Gluten Free Cream?

This is the third time in a week I have been sick from cream. The first time was at my boyfriends house when his mum made carbonara and used cooking cream. I didn't realise it had thickener 1442 in it and later paid the price for not being more diligent.

On sunday I was naughty and ate boston icing from my work - I thought it was gluten free, and then later that night ate a dish that had cream in it, this time using bulla which had no thickener in it. Again I paid the price, and thought it must have been the icing as cream is naturally gluten free right?

However tonight I ate what was labelled as gluten free satay sauce, and tucked into that but I am starting to get all those symptoms of eating gluten. I'm thinking that the satay sauce had cream in it - in which case - why can I not eat cream?? I drink lots of milk and eat cheese so I can't also have dairy problems, but I didn't think that cream had gluten in it??

It's been so long since I have felt this crappy and I am so mad at myself for putting myself through this again! I have been diagnosed with coeliacs for just two months so I am still learning all the ropes.

Anyone have any ideas whats wrong with my body?? And know anything I can take to help the pains???

:(

Are you sure you're not getting glutened by something else? I mean, cross-contamination, from some other food, or skin/hair care products, cast irons pans, wooden cutting boards, etc.

Hi! Thanks for replying so soon. Nothing in the last week has changed - ie I still use the same shampoo and beauty products, and on sunday my dad made a completely gluten free meal for us all, so I doubt that there was any cross contamination. Nothing was any different to any other week. It's food for thought though and something I need to address. I just can't understand why at all times it has been a creamy dish that has made me sick, yet I can have milk. Is cream any different to milk? I also eat yoghurt and have no trouble with that!

A lot of time with celiac the damaged villi can't handle the large milk globules for a while if ever. The cream probably has even larger molecules. For myself I only can handle eating nonfat sugar free yogurt for the same reason...the fatty kinds get me. At least you thankfully can eat more milk products so perhaps you can think of other alternatives to replace the cream...

Meanwhile using marshmallow root caps regularly will help reduce inflammation of your villi...

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      Our Functional Medicine doctor has always ordered the Spectracell Test for Micronutrient Deficiencies.  It tests the intracellular levels of the nutrients, not blood levels.  When high dose, targeted supplementation did not resolve the deficiencies after retesting at 6 months and then a year, he ordered genetic tests.  I have a genetic inability to process Vitamin D, B12 and antioxidants, so I am on high doses of those for life.  The rest of the initial deficiencies resolved within 6 months to a year and a good multi vitamin is sufficient to address those.  My husband has historically had high homocysteine levels and his low folate, B 12 and B6  levels are because of his MTHFR gene mutation.  Always good to get to the root cause!

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Idnam! Ranitidine and Famotidine are not proton pump inhibitors. They are H2 blockers. It is true that histamine intolerance is common in the celiac population. We often don't produce enough of a histamine regulator called DAO (diamine oxidase). Not sure, but this may be due to damage to the gut lining by celiac inflammation. You might also want to research MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) as it is often goes hand in glove with histamine intolerance and is actually the root cause. Or, at least that is my understanding. By the way, you can purchase DAO capsules but there is not clear evidence they work.

      Very interesting, @Idnam.  When I was experiencing this problem at its worse, I found high carb meals like lots of rice or too many cookies were a trigger.
