Lays Stax

I know that Lays Stax are gluten free (suppose to be anyway) but I have been eating them with my lunch. (plain turkey, lettuce and fruit and Lays Stax and I have been getting D every single day right after I eat those chips. Yesterday I skipped the chips no D today I ate them D. Obviously, I am not going to eat them anymore. I know they are gluten free but something in them is making me sick. Maybe it's the soy or that they are so heavily processed. Has anyone else had a reaction to these chips?

Back to homemade popcorn...sigh......

I did edit this because I did some research and found that the Stax are often CC with milk. Makes sense now as I have a casein issue.

The casein might do it.

Yeah most of the varieties besides the plain have dairy in them. They all have soy too. I don't get D with them but I get my soy syptoms-fatigue and headaches and I also feel congested when eating--perhaps a reaction to the dairy cc for me. If you did not react to your homemade chips then you know it is not the potatoes, the salt or the amount of oil bothering you.

I think I need to start posting in the super sensitive section! Dairy really gets me badly. Oh well my homemade chips are better anyway.

Thanks for your help.

You know when I was first diagnosed with a serious dairy allergy (my response is anaphylactic not digestive) I still wasn't worried about cc in the same way as gluten. But I found out the hard way I was wrong to be so cavalier with the food I was eating. I have not had another serious reaction but on more than one occasion I have eaten something likely to be cc with dairy and I got congested and started coughing from it. For a while I thought I was going crazy or developing MORE intolerances/allergies. My dairy allergy responds to benedryl so if I take some of that I breathe better but it makes me sleepy and groggy for days. Anyway, you are not alone in having other food issues and having to be strict about it. Friends of mine are always asking me if I can have soemthing they noticed is marked gluten-free and I have to explain that most people with celiac can but I cannot because of other food alelrgies/intolerances. It's really a bummer sometimes. But then you discover soemthing you CAN have and get all excited about it. Most of the things I have started making homemade ARE better than the pro-processed stuff. If you can focus on that (and it looks like you already are) then you will be fine!

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.

      nothing has changed

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Seven months can still be early in celiac healing, especially if you were mostly asymptomatic to begin with—symptoms like low iron, vitamin D deficiency, nail changes, and hair issues often take much longer to improve because the gut needs time to recover before absorption normalizes. A tTG-IgA of 69 is not “low” in terms of immune activity, and it can take 12–24 months (sometimes longer) for antibodies and the intestinal lining to fully heal, particularly in teens and young adults. Eating gluten again to “test” things isn’t recommended and won’t give you clear answers—it’s far more likely to cause harm than clarity. Weight not changing is also very common in celiac and doesn’t rule anything out. Please know that your frustration and sadness matter; this adjustment is hard, and feeling stuck can really affect mental health. You deserve support, and if you can, reaching out to a GI dietitian or mental health professional familiar with chronic illness could really help you through this phase. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people.
