Anyone Else Have Trouble With Canned Tuna That Has Broth In It?

I have discovered that I can only eat tuna packed in olive oil. The others even those with soy oil have broth in them and I get sick later. Soy doesn't seem to be a problem for me, so it is something in the broth. I am gluten-free and casein free. Any ideas what is causing me to be affected by the broth? Wondering. :rolleyes:

I had to go read my can of tuna :lol: My tuna has vegetable broth and an allergy warning for soy. It is bumble-bee albacore tuna. I have not had any troubles with it and I seem to be sensitive. However, I remember watching Julia Child and Jaques Pepin talking about can tuna and how Julia said the tuna must be packed in oil! Julia seemed to think it was close to a sin to have tuna packed in water/broth. Julia would advise you (on taste alone) to stick with the tuna in olive oil. I think I might have to agree with her, it tastes better.

Hi,

I have never been able to find tuna packed only in water. The cans I have looked at always say water on the front but then broth is listed in the ingredients also. What kind do you buy? Thanks!

I only have tuna in water also and it is the only kind that I have ever had. I buy Oceans, Clover Leaf or Gold Seal. The ingredients are normally tuna, salt, water and some have a preservative such as disodium phosphate.

Vegetable broth is pretty much the standard in tuna. There's no gluten. Tuna, like other meats, must by USDA law list any grain added. The only time I've found a tuna with gluten was a flavored one in a packet that had soy sauce.

I have never found tuna that contained gluten either, except for the mixes. I do always buy tuna in water and that water as a rule is a soy-based broth and it does bother me, just as I can't use regular mayo, I have to buy canola mayo. The only tuna I have found in the local stores is Bumble Bee in the foil pouch, does not contain soy.

HERE IS WHERE THE PROBLEM WITH OUR FOOD IS:

"Tuna, like other meats, must by USDA law list any grain added."

USDA does nothing to preserve the good quality and taste of foods anymore. I have given up tuna and poultry completely because of the added solutions. :angry:

I have problems with the ones that have soy, I use a water only brand. I believe it is Starkist Gourmet in a gold can. That one I have no problem with.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Sarah Grace,  Thank you for the update!  It's so good to hear from you!  I'm glad Thiamine, B Complex and magnesium have helped you.  Yes, it's important to take all three together.    I had to quit eating cheese and nuts a long time ago because they triggered migraines in me, too.  They are high in tyrosine, an amino acid, found also in fermented foods like sauerkraut and red wine.   I found taking Tryptophan very helpful with migraines.  Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin and people with migraines are often low in serotonin.  (Don't take tryptophan if you're taking an SSRI.)     This recent study shows tryptophan really helps. The association between dietary tryptophan intake and migraine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31254181/   For immediate respite from a migraine, try smiling REALLY BIG, mouth closed, tongue pressed against roof of mouth, and crinkle up your eyes like you just heard or saw the funniest thing...  This causes an endorphin release in the brain.  Usually it's the funny event, then the endorphin release and then the smile.  Smiling first makes the endorphin center think it missed something and it catches up quickly by releasing endorphins after the big crinkle eyed smile.  Must make crinkly eyes with smile or it won't work.  If you do this too frequently within a short time frame (several hours), you can deplete your endorphins, but you'll make more in a couple of hours, so no worries. Get your thyroid checked, too.  Migraines are also seen in low thyroid function (Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism).  Celiac and thyroid problems go hand in hand.   Vitamin D helps, too.  Low Vitamin D is found in migraine.   I'm so glad you're doing better.

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.
