Red Meat Or Hamburger


NateJ

Recommended Posts

NateJ Contributor

Does anyone have a problem digesting red meat specifically hamburger?

I ate a hamburger last (no bread) night and shortly after finishing my ab started pulsating.

My wife said it felt like a baby kicking. It lasted until i went to sleep.

It actually got sort of violent a few times, making me jump. It was like i could feel

it traveling through me all the way. Very strange, never happened to me before.

I ate a steak the other night and didn't have any issue.

Where was the hamburger from? Was there any filler added?

Did it have soy in it? Soy hamburgers do that to my stomach.

just from the grocery store. It was in the meat section. like already made patties. Not the ones in the boxes

but the ones in a meat package. It just said 100% USDA beef on it.

Could have been cross-contamination, but otherwise I don't have any insight.

did u say- "already made patties" ?? but NOT the ones in the box? so the meat dep. people made them?

cause i was gonna add that those ones in the boxes- or the premade burgers that MOST restaurants serve now- give me the worst stomach ache- they're so bad quality- that they have to overcook them- im assuming they're made of "factory beef" meaning they come from the few factories in america with thousands of cattle in one burger- they totally kill my stomach- and i avoid them at all cost.

but if you got it freshly ground/premade at the store- then they should be better. unless you yourself like your burgers pretty well-done. when beef is well-done or over done- they're really hard to digest. red meat is much easier to digest if done medium rare or medium.

I have trouble digesting meat too. After I eat meat my tummy rumbles and it feels like a baby is inside kicking. I can put my hand on my stomach and it bops and hops around. I probably eat beef once every 3 or 4 months.

I changed over to turkey burger instead. The grease from regular burger is hard on my stomach. Symptoms just like what that person above posted. When they make premade burger patties, they put seasonings which often have wheat and maltodexrin in them. Not good. They also use the fattiest meat because it grills up better as well. Try making your own home made burger from 93% lean and try the turkey burger as well. I bet that will help you greatly. Watch out for seasonings too. They have hidden ingredients.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
