Glutened By Something I Ate Safely Last Week

I just pulled some brisket out of the freezer that I cooked last week. Ate some with the same BBQ sauce I had last week. Ate nothing else, used clean utensils, but had significant glutening symptoms within 30 minutes. Ate the same stuff the same way 3 times a week ago and was fine.

Any ideas as to what might have happened?

Could the BBQ sauce have gone bad or gotten contamination somehow? Did you have to slice the brisket on an old cutting board or reheat it in old tupperware with scrathes or in an old scrathed non-stick pan?

Good call on the cutting board. It was one I used to slice home-made bread months ago. Must have contaminated some of the meat. It is amazing that gluten could be on something I have washed and washed and not used in months, but that must be it.

Anyone else use the BBQ sauce? We have had the tutorial on pour the sauce from a couple of inches above the glutenous burger bun. My boys remember well. They actually pour onto the meat not the bun. Hub forgets. Touching the sauce bottle to the food isn't a good idea anyway.

Anyway, you have to watch out for those sneaky gluten b$$$$$$$s! :ph34r:

I'd like to add that Celiac Disease is an Autoimmune Disease. Once the autoimmune mechanism has been triggered, other things other than gluten may set it off as well. Your symptoms may have been caused by your immune system attacking your body, but not necessarily triggered by gluten. Other things that can set off a sensitive immune system are infections, stress, environmental toxins. Remember, it's not just the gluten. You have to care for your immune system as well.

You have to care for your immune system as well.

I get so frustrated I could cry sometimes when my husband has distinctive gluten reactions and I can't for the life of me determine where the gluten came from. What else should we be doing to care for his immune system? What are some other triggers common to people with gluten intolerance?

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
