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.

Okay, I will start you off:

Lactose (improving now)

Gluten

Corn (although I can handle non-GM corn)

Soy, including soy lecithin

Potatoes and peppers (I tend to avoid the other nightshades too)

Citric acid

Caffeine

Non-organic beef

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.

Holy cow. What do you people eat? :(

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.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens. I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium. I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells. When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
