What Foods Are You Intolerant To?

I know there are a lot of people out there who have problems with dairy, corn, soy etc. I am wondering what your intolerances/allergies are. Have you had testing for these or do you just know through trial and error?

Even if you are only intolerant to gluten, please respond because I am trying to get a picture of how many people have multiple intolerances and how many just can't do gluten.

Gluten, soy, corn, rice, (all grains) red meat, shellfish, nightshades, cruciferous veggies, tapioca, and now, dairy :( . The last one upset me so much, losing my cheese...I had already given up cottage cheese and ice cream.

I also do not use high fructose corn syrup, caffeine, and very little sugar...only natural sugars in fruits.

To be honest, I eat a fairly healthy diet. Chicken breast, cod, talipia, tuna, peas, carrots, green beans, and many fruits, always fresh or packed in their own juice. I also use peanut butter, Skippy Naturals, or Jif Naturals...and I can eat Utz popato chips.

These's actually a lot left to eat--when I was first diagnosed, I found I was intolerant to dairy, corn and eggs in addition to the foods I listed in my post above.

Even then, I ate meats, poultry, walnuts and almonds, fruit, vegies (except legumes), white and sweet potatoes, Lay's Stax Chips, almond and rice milks--which were very useful in recipes, etc., olive oil, tea, rice. I used Enjoy Life foods, also. I even baked a little bit using rice flour and potato starch.

It took a while--I'm gluten-free for 4 years now, but I was gradually able to reintroduce eggs (in moderation--as part of a recipe), corn, and finally just recently dairy :D . I completely cut out the things I was sensitive to for well over 3 years.

I still can not tolerate legumes or tapioca--those I may never be able to eat since they cause me worse reactions than even gluten. I think I might actually be allergic to tapioca.....I stay far, far away..... :rolleyes:

Well, I eat all fresh meats - nothing processed, fish, fresh or frozen veggies, homemade yogurt with honey, all fresh and frozen fruit, (with no sugar or any additivies,) except for the few I'm allergic too. I snack on apples, carrots, olives, dill pickles, I also eat lots of onions - very good for the immune system.

I've never felt better and have tons of energy!

Dairy (cow & goat)

Eggs

Bakers Yeast

Brewers Yeast

Pinto Beans

Scallops

Clams

...the list goes on

I find it very challenging to stick to a gluten, dairy, & egg free diet. If anyone has any suggestions or recipes that they love, I am all ears!

Thanks,

Maria

Gluten

Dairy (casein)

Nitrates/ites

Sulfates/ites

MSG

Pistachios (maybe almonds too now)

Fibrous vegetables (like lettuce) unless cooked to death

Some food colors (reds and yellows)

I am down to fresh fruits, vegetables, fresh meats, potatoes, rice and legumes. The only processed gluten-free foods I buy are peanut butter, frozen waffles and gluten-free flour blends. I make my own sauces and dressings.

Gluten

Dairy lactose and casein (experimenting with it a little now though after 12 years)

carrots

coffee

tea

I avoid soy but don't have a reaction to it.

I rarely add sugar to anything.

Sulfites, I am still not positive about them.

Hayfever, scratch tested positive to trees and grasses and kitty cats and woofie dogs. However my allergies are much better now after being gluten-free.

Wow, so many people here react to so many foods!

I have intolerances to:

gluten

soy - I believe this caused my blunted villi, so not sure if this would make it an allergy or not.

dairy

dates

and trying to figure out if I have an intolerance to legumes? I react (GI symptoms) to peanut butter and hummus (in addition to soy) and someone just mentioned that the connection could be legumes.

Jerseyangel (or anyone) - can I ask how you react to legumes and how you figured out it was that whole family you react to?

I found out yesterday from allergy skin testing that I'm allergic to: beef, lamb, pork, egg, milk, wheat, rye, grapefruit, orange, lettuce, cabbage, potato, celery, green pepper, peaches, strawberry, and mustard. I've been wheat free and dairy light (only butter) for a year now so the rest won't be so bad except eggs and potatoes.

I react to legumes with severe nausea and stomach pain. The nausea is overwhelming, and really sets me back for a day or two.

I figured it out by process of elimination. Unfortunately, it didn't occur to me at the time that green beans were actually legumes too, so it was a while before I cut them out completely. When I did, the difference was remarkable.

Still trying to pinpoint my other intolerances. So far:

Soy

Casein

Chocolate (tried chocolate again last night....makes my heart race)

MSG

Vinegar

Peanut butter (maybe???)

Caffeine

I'm still in the process, it's been frustrating and tricky. My other intolerances cause my heart to race, which completely wipes me out. What's funny is that I've been gluten free for over 2 years now, I didn't expect other intolerances to pop up this late! Right now I'm just sticking with fresh food w/out spices or sauces, it's a bit boring, but better than being sick.

      Ibuprofen

      By cristiana · Posted

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      Knowing what to do when feeling unwell.

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      The Happy Tart review

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
