Digestive Issues Please Help

hi, I have been gluten free for about 7 weeks now and all of a sudden I have been digestive issues and can't stay away from the bathroom. I haven't had any gluten that I know of. I have been eating pears, fish, oranges,lettuce,natural peanut butter, peanuts, grapefruit slices...so I am real confused. It started about 4 days ago when I ate some new blueberries and new blanched almonds from a different store than usual. I continued to try quinoa, amaranth and buckwheat at this time which added to the problem but today I had no grains or seeds of any kind and still..

Is this part of the healing process? what am I doing wrong. I can't stand this.

Many on this board report that CC will give them problems for a number of days, so you may still be feeling the effects from those contaminated items (if indeed they where).

Well, from the diet you described, I'd highly recommend some changes there. Do you eat fresh veggies? Since peanuts are somewhat tougher to digest, I think I'd avoid that for now. Same with almonds and other nuts. Citrus can also be problematic, so you may need to cut down on that too.

Are those the only foods you've been eating?

I agree with all the Rice Guy has said, he always gives good advice :) so all that I have to add is to keep a food diary and become your own detective at what is bothering you. You are so new into healing and sometimes its best to keep it simple in the beginning with all fresh foods. As Rice Guy says citrus fruits can be hard to digest for some (I still can't) and it maybe too soon to add in the buckwheat (be careful some can be cc in the manufacturing process so get a reliable brand) and other grains you are not used to. Good luck and keep us posted!

I've been reading about fructose intolerance lately, maybe it's that? Might be something to google on.

When I discovered the fructose malabsorption it sounded so much like me that I was excited to test it. I ate a tablespoon of pure whipped honey and sure enough in a half hour I was in the loo :o Also, I thought sweet baby ray's was glutening me lately but the first ingredient is High Fructose Corn syrup! Honey and High fructose corn syrup are extremely high in fructose vs. glucose, so those products will tell you quickly if you have a problem. I've been keeping a food diary for 1 1/2 yrs and was able to see that I haven't felt well on high dairy days and anytime I've had too much high fructose. Food diaries help so much. Hope you find your answer!

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
