Well now the D is back. I drank apple juice (Apple and Eve brand) during lunch.

I'm hoping it's fr the apple juice. Do you get the D from apple juice? I thought apples was supposed to do the opposite!

Thanks

u might have a problem with fructose. google Fructose Malabsorption. i think it's based on new studies out of Australia... but after months of being doubled over in pain- i found info on it- and it completely rang true for me. i still have to eliminate some other things-probably some sugar & grains, and of course dairy.. BUT- i can tell u- since i stopped eating my daily pears, and also avoided other high fructose things like dates, apple juice, HFCS, and too much in one sitting of bananas or prunes-> i feel SO MUCH better! i didnt get the "D", and my "movements" were fantastic- but i was doubled over in painful cramping- it was horrible.

and i never used to have a problem with apple juice.. but i think with Gluten Intolerance-> our systems go thru phases (temporary OR permanent) where it may be hard to digest other things

Thanks, I've never had problems w/ applejuice or any juice before, I hope I don't have that fructose thing! Did you see my other thread? I was having problems last week so I thought my aggravated stomach couldn't handle apple juice today.

When I see my GI at the end of the month I'll ask him to test for the fructose intolerance.

My 5 yr old son and 8 yr old daughter get D from apple juice. Always have! It is the only thing that does it so I don't know what it is about the apple. They have other Frutose things with no problem.

hmmm curious.

I hope you feel better!

My son gets D from apple juice too! Same thing, always has. Even as a little baby, people would say "don't you give him a juice bottle?" And I'd say "not unless I want to dehydrate and kill him!" :0) Just a few weeks ago, shortly after I was diagnosed with Celiac, that same son, now 11, decided he wanted to try gluten-free too. He's feeling so much better! He used to fart up a storm and complain of back pain, tummy pain, D, and was generally very cranky and emotional. Since going wheat free he's like a new kid! Thinking back to that apple juice thing....I wonder if he's had food allergies all his life, and I just didn't notice. O no, now I have "Mom guilt!"

Regardless.... I think getting D from juice is pretty common. It's a TON of sugar, despite it appearing "healthy." Lots of manufacturers make lower sugar versions of juices now. Perhaps you can try those? Now I'm not sure about the gluten content etc.... That would have to be researched, but I know that neither me nor my son do well with juices. Get well soon!

The one I had is organic(Apple and Eve), I only buy organic everything. And it has no added sugar, the only sugar in it is whatever sugar that was in the apples.

Anyway, I only had one itty bitty tetra pack yesterday(the one w/ a straw). We'll see today how it goes, I think I'm ok.

it might just be that it's just too much fiber for someone with a compromised digestive system to handle... not a big deal. when my little brother was a toddler- whenever he had "C", he would scream for my mom to get him apple juice to help him go.

maybe u could try mixing it with water- or waiting till he's more stable... or just picking a different juice from now on... (and not Pear juice- even more fructose AND fiber than apple)

I didn't have any today, I had some grape juice, not apple :).

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

      I worried at one point on my journey whether I had MS, having many of the symptoms myself. However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD. Thiamine deficiency symptoms overlap with MS symptoms, including changes on brain MRIs. Thiamine deficiency affected my eyes (light sensitivity),...

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
