Can you eat coconut oil when avoiding FODMAP's? I know coconut cream/milk are no-no's, but wasn't sure about oil.

I'm craving some thai chicken :P

I was on the Australian yahoo group recently and the update from Sue Shephard was that coconut is now ok, cream/milk/flakes/oil.

To celebrate I had a small amount of Coconut Bliss icecream.

Broccoli also got the ok but I'm not celebrating that one :P

Interesting & thanks Kayo!

Everything regarding FODMAP on the internet is contradicting. Some sights say no tomatoes, some say they are fine. Ditto about broccoli, kiwi fruit, grapes and a few others. I'm so confused :blink:

What about peppers? Poblano? Capsicum are supposed to be okay?

I agree - it's so contradictory!! That's why I stick to the information that comes from Australia, Monash University, and Sue Shephard in particular. They're the pioneers in fructmal and have the latest and most accurate info.

The related yahoo group is my 'go to' place to ask questions. The site also has lots of articles, lists, recipes, etc. I ordered the Monash booklet so I would have a handy guide.

I also like the book "IBS - Free at Last" by Patsy Catsos. The information is the same as the Australian info.

On top of that each of us are different. Someone might be able to eat tomatoes and someone else can't. It's such a long process to figure these things out.

However, in general fresh tomatoes are ok in moderation but things like ketchup and tomato paste contain a lot of fructose because the tomato is concentrated. I've avoided both but I have had small amounts of tomatoe sauce and salsa.

Peppers in general are ok too, including the spicy ones. I haven't had any issues with peppers.

I can send you my excel spreadsheet if you like. It has safe, questionable and not safe foods listed.

YEAH! I just ordered the IBS - Free at Last book!!! Patsy mentioned she only used the latest research from Australia to write the book, so I'm glad I picked this one. I was going to order the one from Sue Shepherd but she mentions that most of it is brand specific to Australia....but, I guess the fruits & veggies list would be accurate! I'm going to look up the yahoo group too.

Send me that excel spreadsheet if you don't mind. I'll PM you my email. Thanks so much. I'm already feeling much better, but that's only because I'm avoiding nearly EVERYTHING! But, it sure has been nice not feeling bloated, crampy and running to the pot every so often :blink:

Thanks!!!

I think she mentions it in the book but I spaced on it.

Cheers

      Fighting for a name

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
