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.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
