Is Anyone Still Having Problems With Mrs. Mays?

I've been gluten free now for 7 months and feel terrific except when I eat Mrs. Mays Naturals Nut mixes. I know there have been some questions about the rice malt in it. I contacted them and was told that they make their own rice malt and it does not contain gluten. However, I still don't feel well when I eat them. Gassy, anxiety back, bloated, etc.. Just wondering if maybe the nuts are contaminated. Anyone else experience this? I'm sad because I love them :(

If you're getting GI symptoms it may just be that you are still healing and the nuts and seeds are irritating to your sensitive tissue. I had to cut out nuts and seeds, including tomato, cucumber, flax and sesame seeds for several months while I was healing. And I am introducing them back occasionally in small quantity. It' s very common for those who have intestinal tract diseases to have problems with nuts and seeds, which are hard to digest.

I'd like to point out that the last time I purchased a Mrs. Mays product it stated it was Wheat Free and not Gluten Free and it's made in China. There's issues with products from overseas in that there could be strong cross contamination (please note the dog food fiasco from 2 years ago and the lead paint on children's toys situation).

So proceed with caution on Mrs. Mays stuff......

FWIW, the Mrs. May's Trio bars at Costco clearly state "Free of gluten, dairy, wheat, GMO" on the packaging.

      I cannot tolerate it at all - triggers burning and nausea, ditto aspirin.  Here in the UK I take Paracetamol.

      For back pain, I take a combination of Cobalamine B12, Pyridoxine B 6, and Thiamine B 1 (in the form Benfotiamine), which have an analgesic effect.  These three B vitamins together work way better than those over the counter pain relievers.  Theses are water soluble B vitamins that are easily excreted via the kidneys if not needed.  Thiamine will also help the nausea.

      @stephaniekl, welcome to the forum, Is your daughter taking any nutritional supplements?   Weight loss and failure to thrive are two symptoms of thiamine insufficiency.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms are not recognized as such by doctors.   I experienced similar symptoms when I became malnourished.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms can become worse quickly, and can affect one emotionally and mentally.  Although blood tests for thiamine aren't accurate, do have your daughter checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Thiamine B 1 works with the other B vitamins and magnesium.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 help improve Gerd.  All the B vitamins are frequently low due to malabsorption.  Vitamin D will help calm the immune system.  Thiamine helps the immune system fight off viruses like those tick borne illnesses.   Thiamine Mononitrate, which is in many vitamin supplements, is not bioavailable.  I was taking a multivitamin containing thiamine mononitrate and still became deficient in thiamine. Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  A form called TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) is also excellent for correcting thiamine deficiency.  A combination of Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, and Pyridoxine B 6 has analgesic properties.  I take it for back pain.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      Has prednisone or some other systemic steroid been tried that might quiet her immune system down for a while? I have two acquaintances with Lyme's disease. It is a wicked condition that has long fingers.

      We have.  She is so limited as to what she can eat.  She has a nutritionist, but they are even at a loss.  Right now, her pain is so significant that she can only eat 5-10 bites a meal.   We just got some labs back today and she is hypoglycemia, anemic and her immune system is shot.  She also is positive for 3 tickborne illnesses.  Thanks for your help!
