Just wondering does the in ability to digest Blue berries or Strawberries have any thing to do with Gluten or Celiac problems?

No, I don't think so. I can't tolerate berries either (extremely high in salicylates), but it is an issue not directly connected to celiac disease.

JLC,

I'd be lost without my blueberries and strawberries. I only eat 4 fruits mainly because of the low sugar content. The berries provide much antioxidant activity and bind with mycotoxins. If one has trouble with them it may be to leaky gut issues caused by gluten or parasites (macroand microscopic).

Heal the gut and then try a few at a time. I have mine frozen so they keep well and are not filled with so much chemical because they will be frozen quickly after harvesting.

all fresh fruit is fine and gluten free. The problem comes wiht some of it that is dried. It can be coated with wheat starch as well as sulphur.

cant go wrong with fresh berries~!

Jewi,

Anything that ends in ---berry is low sugar fruit. I happen to like the blueberries and strawberries the best and they are the most available in frozen so they do not spoil. Granny smith apples if you can tolerate them.. I didn't at first but now I do... with some almond or cashew butter on the slices. Yum. Tomatoes... & grapefruit (I like the red ones as they are sweeter).

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      @Ginger38, I'm with you! I could not take Metformin. I got so sick, constant diarrhea, abdominal cramps, extreme highs and lows, no energy, weight loss, muscle wasting. Just horrible. Metformin is known to block thiamine absorption. Talk to your doctor about thiamine deficiency. It's called Gastrointestinal Beriberi. My doctor didn...

      Newly Diagnosed

      It’s completely understandable to feel blindsided by a celiac disease diagnosis, especially when you’ve never experienced any noticeable symptoms. Many people assume that celiac disease always comes with obvious digestive distress, but in reality, some people—like you—are asymptomatic, or what’s sometimes called “silent celiac.” Even without symptoms, the...

      Welcome to the forum, @Jmartes71, Wow! 31 years! That's great! You can get a DNA test to show genes specifically for Celiac. Your genes don't change whether you eat gluten or not. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies? The gluten free diet can be low in essential nutrients. You may have become a bit deficient after such...

      It’s completely understandable to feel blindsided by a celiac disease diagnosis, especially when you’ve never experienced any noticeable symptoms. Many people assume that celiac disease always comes with obvious digestive distress, but in reality, some people—like you—are asymptomatic, or what’s sometimes called “silent celiac.” Even without symptoms, the disease can still cause internal damage to your small intestine and increase your risk for serious complications like osteoporosis, infertility, certain cancers, and neurological issues, including ataxia. That’s why treatment—a strict lifelong gluten-free diet—is recommended for all individuals diagnosed with celiac disease...

Start keeping a food journal.  Other food sensitivities could have developed.  Journaling can help connect symptoms with specific foods.  Vitamin D can help calm the immune system so you don't react to everything.
