Help! I have been gluten free for two years and feeling good. I have still had trouble with anemia and three months ago started on a twice day iron/vitamin C combo. After a month of that I felt fantastic. Then three weeks ago I started having diahreaha and haven't stopped. I read where too much Vitamin C can cause this so I stopped the vitamin C. So far it hasn't helped at all. The only other new addition to my diet is Microgestin 1.5 from Watson pharma but I called the manufacturer and their fillers do not contain gluten. I live in Vegas so if anyone has a dr. who knows about celiac please pass that on as well. Thank you!

Maybe another intolerance has reared it's ugly head now. Some nightshades give me diarrhea, such as tomatoes. They make me very ill, within a very short time! I too, had been gluten free for around 3 years when my next intolerance showed itself, which was soy.

If you're sure that there's no gluten sneaking in somewhere (think personal care products, etc), I would begin considering additional food intolerance.

It's not at all uncommon for Celiacs to have sensitivities to other foods. Good places to start--soy, dairy, corn, other grains--and tapioca. I'm sensitive to it, as are several other people here. It's in a lot of gluten-free replacement foods.

Good luck with everything :)

Some celiacs developed an intolerance to the alternative starches they use once going gluten free.

If you are sure that you are not ingesting any hidden gluten, you might want to cut out fatty or carbohydrate filled foods as this might help.

Also try keeping a food/symptoms diary as this may help you pin point what is making you sick.

If none of this works, go see an allergist.

Good luck :)

Thank you everyone! I will try all the things you suggested and greatly appreciate your help.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
