No Nightshades...

Hi.

I know I have a problem with tomatoes. Potatos make me really bloated and sometimes not feeling well.

I already cannot use Tapioca Flour and Arrowroot so my only two starches left are Corn and Potato Starch. Do you think it is bad if I keep using both of these? Main concern is the Potato Starch.

My husband and I are trying to be Nightshade Free for different reasons but I was cooking the other day and added Corn and Potato Starch to the rolls I was making then was oh no .... Potato Starch.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

What do you do??

OH.... Then the shredded cheese we got last night I saw in the ingredients Potato Flour (or starch can't remember) Don't know what to do. I seem to only really show a reaction to eating Potatos maybe the Starch is okay or just not really as obvious?

Thanks :)

Lots of stuff in this thread from '05: https://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/lofivers...php/t10154.html

Sorry I have no further insight; mercifully, this isn't one of the problems I have.

Thank you very much! I saved it to look at later after dinner... :D

Gah!!! Potato starch :angry: I don't do nightshades, and just find out about two weeks ago that it was the potato starch that was causing me to itch for the last 20 months (after the psoriasis quit itching four months ago). I hadn't even thought about it.....dunno why. Sure makes life difficult when you don't do corn or soy either. Luckily I love buckwheat and sorghum, and am about to try Teff though we don't get it down under. Of course we don't get sorghum yet, either, but they're working on it. I take it back with me (on international you still get a decent weight allowance). But anyway, no more potato starch for me. A big uopened bag of Pamela's baking mix, anyone??? :lol:

I am both corn and potato free, mostly. This is strange, I can eat potato chips., only one brand now though, UTZ's. A nutritionist told me the process they use for making potato chips may be removing the part of a potato that bothers me. I can't use potato flour, yet potato starch in cheese didn't seem to bother me. I can't have corn, but a little cornstarch in a product didn't bother me.

Now, I can't have dairy anymore, so, I really do not get potato starch in anything, since I can't have cheese. :(

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.
