I eat their donuts without problems and I am very sensitive. Are you sure your spreads were safe?

If your PB and jam were ever used by a gluten-eater, there are probably gluteny bread crumbs from the knife/spoon in them. Most people spread some PB on their bread, and then put the crumby knife back in the PB to get more, leaving crumbs in the PB.

You could have your own, CLEARLY LABELED GLUTEN-FREE PB, or ask everyone to be careful not to double-dip (but that practically never happens, everyone always forgets after 3 days).

The bread is made by Kinnikinnick. It's probably the best of the easily available commercial gluten-free breads.

Does this happen everytime you have tried the bread?

I agree with the last post on the dedicated PB and Jelly jars. My husband has one with his name on it and I have one with G F on it and sometimes put a sticker on it so it shows up on the lid (something fun haha).

I use to get that bread in the beginning when I was still learning what other ingredients and things I had a problem with. I kept feeling sick and funny in my head/head ach... Later figured out I couldn't have tapioca flour/starch. There is a possibility that you cannot tollerate one of the ingredients. Just a thought :)

Hope you figure it out and feel better.

Another possibility: what are you drinking when you eat your sandwich?

If it's milk, perhaps you need to be (at least, temporarily) dairy-free. Many of us couldn't tolerate dairy products at the beginning of a gluten-free diet, as our intestines had not yet healed (the villi, which are damaged by gluten, are what produce the lactase enzyme, that digests the lactose in dairy). Some celiacs can't ever go back to dairy; many can. I'd guess that it might have something to do with how long your intestines were being damaged by gluten, but it's probably more complicated than that.

Hey thanks for your replies! Sorry I double posted... But yeah I did you the jam that I have used on reg. bread before I went gluten free so I didnt really think about that. I drank water with the toast. Ill have to test it again sometime... to see if I have any symptoms.

Their entire company/operation is gluten-free, so it has to be something other than a gluten thing.

Good luck!

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
