Peanuts?

Does anyone have problems with peanuts as well? I have talked to celiacs who associate their problems with peanuts as part of celiac. It might just be that I have a peanut allergy as well but I just wondered if it could relate to celiac in any way.

I don't think peanut allergies have anything to do with celiac disease. They're common, but I don't think there's any correlation between peanut allergies and celiac disease.

I was told that we are sensitive to more things than other people so a peanut allergy wouldn't seem so odd.

There could be some odd connection or just that we are "weaker." If you get what I mean.

I don't know......some people asked about greater sensitivity to regular sicknesses (flu, stomach virus, some other thing) and a few people mentioned that we don't have a greater sensitivity to that......I don't know if this also applies to allergies, or not, but that's what I based my inference on.

I have a problem with peanuts but it is nothing to do with an actual allergy....

I am a very hard time digesting peanuts and they really hurt my system going through.... I don't have a problem with peanut butter though (the smooth kind)..

Have a great day!

i developed a problem with peanuts a couple months after i was diagnosed.. my face gets really hot and red. its really weird all of things pop up one after another- lactose intollerance then gluten then peanuts. who knows whats next.

I have a problem with peanuts - even food I think is safe (no peanuts) and then look back after the pain begins and realize it is made with Peanut Oil. I discovered this problem after I eliminated gluten from my diet. I have also since discovered soy and corn. I already was lactose/casein intollerant.

Anyway...fruit, veggies, and meat seem to be safe.

People can have reactions to foods suddenly. . .like with penuts. . .

I do think it's all related but that's just my opinion.

Also if you are having a spell of diarrhea nuts and beans can make it worse.

I definately can't do peanuts! I seem to have a gluten type reaction whenever I eat them. I feel like I'm allergic to everything! <_<

My friend is deathly allergic to peanuts and has celiac disease

tarnalberry Community Regular

While I don't think there is a strict correlation (like the genes that cause celiac disease also cause peanut allergy), we may have more exposure to peanuts than some others, and food intolerances from an overactive immune system often go together, so it's not terribly surprising. It's one reason why I try fairly hard to avoid eating peanuts (or any other major allergen) on back-to-back days.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.
    • trents
      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
