Tomatoes?

Right now plain tomato juice is about the only carb source I seem to do okay with. I hear a lot about nightshades being bad for you while healing leaky gut/celiac damage. How do you know if tomatoes and other nightshades are causing a problem? I haven't really noticed any issues with tomato juice, and I don't do well with other fruits. I need to have some carbs in my diet so I at least have a little energy.

If you haven't noticed issues then why would you worry about it? Everybody is different in th way they heal and almost nothing applies to everybody -- except not eating gluten. I wouldn't try to make a problem where there doesn't seem to be one.

I've never had any problems with nightshades. If you don't have symptoms from it don't worry about it. Not all celiacs have leaky gut problems.

I do have leaky gut. I just wasn't sure if tomatoes could be doing any harm even if they aren't producing symptoms. Some people make it sound as though you absolutely have to avoid nightshades.

We all vary so much in issues that there is NO common denominator. Listen to your body...that's the best indicator. :)

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
