My son was just diagnosed with eosinophilgastro gastritis. He was allergy tested and was positive for wheat, corn, milk, tree nuts, tomatoes and oranges. His GI doc wants him to be gluten free and feels this will help him.

A couple of questions:

How long does it take to become "clean" of toxins?

How do you handle the vomiting? He is vomiting many times a day. How long to let his stomach relax? And what to try eating first?

Thank you for your feedback! :)

Hi Elburn,

Not really sure where I got this list, but I've kept a copy in my files for future reference. It is one of the best "lists" I've found yet. Hope this helps!

what a great list. If he needs to stay gluten free, but he is also allergic to corn, should we eliminate the items on this list that have corn?

Of course you should eliminate all corn products. My suggestion is to do a little research on corn intolerances, read the labels and get rid of those "corn based" items. This is a basic Celiac List that I have used in the past. I don't have any other "poison foods" that I am aware of, so this list works for me. Print yourself a copy and scratch off all items that are corn based.

Another good site is posted below. You may want to check this link out also. When I was first diagnosed, I printed a copy of this list and took it everywhere with me. They have several good suggestions on this list also. Copy and paste this site in your address box. (This list is somewhat long to print)

How long to get rid of toxins? I have no idea. What to try eating first? I'd guess some gentle, plain, white rice. Maybe cook it with "too much" water and add a few vegetables to make it a rice soup. That might settle a tummy. Maybe saute some vegetables. Maybe make your own french fries if he just needs something that tastes good - but the oil might be too rich if he's that sensitive still. Many times celiacs need time to heal before we can handle eggs, dairy, or soy, so I'd probably want to avoid those things for a while, too. I keep coming back to rice and bananas when I'm having trouble. And fresh or canned vegetables, and fruits - but canned fruits do better because the fibers, etc., have been broken down a bit in the process and they simply taste more "gentle". It took me a while before I could handle any fresh fruits and I still have to be careful. I'd suggest rice, bananas, vegetables, canned fruit. These suggestions are just from my own very rough experiences... there is no medical background in this at all. Good luck to you!

I'm going to bet that if you eliminate his allergens, his vomitting will show a marked improvement. Start off with very simple whole foods that you prepare yourself, meat, vegetables, fruits, rice and beans. Of course nothing he tested postive to. Clean out your spice cabinet, throwing out anything that contains gluten and his other allergens and any spice you might have double dipped a contaminated spoon into. Then just prepare those whole foods with safe seasonings. When you've mastered that and his health is improving, then add other foods you feel are safe one at a time only every few days. That way if something new bothers him you'll know it right away. It wouldn't hurt to keep a food diary also. This can help with multiple food sensitivities and narrowing down his problem foods.

Good luck. It sounds like your dr is on top of it. That is great!

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
