nuts, more often than not, are processed on shared lines with wheat and such.

alexsami Contributor

even if they are all natural??? ugh

yep. Out of curiosity i looked on the back of a container that my family has of them. It had a "warning" lable that had the usual nuts, peanuts, and to my surprise wheat.

Not all nuts are processed where they process wheat.

Try one type of nut at a time. Maybe one or 2 bother you but not all. Not sure how big the bag you ate was but maybe it was too much. Even tho its healthy fat, it is fatty and could be hard to eat too many. Also, if salted, a lot of salt can be irritating.

Lots of things can bother out guts, not just gluten. :angry:

it was a 10 oz bag and i ate quite a bit....i figured it wasnt hurting while i was eating them....so i made a poor decision. On back of the bag it says, manufactured on equipment that processes peanut, other tree nuts.......maybe if i would have had a few, and not the entire bag :( thanks for all responses.....this is just so frustrating :(

Nut allergies are EXTREMELY common. It's most likely that you simply react to nuts. Eliminate them from your diet for a couple weeks; then get some 100% gluten free ones by either shelling them yourself or ordering from Open Original Shared Link to challenge with.

While my gut was in the early healing process, I couldn't handle nuts, even safe ones. My body just couldn't break them down-they're hard to digest. Lay off of them for a while and give your body some time to adjust. It honestly took me a good year, but I was pretty damaged. I was able to handle natural (pure!) nut butters pretty quickly though - almond and sunflower.

If you can find a safe source, try some smaller quantities - maybe softer nuts and seeds like raw sunflower seeds or cashews.

I usually buy mine from nuts online. com

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Vitamin D status in the UK is even worse than the US.  vitamin D is essential for fighting bone loss and dental health and resistance to infection.  Mental health and depression can also be affected by vitamin D deficiency.  Perhaps low D is the reason that some suffer from multiple autoimmune diseases.  In studies, low D is a factor in almost all of the autoimmune diseases that it has been studied in. Even while searching for your diagnosis, testing your 25(OH)D status and improving it my help your general wellness. Vitamin D Deficiency Affects 60% in Britain: How to Fix It?

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive.   I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy?   Thanks for any help

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
