Increased Sensitivity To 'gassy' Foods?

I love brussels sprouts. I have always eaten them by the bushel.

I'm 2 weeks gluten free and feeling wonderful in my GI tract finally after 8 years of painful gas etc.

brussels sprouts never bothered me...until tonight.

I ate my usual portion (a green giant product, which is supposed to be safely gluten-free) and within 15 minutes my belly blew up like a balloon and all the old pain/cramping is back with a vengeance.

I know that brussels sprouts are a classic 'gassy' food, but why am I suddenly unable to eat them?

Coincidence/fluke? New sensitivity? Something else?

Did you have D before gluten free? If so, I have a theory about this. Whilst eating gluten the body moves food out quicker because the gluten is an irritant so the body says "get it out"!!! So it moves fast and you have D.

Well now that you arent eating gluten the food stays in a little longer which gives it more time to ferment and gas up.

Anyone else?

      That is a solid home test--feel free to share other tests you run.

      Progesterone pills - are they gluten free??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Definitely consult with your doctor before considering such high doses--5,000 IU is likely fine, but 50,000 IU could cause serious issues over time.

      Gluten found in Bob's Red Mill TVP using Elisa Technology test

      By Janet McAlpin · Posted

      Hello all,  I used the Elisa Technology test by EZ Gluten. It is PTM sm certified and tests down to 10,000ppm. I order them online and use at home. Each test takes 25 minutes and it is the most accurate home test I have found.  I am aware that gluten-free labeling indicates that a food has under 20,000 ppm of gluten according to FDA standards.     I have heard discussions about Bob’s Red Mill not conforming to the certified gluten-free certified symbol but continued to use their own gluten-free symbol. I have not done my own deep dive on this topic  -yet! Largely because I have eaten Bob’s Red Mill gluten-free oats and Gluten Free flours of all kinds for years with no reaction. So I trusted their label. This is the first time I have had a reaction to a Bob’s Red Mill product.    I am curious to read more and learn more if anyone knows about Bob’s Red Mill testing practices.    thanks for your help and interest, Janet

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By larc · Posted

      All of these comments support what I've experienced for years -- just about anything in a package is suspect for gluten no matter how much the label trumpets its gluten-free status. And that includes foods that are labeled "certified gluten-free." A while back I was especially disappointed with nuts.com products -- after I had a reaction. As a result, I've gone through several periods when my celiac symptoms (which include significant cognitive issues, nervous system problems and arteriosclerosis) have led me to eat nothing out of a package and have cooked everything from scratch. Even today, the only nuts I eat are those I buy in the shell, crack open myself and cook. I have had too many bad experiences with nuts that I didn't prepare this way.

      Untreated celiac

      I think in the UAE you may have access to pistachios, cashews and coconut. All would be packed with calory and nutrient dense. Cashews especially, are both high in fat and higher in carbs than most other nuts.
