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?

      Bad Reaction To Regular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream

      By Tanner L · Posted

      Constantly! I don't want everything to cost as much as a KIND bar, as great as they are.  Happy most of the info is available to us to make smart decisions for our health, just need to do a little more research.

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed in the medical community. It is not genetically as black and white as we once thought.
