Glutened Or Allergies?

Seems like the harder I try to get off gluten, the more "allergies" appear. There are things I've been eating all along that are considered gluten free, but now seem to cause me problems:

Caffein

Coconut Oil

Corn on the cob

Quinua

And these are only the obvious ones.

I have only enough coffee grounds for about 2 more cups...I'm going to savor them! It'll be interesting to save for later and see how it affects me...a tell tale sign!

Went to see a dietitian Friday. She suggested I take a look at the blood type diet.

Another journey.

Glutened or allergies? It is quite common to have more food problems to crop up after we go gluten free or maybe was not aware of them earlier. Wish you well in your search for better health, you are in the right place for answers. :)

Yeah, I was the same: went off gluten, and a whole bunch of foods suddenly messed me up. :(

I feel your pain. ;)

But re: the dietician and the suggested diet? The blood type diet has been pretty seriously criticized for its lack of any real supporting evidence, by most Dieticians along with doctors and scientists. I'd recommend checking the diet out and your Dietician's credentials, possibly too. <_<

Yes! It's very scary to hear a dietitian recommending this. You need to find a better dietitian.

      Water filters are a potential problem for Celiac Disease

      Library paste and paper mache. I have in passing read of wheat based glue used to glue fish tank filters together so it is not surprising they might be in refridgerator filters. Seems the issue with bottled water would be at the personal filters rather than the mass filtering. Just have to boycott the brands that effect you. Gatorade drinks all have...

      Water filters are a potential problem for Celiac Disease

      What non organic or nonorganic molecules from a plastic bottle of water can trigger a reaction that I have only experienced during an auto immune experience? There really should not be any organic molecules in such a bottle. I seen a thread where it was mentioned that his refrigerator water filter tested positive for gluten when he had it checked. If...

      Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water

      It’s understandable to want to be cautious, especially after experiencing symptoms. However, there is currently no scientific evidence that reverse osmosis or standard activated carbon water filters expose people to gluten in amounts that would trigger celiac disease. Gluten is a protein, and if any starch-based binder were used in filter manufacturing, ...

      Yeast extract

      It’s understandable to look for bigger explanations when you’re dealing with complex symptoms, but the current scientific consensus does not support the idea that celiac disease evolved as a defense against Candida. Celiac disease is a well-characterized autoimmune condition triggered specifically by gluten in genetically susceptible individuals (HLA-DQ2...

      9 y/o Son Diagnosed with Celiac Disease; Persistent Symptoms: Does this Sound Familiar?

      It sounds like you’ve put a lot of effort into tracking patterns, and that kind of awareness can be helpful. With celiac disease specifically, though, the only confirmed immune trigger is gluten. Reactions to dairy are common after diagnosis because intestinal damage can temporarily reduce lactase, leading to lactose intolerance — but that’s different from ...

      Library paste and paper mache.  I have in passing read of wheat based glue used to glue fish tank filters together so it is not surprising they might be in refridgerator filters. Seems the issue with bottled water would be at the personal filters rather than the mass filtering.  Just have to boycott the brands that effect you.  Gatorade drinks all have either gums, modified starches or stevia that might be affecting you.  Looking for energy or hydration try Red Bull.  It has the vitamins, minerals, antioxidant Taurine, sugar and glucose to process the sugar from mouth to ATP and clean up. Taurine is essential for protecting mitochondria from damage, such as from reactive oxygen species (ROS) or calcium overload. If you are exclusively drinking bottled water you may want to consider taking Lithium Orotate 5 mg.  We need about 1 mg a day of Lithium and mostly it is gotten from ground water.  Lithium deficiency can cause anxiety and suicide.  I find it helpful.

There really should not be any organic molecules in  such a bottle. I seen a thread where it was mentioned that his refrigerator water filter tested positive for gluten when he had it checked. If I went to physician to get checked for other possible triggers from a water bottle, I don’t think that will go anywhere. Again, distilled water containers cause no reactions. I’m not an industry expert, but something is there.  I don’t think that this is a case of microplastics causing this. Too bad we can’t call upon some third party investigation.

      It’s understandable to want to be cautious, especially after experiencing symptoms. However, there is currently no scientific evidence that reverse osmosis or standard activated carbon water filters expose people to gluten in amounts that would trigger celiac disease. Gluten is a protein, and if any starch-based binder were used in filter manufacturing, it would not pass through RO membranes or remain in finished bottled water at clinically meaningful levels. Plain water — filtered, RO, or bottled — does not contain gluten unless it is intentionally added (which would require labeling). Steam-distilled water is certainly safe, but it is not considered medically necessary for people with celiac disease. If reactions are occurring, it may be helpful to explore other potential explanations with a healthcare provider rather than assuming filter-related gluten exposure.

      It’s understandable to look for bigger explanations when you’re dealing with complex symptoms, but the current scientific consensus does not support the idea that celiac disease evolved as a defense against Candida. Celiac disease is a well-characterized autoimmune condition triggered specifically by gluten in genetically susceptible individuals (HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8). While some laboratory studies have shown that certain Candida proteins (like Hwp1) share limited sequence similarities with gluten or tissue transglutaminase (tTG), that does not mean Candida causes celiac disease or commonly produces false-positive tTG tests in clinical practice. Anti-tTG IgA remains a highly specific and validated marker for celiac when used appropriately (especially alongside total IgA testing and, when indicated, biopsy). IgG antibodies to Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ASCA) are more commonly associated with Crohn’s disease and are not considered diagnostic for celiac. There is ongoing research into microbiome interactions and immune cross-reactivity, but at this time there is no evidence that yeast exposure from foods triggers celiac autoimmunity in people without gluten exposure. If symptoms persist despite a strict gluten-free diet, it’s best to work with a gastroenterologist to rule out other conditions such as IBD, SIBO, non-celiac food intolerances, or refractory celiac disease rather than assuming a fungal-driven mechanism.

With celiac disease specifically, though, the only confirmed immune trigger is gluten. Reactions to dairy are common after diagnosis because intestinal damage can temporarily reduce lactase, leading to lactose intolerance — but that’s different from casein sensitivity. IgG food panels, including yeast, are generally considered markers of exposure rather than proof of clinical intolerance. Aged cheeses like Irish cheddar are typically gluten-free, though they do contain casein and natural cultures. If symptoms are strong and repeatable, it may be worth working with a gastroenterologist or allergist to sort out true allergies, intolerances, or other GI conditions rather than assuming multiple cross-reactive immune triggers.
