresistable Brownie Mix and I just wanted to know if anyone had a problem with them.

Pamela's website says the brownie mix is milk-free. This link below lists the ingredients/allergens in the mix if that helps. Sometimes a product can produce a sinus reaction...try and track the ingredients and see if you get a similar reaction when eating another product. However, as I am typing this I do have my second sinus infection since Feb :( so, it has been a bad year for allergies etc. Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks Jen,

I saw that link too, and was a little confused. If you look at the brownie mix,it has a little astreick, I think

(that's where I am confused)it says on the bottom of the page...may contain milk proteins due to manufacturing process.

I also forgot to mention, another symptom, constipation. I always had this before going gluten free and this is the first time I have had it again, since i went gluten-free/cf.

Please, I hope the brownies are okay, and I am not reading that whole littel astreick thingy on the bottom of their chart wrong. I loovvve their brownies... :P

You are right on! It may contain traces of a milk protien and that might have been enough to set you off. I am in the same boat you are. Try the Gluten Free Pantry chocolate truffle brownies... just made them last night ...m...m.mmmm.mmmmm.mmm

the truffle brownies are really good. those are what i eat when in need of a major chocolate fix, i usually don't like chocolate, but since going casein free, i miss it a lot more than i though i would.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
