Can I Eat This


Austin Guy

Recommended Posts

Austin Guy Contributor

I just went gluten free a week ago and feel better than I have in 10 years. Not diagnosed yet, but am absolutely certain gluten tears me up. I now have energy, am not drinking as much coffee, more focused, not eating all the time, my mood is great and my BP and pulse are way down. I think gluten has been putting terrible stress on my body.

So on to my question: I just took something out of the freezer that I cooked a couple of weeks ago and it has macaroni in it. If I pick the macaroni out, can I eat it? I'm unsure of any gluten residue that might be left behind.

Thanks for any feedback.

No you can't eat it and remain gluten free. That macaroni has melted a little bit of flour all in that food. Even if you pick out the big piece you can see, there will be little bits you can't see.

It would have way to much gluten in it to be safe for someone who is Celiac or Gluten Intolerant.

We have to avoid cross contamination in the tiniest of particles.

You might feel lousy for a few days after eating that.

Thanks. I suspected as much. This is going to take a bit of getting used to and I'm sure glad I found this forum. I plan on spending a lot of time here.

I hope you continue to feel better!!!!!

I've never been tested positive for celiac disease, I've had a test, but it was negative. You could easily find your self in this situation, you might get a negative test, but if you were to start eating gluten again, you'd start getting symptoms. I'm also dairy intolerant to an extent, but I get away with the odd bar of ice cream here and there, and the odd biscuit or cake maybe. So I have concluded that although I may actually have celiac disease my body just really doesn't like much wheat/gluten or dairy, so generally I keep well clear.

      But for someone with Barrett's like @Charlie1946, long term PPI therapy might be necessary.

      Aaaackkk!!!  Stop with the Omeprazole!  It's not good, especially if taken for a long period of time!!!   Gerd and Acid Reflux are actually caused by too little digestive enzymes resulting from nutritional deficiencies in Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 that are needed to make digestive enzymes.   Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that has been shown to cause continuing villi damage to the small intestines!        Factors associated with villus atrophy in    symptomatic coeliac disease patients on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28220520/ Proton Pump inhibitors reduce digestive enzymes which results in poorly digested food.  If the food is not broken down by the digestive enzymes, then the nutrients cannot be released from the food and cannot be absorbed by the villi.  Damaged villi cannot absorb nutrients from food.  PPIs block Thiamine B1 transporters, so that thiamine cannot be absorbed.  PPIs reduce the production of the intrinsic factor required for Cobalamine B12 absorption.  The absorption of other vitamins and minerals are affected as well.    The Effects of Proton Pump Inhibitors in Acid Hypersecretion-Induced Vitamin B12 Deficiency: A Systematic Review (2022) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36545170/ Proton Pump Inhibitors like Omeprazole should be used only on a short term basis, like two weeks.  Continued use can cause nutritional deficiencies because PPIs prevent the absorption of vitamins and minerals.      Profound Hypomagnesemia Due to Proton Pump Inhibitor Use-Associated Wernicke’s Encephalopathy: A Case Report on Excitotoxicity https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12618944/    Proton pump inhibitors and risk of vitamin and mineral deficiency: evidence and clinical implications https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4110863/ Vitamin and mineral deficiencies contribute to health problems like Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Chronic Renal Failure and Osteoporosis.    Association between dietary intakes of B vitamins and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in postmenopausal women: a cross-sectional study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10621796/    The association between proton pump inhibitors and hyperparathyroidism: a potential mechanism for increased fracture-results of a large observational cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37530847/ Regular Proton-Pump Inhibitor Intake is Associated with Deterioration of Peripheral Bone Mineral Density, Microarchitecture, and Strength in Older Patients as Assessed by High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HR-pQCT) https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12546302/ Vitamins and minerals are essential to our health and can prevent disease.
