Reaction To Certain Ingredients?

Hello everyone!

I am curious to see if anyone else has had my experience.

I have been eating Bob's Red Mill bread mix made with my bread machine with no problems at all. I have been using Food for Life brown rice tortillas as a wrap for lunch with no problems. Pamela's baking mix (which rocks by the way) also causes no issues.

Last week, Earthfare was out of the tortillas so I decided to try Kinnikinnick sandwich bread that was in the frozen section. I have been soooooooooo sick! :(

I can't figure out which ingredient is the culprit. There are even some kinds of gluten-free pasta that just kill my stomach when I eat them.

Anyone else ever experience this and have any thoughts?

Thanks!

Well I can't eat most of KINNIKINNICK brand stuff because of the egg content or the risk of egg cc as I am allergic to egg as well as gluten. I looked at the difference in ingredients and noticed there is A LOT MORE STUFF in the KINNIKINNICK brand in comparison to Bob's and Pamela's bread mix! I am not sure which ingredient but if you look... the risks are alot more to choose from. I have problems with many of the prepackaged breads.

KINNIKINNICK:

Ingredients: Water, White Rice Flour, Whole Eggs, Tapioca Starch, Potato Starch, Sugar, Sunflower Oil (May contain Sunflower and/or Canola Oil), Cellulose, Yeast, Dextrose, Glucono Delta Lactone, Sodium Carboxy Methylcellulose, Cellulose, Salt, Pea Protein, Sodium Bicarbonate, Mono and Diglycerides, Vitamin Blend(Thiamine, Vitamin B2, Niacin, Folic Acid, Iron ), Sodium Stearayl Lactylate

Bob's Red Mill gluten-free bread mix

Ingrediens: Garbanzo Bean Flour, Potato Starch, Corn Starch, White Sorghum Flour, Tapioca Flour, Evaporated Cane Juice, Fava Bean Flour, Xanthan Gum, Active Dry Yeast, Potato Flour, Sea Salt, Guar Gum, Soy Lecithin.

Pamela's Baking Mix:

Ingredients

Brown rice flour, white rice flour, cultured buttermilk, natural almond meal (may appear as brown flecks), tapioca starch, sweet rice flour, potato starch, grainless and aluminum free baking powder (sodium bicarbonate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, potato starch), baking soda, sea salt, xanthan gum.

I hope you find what it was and I hope you feel better fast!!!

We certainly are individuals aren't we. :D I have no issues with Kinnickinnick or Pamela's but Bob's makes me curl up in a ball from the pain. I don't tolerate either the bean flour or the sorghum well. I also get ill from soy. It binds me up for days. The bottom line IMHO is that if it bothers you stay away from it. Many of us do have issues with different gluten free ingredients and it can be a chore to figure out what it is that is causing the issue.

I can't eat any of the three :angry:

I'm sensitive to tapioca and legume (pea protein, garbanzo and fava flours, etc). I stick to the Gluten Free Pantry mixes that don't contain those. There are quite a few that don't, actually :)

Soy flour is another thing I watch out for.

      It has been the most terrible illness ever! Going on 3 weeks now… I had chicken pox as a kid… crazy how much havoc this dormant virus has caused after being reactivated! No idea what even caused it to fire back up. I’m scared this pain and sensitivity is just never going to improve or go away

      OKJmartes. Skin and eyes. Also anxiety and frustration. I have read that Celiacs have more skin problems than people who do not have Celiacs. I take increased levels of Vit. D3, very high levels of B12 and an eating part of an avocado every day. KnittyKitty and others here can add what they take for skin health. A Dermatologist might identify the type of skin condition. By eyes you may mean eyesight problems not just irritated, red eyes. It is not very difficult to get a diagnosis of which eye condition is affecting your vision but much more difficult to find an effective remedy. The ophthalmologists I have seen have been only a little helpful. There seems to have been some advances in eye treatments that most of them are completely ignorant of or just won't add to their treatment plans.  Forcertain you may as well buy some remedy from a facebook ad but that is obviously risky and may actually damafe your eyes. However it is known that certain supplements , taken at the effectivelevels do help with eyesight. Two of them are Luten and zanthamin (spelling?)and certain anti-oxidants such as bilberry..    Hope this helps.

      I refused to do the gluten challenge for a long time because I knew how sick I would be: I have always had and still have positive antibodies and have so many symptoms my  GI was 💯 sure I would have a positive biopsy. I didn’t want to make myself sick to get a negative biopsy and be more confused by all this.  He couldn’t guarantee me a negative biopsy meant no celiac bc there may not be damage yet or it’s possible to miss biopsies where there’s damage but he was so sure and convinced me I needed that biopsy I went back on gluten. It was a terrible experience! I took pictures of the bloating and swelling and weight gain during the challenge. I gained 9 pounds, looked pregnant, was in pain , couldn’t work or function without long naps and the brain fog was debilitating. And in the end he didn’t get a positive biopsy… so I wish I had never wasted my time or health going through it. I haven’t been truly straightened  out since and I am currently battling a shingles infection at 43 and I can’t help but wonder if the stress I put my body under to try and get an official diagnosis has caused all this. Best of luck to you - whatever you decide. It’s not a fun thing to go through and I still don’t have the answers I was looking for

      It's completely understandable to struggle with the gluten challenge, especially when it impacts your health and studies so significantly. Your experience of feeling dramatically better without gluten is a powerful clue, whether it points to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It's very wise of you and your doctor to pause the challenge until your holidays, prioritizing your immediate well-being and exams. To answer your questions, yes, it is possible for blood tests to be negative initially and become positive later as the disease progresses, which is why the biopsy remains the gold standard. Many, many people find the gluten challenge incredibly difficult due to the return of debilitating symptoms, so you are certainly not alone in that struggle. Wishing you the best for your exams and for obtaining clearer answers when you're able to proceed.

      It's smart that you're seeing the gastroenterologist tomorrow. While it's possible this is a severe and persistent inflammatory reaction to gluten, the fact that the pain is movement-dependent and localized with tenderness is important for your specialist to hear. It could indeed be significant inflammation, but it's also worth ruling out other overlapping issues that can affect those with celiac disease. Is it possible you got some gluten in your diet somehow? This could be a possible trigger. Hopefully, tomorrow's appointment will provide clearer answers and a path to relief so you can get back to your lectures and enjoy your weekend. Wishing you all the best for the consultation.
