Possible Legume Intolerance?


Guest BERNESES

Recommended Posts

Guest BERNESES

Thanks to jerseyangel in the long post about night sweats, I think I may be legume intolerant. I don't eat soy (9which is a legume) and i've been noticing for awhile I don't seem to tolerate peanuts very well. I went through my food journal and it looks like the nights I haave the worst sweats are the days I have eaten peanuts/peanut butter.

Last night was the clincher though- I had aa BumbleBar which has peanuts and I felt a little funky after i ate it but last night I absolutely soaked the bed, today my gas smells and my joints ache.

juliem mentioned it could be the mold in peanuts I am reaacting too as well but I'm wondering if I can tolerate soy or peanuts, should I cut out ALL legumes. I'd hate to give up chickpeas, hummus, beans in my chili, but if I have to I will.

What are other legumes? Peanuts, soy, lentils, kidney beans. Are there any beans that aren't legumes? What tastes as good or almost as good as peanut butter (almond butter?). I've never tried any of the other nut butters.

Thanks ! Beverly

As to almond butter - it tastes very good on sandwiches and the like; not so good as peanut butter right from the jar. One idea is to get it raw instead of roasted. It is very gooey, but is healthier. The taste, though, might be better in the roasted kind, I've not had it.

Beverly - do you have MS, by any chance?

Cashew butter and macadamia butter are very good, too.

I use cashew butter (raw) instead of peanut butter.

One of my intolerances, I think it is yeast but not totally sure, causes joint pain for me.

Personally, I avoid all beans and peanut butter. I still eat green beans and peas with few problems but the rest, I won't even add them to the chili. I make a very hearty chili and beans would be nice added back in, but really, nobody misses them. Also, my hubby and oldest cannot have beans either.

No- I don't have MS. fibromyaalgia though. Curious why you asked. Is there a connection?

lorka150 Collaborator

it is not really recommended for people with MS to consume a lot of legumes, that is why I asked.

Guest BERNESES

oh phew! i thought there was some connection between being legume intolerant and having MS. I do have Fibromyalgia and it definitely makes me achier. Thanks for clarifying that. :)

Berneses,

I agree with Bully4You that almond butter is gooey. Its not as thick and easy to work with like peanut butter, it's more runny. I usually get raw almond butter from Maranatha at the health food store. When you first open the jar the oil is all separated from it and you have to stir it up to mix the oil back in, but then I keep it in the fridge and the cold temp 'sets' it up a little bit. It's a good idea to start with small amounts to see how you do.

Guest BERNESES

Thank you- I bought some Maranatha today (because I loved their pb) and it's in the fridge but it will be there for awhile before I try it out- I start a week-long exam for my degree on Friday and cannot be careful enough right now! Thanks for all your advice! B

to everyone,

almond butter is pricey (well, it canada it is), and i get a huge thing of it from costco (marantha brand) fora fraction of the cost from any grocer/health food store.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
