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.

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
