Why Did I Have A Reaction

Maybe somebody can help me figure this out. My stomach was just fine before I had lunch, then I ate a half an avocado and some plain tuna the was packed in water. Almost right away my stomach started to burn. I took a probotic but it still feels like it is on fire and that was 2 1/2 hours ago. I have never had a problem with either of those two foods before. The tuna I know was safe I read the can before I opened it. Just packed in water. I put lime juice on the avocado which I always do.

Was it the combo of the two that didn't mix? UGH. I hate having such a sensative stomach.

Most mainstream tuna companies process tuna products with soy. You could be intolerant to soy. Tuna is also high in glutamic acid and some people react to this.

Sorry, I know how you feel. I have good 1-2 week stretch where I feel good, then something makes me sick. I've just gotten to the point where I don't even mention it anymore to my husband, I don't want to sound like a whiner. It is starting to take its toll though. I'm busy with the kids, so I don't have alot of time to eat anyway. I'm the size of a stick and need calories, but at the same time I don't want to feel crappy the next day so sometimes I just skip meals or eat rice.

Sorry, I totally whined on your post, lol. Anyway, tuna bothers me too. I think it is the soybean oil as well. So that would be my guess.....it's always something, isn't it??? Hope you feel better.

If soy is starting to bother me I think I will just give up eating. I don't have the energy to read labels for one more thing I really don't.

You can always get allergy testing to see if soy is an issue. Also, if you got glutened recently or are still healing, then the high acid content in your lunch might have hurt your tummy. Hope you feel better soon!

Because I react so strongly to soy I have found that I can eat very few factory canned or processed meats. We buy fresh chicken, fish, beef, pork, spend a Saturday to BBQ, broil, or bake as appropriate, and the freeze meal sized portions. A single Saturday can prepare our lunches and dinner meat for a month or more when we do it ahead like that.

I used to do once a month food prep. It was great during soccer season! Just doing all the meats is really a great idea. I usually do most of my week's cooking on the weekend but preparing the meat for a month is a fine idea.

Sometimes I have problems with citrus. Maybe it's a coating? Packed in straw? Citrus intolerance? I avoid it now.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress ...

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. ...

My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
