Which Food To Blame

i have been gluten free for awhile now. pretty positive ive been really good for the last 2-3 months or so. but symptoms are still there. ive cut corn, soy, dairy, almonds, and anything artificial out and still got all the same stomach reactions. im wondering now if it could be a possible nightshade intolerence or possibly peanuts. which both would suck since im trying to gain weight. or could it be from cc because i live in a household where everyone eats gluten. i got my own cooking stuff. i keep everything separate, wash my own dishes, and run my hands under water as much as possible when going thru the kitchen. so i just dont see where its coming from. any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

I had to eliminate sugar. Also, do you you the same sponge as everyone else to wash your dishes?

Are you keeping a food diary? If not, write down everything you are eating and how you feel afterwords (next day for me) and after a few weeks you will start to see patterns. This helped me discover my other intolerances. Cross contamination is also a possibility when you share the kitchen with gluten eaters (I do as well). Everyone tries very hard to not gluten me but we are a shared facility so I have to be extra careful. I am not one of those who won't allow gluten (if I weren't the only one then that would be different) but they have their own cupboard for gluten and I have my own counter space etc. I agree to use your own sponge especially if all dishes are done by hand. Good luck and hope you find your answers soon!

What kind of stomach ache is it? I finally figured out that coconut oil gives me a stomach ache, though a weird one. I was loving it! Sugars can give me stomach aches.

I've determined that I have various tummy aches and can usually tell by the type which food has offended me. Like I eat lots of avocados. Sometimes it is just too much fat. And that is a particular tummy ache. Dehydration tummy aches are different. Coconut oil tummy aches are different. Constipated/gluteny tummy aches are different.

Can you describe your tummy ache?

You might consider a RAST test. This will tell you what all you are allergic to.

i keep my own sponge separate from theirs. i keep all my own stuff atop in a cupboard so theres no chance of anything falling down or what not. the symptoms are alot like gluten only not as intense. i got the stomach rumbles, fatigue, diareha, and some gas and i havent slept good in quite awhile too which im sure is related in one way or another. what is RAST test ive never heard of it. the food diary is probley a good idea just its hard to rember but its probaly worth a shot. thanx

      I have many of those same CMP irregularities from time to time, with the exception that my potassium is always normal. What I can tell you is that it is normal for everything not to be normal when you get a CMP done. I used to get a CBC and CMP done annually and there were always some things out of spec. Docs don't get excited about it for the most part. It depends on the particular parameter (some are more important than others) and it depends on how far out of range it is. Docs also look for trends over time as opposed to isolated snapshots of this or that being out of spec at any given time. Our body chemistry is a dynamic entity.

      Not sure what you mean by "soy being like gluten". Soy does not cause a celiac reaction. However, soy is one of the foods that many celiacs don't tolerate well for other reasons. Eggs, corn and dairy are also on that list of foods that many of those with celiac disease seem to be sensitive to. But that doesn't mean that all celiacs are sensitive to any one of them or all of them. It just means it's common. You may not have a problem with soy at all. Celiac disease is not a food allergy. It is an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten that creates inflammation in the small bowel lining that, over time, damages that lining.

      Hey all  Has anyone on here experienced any of the following on their basic metabolic panel results ? This is what mine is currently flagging : - low sodium  - nearly too low potassium - nearly too low chloride - high CO2  - low anion gap  This is now after being nearly gluten-free for over a year (although I admit I make mistakes sometimes and pay dearly for it). My TtG went down to undetectable. I was so sensitive to so many foods I am now avoiding meat dairy and don’t eat a lot of cooked food in general (raw veggies, white rice, avocados and boiled eggs are my usual go-to meal that doesn’t make me sick). But my abdomen still hurts, i have a range of other symptoms too (headaches that last for days before letting up, fatigue, joint pain, bladder pain). Anyway im hoping my urologist (that’s now the latest specialist I’ve seen on account of the bladder pain and cloudy urine after eating certain foods) will help me with this since he ordered this metabolic panel. But I’m bouncing around a lot between specialists and still not sure what’s wrong. Also went back to the GI doctor and she thought maybe the celiac is just not healed or I have something else going on in the colon and I should have that looked at too. I’m still anemic too BTW. And I’m taking sooo may vitamins daily.

      I know I haven't been tested but self diagnosed that by avoiding gluten the past 7 months I feel so much better. I have followed how to eat and avoid gluten and have been good about hidden gluten in products, how to prep gluten-free and flours to use to bake gluten-free and have been very successful. It has been a learning curve but once you get the hang of it and more aware you realize how many places are gluten-free and contamination free practices etc. One thing I have read is how soy is like gluten. How would one know if soy affects you? I have eaten gluten free hershey reeses that say gluten free etc some other snacks say gluten free but contain soy and I dont get sick or soy yogurt no issues. Is there adifference in soys?

      Check your multivitamin to see if it contains Thiamine Mononitrate, which is a "shelf-stable" form of thiamine that doesn't break down with exposure to light, heat, and time sitting on a shelf waiting to be sold.  Our bodies have difficulty absorbing and utilizing it.  Only 30% is absorbed and less can be utilized.   There's some question as to how well multivitamins dissolve in the digestive tract.  You can test this at home.  YouTube has instructional videos.   Talk to your nutritionist about adding a B Complex.  The B vitamins are water soluble, so any excess is easily excreted if not needed.  Consider adding additional Thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) or thiamine hydrochloride.   Thiamine is needed to help control electrolytes.  Without sufficient thiamine, the kidneys loose electrolytes easily resulting in low sodium and chloride.   We need extra thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill, and when we exercise regularly, are an athlete, or do physical labor outdoors, and in hot weather.  Your return to activities and athletics may have depleted your thiamine and other B vitamins to a point symptoms are appearing.   The deficiency symptoms of B vitamins overlap, and can be pretty vague, or easily written off as due to something else like being tired after a busy day.  The symptoms you listed are the same as early B vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially Thiamine.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can appear in as little as three days.  I recognize the symptoms as those I had when I was deficient.  It can get much worse. "My symptoms are as follows: Dizziness, lightheaded, headaches (mostly sinus), jaw/neck pain, severe tinnitus, joint stiffness, fatigue, irregular heart rate, post exercise muscle fatigue and soreness, brain fog, insomnia.  Generally feeling unwell." I took a B 50 Complex twice a day and extra thiamine in the forms Benfotiamine and TTFD.  I currently take the Ex Plus supplement used in this study which shows B vitamins, especially Thiamine B 1, Riboflavin B2, Pyridoxine B 6, and B12 Cobalamine are very helpful.   A functional evaluation of anti-fatigue and exercise performance improvement following vitamin B complex supplementation in healthy humans, a randomized double-blind trial https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10542023/
