Olive Oil

Has anyone else had problems with olive oil. I didn't realize that it wasn't 100% olive oil so possibly it had an oil we are supposed to

avoid. I am new to this and still learning every day.

thanks

I don't know what "olive oil" you are using, but the olive oil I use is 100% pure olive oil. If something else is present, it would have to be declared in the ingredient list (at least in the US and Canada). Oil from another source would have an explicit name (e.g. peanut oil) or just be listed as "vegetable oil." But "olive oil" as an ingredient can only refer to pure olive oil.

ya, im pretty sure it's ONLY Olive oil- and i sure as hell hope so... cause i have to avoid a lot of things in addition to gluten. i did see an article that exposed that the food companies were being dishonest about grading their olive oil. ie: some bottles that say Xtra Virgin are not really xtra virgin, but just regular.

I have had problems with olive oil. I don't know if it is from adulteration or not. Here is a source Open Original Shared Link

I did find an olive oil I could tolerate after several attempts. I am very sensitive, hopefully you will find one more easily.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

      How can you be negative for HLA?   What markers did you have here? Curiouser and curiouser...
