I read your other thread and I can relate to alot of what you're feeling. Chemicals in foods can definately wreak havoc on the brain. I wasnt as young as you are when I started to experience the symptoms (I had many from the list above) so when it happened I definately knew something wasnt right....that it wasnt normal at all. I had been healthy for all my life with none of the symptoms on that list.

I ended up almost totally avoiding people because I couldnt follow conversations and I just felt "out of it" all the time. I felt kind of like I was on drugs most of the time.....totally spaced out. I also got to the point that I was having suicidal thoughts and just not really being able to cope anymore....everything seemed kind of out of my control.

Once I started making strict diet changes my head totally cleared...I felt happy again and I no longer had that spaced out feeling. No more brainfog (at least not as bad as it had been). I also reduced my exposure to household chemicals, perfumes, etc.

I hope you get good results from the diet but if things arent improving and you continue to feel bad, severely depressed.....and especially if you still feel suicidal at times.....be sure to seek medical help.

I havent been depressed since starting the diet although I do have a bad day here and there which is always related to what I've eaten. On Christmas I ate whatever I wanted (except soda) ALL DAY and seemed to do OK. I got a little bit of a runny nose and sore throat but nothing bad enough to make me stop eating. I woke up yesterday with a few "cold-like" symptoms which wore off pretty quickly and I thought I'd done really well with handling everything I'd eaten.

I went to work and got on the computer (same thing I do every morning) and I FORGOT how to do the same tasks that I do every day. I FORGOT all of the passwords I need to get into the computer. Everything was totally jumbled in my mind and I was trying to get on using very old passwords....I couldn't "get" the info. that I needed. It was there in my mind....but I couldnt access it. After 15 minutes I had to get help from a co-worker.

I havent had that problem in a VERY long time....so definately these things can affect the brain. If I ate whatever I wanted everyday eventually I wouldnt be able to function at all.

Probably not. Here the price sticker has the ingredients on the sticker. Don't know about there. They use flour as a binder in meats, especially ham.

I don't think I have heard of that practice in the US mushroom.

In the U.S. you don't find wheat as a "binder" in deli meats.

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self.

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
