Has anyone reintroduced corn and / or rice successfully??

I have been totally grain free for about 7 weeks . This past weekend I was not feeling well ( JUST the flu :P ) and I wanted some rice ,,,so I had some :o not good . Maybe I didnt wait long enough,,

We use a combination of re-introduction challenge and repeat alergy testing to track our progress with our food allergies. After avoiding for many months to a year, we were able to stop reacting to some and get them back into our diets but not with others, yet. With my son and corn we re-introduced and seemed to get a reaction and symptoms so just to double check, I left it out again for a while and the re-introduced again and didn't notice the symptoms so we added it back to his diet, although I still kept contol of how much-, for example, permanently switched to potato starch instead of corn in gluten-free baking, both homemade and products. When he was re-tested, his corn was still the same level reaction as the previous year so we are trying to avoid it for a longer period of time and see if we can at least get his test reaction down a notch. It's a tough one to avoid. We are just avoiding the protein containing ingredients, not corn syrup and the like. Check your meds too. The company that makes one of my son's allergy meds won't disclose whether or not their ingredients are corn containing. :angry:

No, I don't think you waited long enough. I think you should wait at least six months.

I was hoping that with the Soy ,Corn and Nightshades completely out of my diet that Rice would not be an problem ...I agree it was probably to soon <_<

      I've never had an issue this side of the pond. If I'm out I drink Bulmers Cider. Sometimes draft and sometimes bottled. The draft cider lines are for Cider only.

      Hi everyone do you know whether when you get a draft cider if there is a chance that it runs through the same tubing as a beer did sometime prior?  the reason I’m asking is that I’m trying to eliminate a source of hidden gluten that I think hits me about once a month. And I have a suspicion it might be cider from the draft at certain bars. When I am out, if I decide to drink, I usually order a cider brand that I know is gluten free.    what I’ve noticed is that a couple times when I got a draft cider, I got symptoms of being  glutened that night and the day after. This doesn’t seem to happen with all times I drink cider. I had a draft at a very clean brewery and I didn’t react from that, which is what made me start to wonder. Does anyone know if this is a possible source of getting glutened? I am like 99% sure that this is the cause and I think I’ll switch to bottle/can only from here on out, but would be interested if others experienced the same thing (or work in a bar and know how this works). Thanks!

      Thank you for the update @Rejoicephd it is good to know that you may have some answers.  Keep up the good work with your diet, and do let us know if you do get a firm diagnosis.  I took so long to feel better and for my TTG levels to normalise,  but got there in the end, so also bear in mind it does take longer for some of us.

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation!  After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right?  Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it.  She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom of the ingredients XANTHAN GUM. There's our #1 suspect again!  So by way of experimenting, she decided to try making a loaf of bread with just regular white flour like she used to do and see what happened; the familiar smell hit me when I walked in the door last night and I sat down to eat this still warm, fresh goodness - I thought even if I have to take Imodium sandwiches, it will be worth it 😋 No ill effects, either overnight or today!  Half the loaf is now gone because I had some for supper, saving just one last slice for breakfast in the morning` - I've used the bathroom once and that was normal, so maybe it is not the gluten after all? Can't wait to try a beer! 😁

      Unfortunately, the development of celiac disease usually is not an end in and of itself. It usually brings along friends, given time. It is at heart an immune system dysfunction which often embraces other immune system dysfunctions as time goes on.
