Any Other Foods To Cut Out When You First Go Gluten Free?

I have been gluten free for about 4 months now. Occasionally when I eat fresh garlic my stomach bloats. A friend of mine told me there are certain foods that you should cut out (besides casein, soy, eggs...and other common allergen foods)that your body reacts to as though you've eaten gluten. She said garlic is one of them. Is this the case? And are there any others that I should avoid?

My best friend has absolutely NO issues with gluten. BUT, he has stomach issues like you did when he eats uncooked garlic. Here's the kicker.... he has no problems if it is cooked. He can eat those carmelized/baked garlic cloves that you see at Italian restaurants and be fine. But, raw garlic in... say... salsa puts him over the edge.

See what the cooked does to you before you cut it out completely.

Yeah...I think I will have to do cooked garlic until my leaky gut clears up. I didn't always have this problem-so I am assuming that is what's causing it. Thanks for your response!

If garlic is an issue, keep an eye on onions. Lots of people have a cross-intolerance.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
