Maze Starch

Hello. I am new to this forum. I am wheat intolerent I know that for sure but have never had any test. I live in the UK and its so hard to get tested for these things. Now I find I am lactose intolerence so I don't eat wheat gluten or dairy pretty boring. I found some really nice bread call "GENIUS" it tasted just like nice white bread you can hardly tell the differance but after eating it felt so ill, pains in my joints could hardly walk, looked in the ingrediance and the only thing I can find that might do it is maze starch. Is there anyone else on here that is intolerent to maze starch? and is it gluten free?

Is one off the symptoms of celiac pains in the joints as well as tiredness? I would also like to know if there is anyone who is intolerence to corn?

If by "maze" you mean maize, that is corn and it is gluten-free. Some people are intolerant to corn, but that is an issue distinct from celiac disease.

Though it is possible that you are intolerant to corn, how do you feel after eating other corn products, such as corn snacks, cereal, cornbread, or homemade popcorn?

There is also a possibility of CC (Cross-Contamination), so the bread might not have been gluten-free enough.

Joint pain and tiredness are 2 of nearly 300 symptoms of celiac disease. Open Original Shared Link Because my celiac disease went undiagnosed for over 10 years there was a lot of damage done to the small intestine thus reducing its absorption ability. At present i am intolerant of (besides wheat, barley, rye, oates and their product) CORN, rice, potatoes (except new potatoes),sucrose, dairy of any kind, legumes, red meats, nuts and nut oils and most other oils(except coconut oil, grape seed oil, hemp oil and virgin olive oil). These dietary exemptions may seem a bit extreme, but i follow a well planned SCD and have been on it for close to 2 years without any problems. Take heart though for i know that eventually i will be able to tolerate everything i have mentioned i had to eliminate, except -of course- wheat, barley, rye, oates and their products. These i can never eat- i do not miss them, they were slowly killing me.

Hello. Thanks for the info. Can you tell me what SCD means please.

SCD means Specific Carbohydrate Diet. There are several posted. The one i follow is located at Open Original Shared Link . There is also a support website for those who follow the diet. It can be found at Open Original Shared Link With the help of both websites i have been able to compile a menu of over 600 recipes that are tailored to my specific dietary needs. If i can't make it, i don't eat it. There is very little i can't make. Eating "SCD" is a 180 degree change in lifestyle and diet. I feel very fortunate to have found this life saving dietary change.

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Gigi2025 · Posted

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol
