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!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
