Sulfites?

Does anyone out there have a problem with sulfites? I have suspected this, ever since having had a BAAAD experience with dried apricots - and thereafter having an "iffy" gut when ingesting dried fruit...

Anyone?

I've been sulphite sensitive since I was a kid. Many things have sulphites (including naturally occuring ones). Try some other things and see how you feel. Do you react to wine? Other dried fruit? Pretty much anything with dried onions in it?

Sulfites bother me too. But not my digestion. The smell of them in dried fruits makes my chest tighten up and burn immediately. In red wine, I may or may not get a headache, really depends on how "cheap" it is. I really don't drink wine too much, but I usually do better with white, even though I really prefer red.

Sensitivity to sulfites is pretty common, so you are definitely not alone.

I am so allergic to sulphites I have had anaphalatic (sp) shock in the past. I am allergic also sula, sulfates, and all sulfur derivatives. These allergies eliminate all pain medications and I have arthritis up and down my spine. I have Fibromyalgia. I am in lots of pain all the time, and can't have pain meds. None of my doctor's will prescribe pain meds because of my allergies.

No doctor will give me any medicines. I have been discovered to have NASH (non -alcohol inflammation fatty liver disease) and must go on insulin. I have been assure the new insulins have no sulphites in them.

I had chest pain from drinking wine and it was because of the sulphites. I no longer touch any alcohol and haven't for years. Now because of NASH, I can't have anything that will cause NASH to do further damage to my liver. So there is no medication going to be given that can affect my liver, can ever be taken.

I have problems with glutten, I am in the testing faze. I have problem with popcorn, and all starch products, so far.

The testing goes on.

Hugs all

      @nanny marley, Have you been taking any vitamins or mineral supplements besides Vitamin D? What are you eating?  Do you eat processed gluten free foods?   You said your symptoms included fatigue, body hair loss, low vitamin d,  Restless Leg Syndrome, Raynaud's Syndrome, contact dermatitis, rhinitis, body aches, TMJ, heart palpitations, sleep issues, vomiting,  dizziness, frequent bowel movements. There's eight B vitamins and Vitamin C that are water soluble.  When one has diarrhea for extended periods of time, those water soluble essential vitamins are flushed out of the body easily, and there's little time to absorb any more water soluble vitamins or fat soluble vitamins from food moving through that fast.   It's easy to become vitamin deficient with diarrhea.   Deficiency in Vitamin B1, Thiamine, can result in Gastrointestinal BeriBeri which can also cause diarrhea, fatigue, and abdominal pain.  Deficiency in Vitamin B3, Niacin, can cause diarrhea as well as skin rashes, and sleep issues.  Deficiency in Vitamin B12, Cobalamine, can cause diarrhea and Restless Leg Syndrome.  Deficiency in Vitamin C can cause diarrhea and skin rashes. Thiamine deficiency can also cause heart palpitations, sleep issues, and vomiting.  Have you had your thyroid checked?  Hypothyroidism can cause body hair loss, as can iron deficiency.   I've experienced serious nutritional deficiencies which my doctors did not recognize as such and blamed me for making stuff up.  I've experienced these nutritional deficiencies.  I earned a degree in Microbiology after studying nutrition because I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.  Vitamins are special organic compounds that our bodies cannot make, so we must get them from food or supplements.  Without these vitamins, our bodies cannot function well. Talk to your doctor and nutritionist about supplementing with vitamins and minerals that are lacking on the gluten free diet.  Blood tests for deficiencies in the B vitamins are not accurate.  Taking a B Complex and looking for health improvement is best.   I've got serious vision problems and would really appreciate punctuation.  Thanks P.S.  I take a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12 and Pyridoxine B6 for back pain from crushed vertebrae.  I understand back pain.  These vitamins together relieve pain.

      Any bad experience with King Arthur Gluten-free bread flour

      By Sanna King · Posted

      King Arthur Gluten-free bread flour contains wheat starch, but has had the gluten removed. According to the FDA, it meets the FDA's gluten-free standard of less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten. Has anyone here tried to bake bread from this? If yes, did you have a reaction? Thank you in advance for your time and attention.
