Something Wrong With This Meal?

Earlier this evening I had chop meat, rice, Amys organic salsa, Daisy sour cream, and gluten-free chips. Even after just a few bites I started feeling really full and a little sick, and Im bloated and feel like Im pregnant! I think I remember reading that some people have had problems with Amys products, but everything in this meal was gluten-free! Im trying to eat another meal because I started getting low blood sugar symptoms, and even though I feel hungry, the bloating is not allowing me to really eat. Ugh.

Could you be having dairy problems? What kind of meat was it?

No dairy problems...can drink milk with no problem. The meat was just regular chop meat from Kroger's meat dept.

check the sour cream, also just because you can drink milk with no problems does not mean that you can eat sour cream with no problems. with food intolerances/allergies there is something about food combinations that can "do you in". So maybe you can do sour cream but not say sour cream with corn or tomatoes at the same time or all three at once is the problem.

That is exactly what happened to me when I got food poisoning. It wasn't gluten related. I hope for your sake it was just a little gluten. I hope you're feeling better soon! Let us know.

That's interesting...I guess I'll just lay off the sour cream.

Lord I hope that's not it either!

maybe it was the sour cream? I'm not sure though don't take much advice from me, I am just starting this diet. With what I am learning so far about it, theres more than likely going to be a slip up somewhere, either on our side or theres. What kind of meat did you eat though?

If Amy's does have a contamination problem, you may well have gotten gluten from there. What about the element the meat was cooked on? What about contamination from the chips (Kettle, for instance, is notorious for contamination)? Could it be the chips themselves (the salt and corn in chips bothers me if I have too much)?

      Confused About Results

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38, Diabetes and Celiac often go hand in hand.  Having more than one autoimmune disease is common with Celiac.  I'd err on the side of caution and go gluten free.   I did not want to go on insulin, either.  I got my diabetes under control by following the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (Dr. Sarah Ballantyne).  My diet now does include carbs.   We're supporting you through this difficult time.

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38,  I've been there with horrible symptoms and diarrhea accidents and diabetes and the insulin conundrum!  My doctors were just as frustrating!   I had nutritional deficiencies.  I know your doctors refuse to test for this.  So did mine, saying "I can't make money prescribing vitamins."  Some members say a naturopathic doctor is more open to testing for deficiencies.  Remember not to start supplementing until after testing is done.  Otherwise the supplements will raise your blood levels falsely.   I had studied Nutrition at university, so I decided to supplement essential vitamins and minerals.  A B Complex, extra Thiamine (Benfotiamine) for the diabetes, magnesium and Vitamin D are the supplements I started with.   The B vitamins are water soluble so any excess is excreted easily.  Thiamine even in high doses is safe and nontoxic.  Diabetics lose more thiamine in urine because of weird kidney stuff.   I wanted to get my blood glucose levels under control because gluten free foods made my level spike for long periods, too.  I absolutely did not want to go on insulin.  Once you do, the pancreas stops making it.  Very scary.  Best to help the pancreas function with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine. I began the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, A Celiac herself).  It's a low carb, very strict diet at first, then expanded.  I considered it similar to feeding a sick baby.  You don't give hard to digest foods to a baby.  You give easily digestible foods.  This allows time for the gastrointestinal tract to calm down and heal.  Symptoms started to calm down quickly.  With the vitamins, I started feeling much better.  My blood glucose levels stabilized.  I did not go on insulin.  I do not take anti-glycemic pharmaceutical drugs like Metformin.  Just diet.  You're making the right decision to live as a Celiac.  Your body is telling you clearly.  You can get through this.  You're strong and you're fighting for yourself and your baby.  Good job!  You have the Tribe behind you!

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Though trying to diligently eat gluten free, recent bloodwork was bad so searching for culprits.  Eat lot of (preferably mixed) nuts.  Most allergen labels say may be processed on equpment that also processes wheat, etc.  Finally found ONE kind (unsalted mixed) at BJ's.  Wessley (their store brand) that did not contain that warning.  Says in large letters "A GLUTEN FREE FOOD."  Well, all nuts are a gluten free FOOD!  Have been eating and now wonder if this is intentionally decieving.  So stopped eating until find culprit.  Nuts are so good for protein and fiber (especially if trying to not eat meat).  'Tis so frustrating.  Thanks to above, I'll look into Tierra Farms.

      Yasso frozen yogurt bars - be careful

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Despite being very diligent about eating gluten free, my recent bloodwork was bad.  So been on a mission to find the culprit(s).  During Covid my daughter found "certified gluten free" Yasso mint chocolate chip yogurt bars at Costco.  I was elated and have been eating them since.  When delving into possible culprits I discovered that the boxes with 12 bars at both Costco and BJ's no longer say "certified gluten free."  But the boxes with 4 bars at groceries and Target still say "certified gluten free."  Contacted the manufacturer and was told to go by what the box says.  So guess different machinery is used.  Was also told they were in the process of changing boxes.  Will be interesting to see what that brings.
