Previously Wheat Intolerant - Now Boom!


AlysounRI

Recommended Posts

AlysounRI Contributor

Hello All:

I am new to the forum.

About 5 years ago, I was diagnosed as wheat intolerant, and now I am a full fledged gluten intolerant person.

I kinda knew that. I feel tons better, I am not experiencing any problems with IBS like I did before and my energy levels

are very strong.

I am happy to embrace the new lifestyle and I was already conversant with and eating lots of alternative grains.

And I do a lot of asian cooking, esp. Indian cooking at home which is relatively gluten free aside from the breads.

So I am not devastated.

But I have a question.

With a lot of the alternative grains, esp. the breads, I am quite gassy and that was not a problem I really had before.

When I eat gluten-free bread, it tends to be rice bread but I also love buckwheat pasta or just straight basmati rice.

But the gassiness is a new thing.

I know that guar gum can have laxative properties but can xanthan gum do the same thing. I had not read anything like that.

I am thinking that some of you might be able to tell me if you had experienced anything like this before.

If you did, did it go away.

And how did you manage to make it go away if it did not go away on its own.

I am a great proponent of Indian cooking as one is able to really avoid gluten.

I am in the process of adapting my beloved chapatis (normally whole wheat flour and gram (ie. chick pea) flour to be buckwheat instead of wheat.

And when I have the recipe and proportions right I will add it to the recipe section.

In the meantime, it's very nice to be here among you all and if anyone is also in Rhode Island and would like to compare notes and likes to bake,

I am happy to reciprocate with some of the gluten-free things I like to make cause I am not a baker, esp. if it contains yeast!!

Try germinated brown rice. Its the only grain I can eat. Regular brown rice is problematic for some reason.

I can certainly try that.

When I eat just rice, I am just fine, somehow I think it could be the gums that is causing that.

But you know sometimes you just want a sandwich with (gluten-free) bread :)

Yes xanthan gum can cause the same problems.

Is your buckwheat pasta 100% buckwheat? I have seen them in the store and they have wheat ingredients with them.

AlysounRI Contributor

Hi Roda:

Yes, my buckwheat noodles and gluten-free.

I made sure of that before I bought them.

I much prefer them to rice pasta and I like the nuttiness of the flavor too.

Thank you for asking.

Do you use the Eden Organics 100% Buckwheat Pasta? I haven't found any other brand that is 100% and the package just went from $7 to $8 at whole foods. They're so much better tasting than they look but literally quadruple the price.

What brand? I want to try some, but can't find any that are gluten free.

      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 suggested it.

      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

      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 have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      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-Free.

      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 if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.
