Anyone Reactive To Ginger?!?

I'm on a highly restrictive elimination diet. Been doing okay, except that most recently I've been experiencing cramping and diarrhea after eating tuna fish. My body's not used to so much fish, I think. I'm going to change over to mung beans.

Today I woke up and felt nauseous and generally yucky again. :(

The only thing I've added has been ginger tea (for the past 2 days). I cut up some ginger and boil it in a pot to make the tea. Could it be ginger? I thought ginger was supposed to be good for digestion, and recommended for elimination diets?

I don't react to ginger. However, I have diagnosed allergies to vanilla and nutmeg. I also have strong intestinal reactions after eating those. So you certainly could have an allergy to ginger. I was diagnosed by the ELISA (blood test) spice panel. Rather than using a very restrictive elimination diet, which might even contain some of your undiagnosed allergies, you could just get an IgG or IgA antibody allergy test for commonly eaten foods (which the ELISA offers). Then you wouldn't have to guess what's causing your reaction symptoms.

I don't know about reactions to ginger, but is the tuna you are eating soy-free? There are only a couple ones that are. So that might be something to look into as well.

Ginger is supposed to stop D and sooth your stomach so it seems unlikely. But then again if someone had told me a year ago that a piece of bread could make me sick I would have laughed at them. So anything is possible. :unsure:

      I agree, and generally it means that it isn't working in a high enough percentage of participants to continue pursuing it.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Celiac symptoms

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill
