Canola Allergy ?


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

Does anyone else have a gluten type reaction to canola oil? The last few times that I have had canola oil, I end up with severe D and bloating just like with gluten.

I woke up with stomach pain and sores on my lips. Sounds like an allergic reaction. Anyone else?

:blink:

I use it without any problem so obviously I'm not sensitive to it but it sounds like you need to avoid it.

gluten-free MO, you and I can be buddies.

I have recently relized that I react to the oil form of some things. :( I was told that is less common because the oils don't have the proteins but it is possible and I do now. I recently figured out that I react to sunflower. I was reacting to a dressing with the oil in it and Earthbalance which has the lecitin and Truvia which has stevia, which I found out is part of the sunflower family.

I also react to soy oil, mildly but do. I get peeling lips from chapstick that has it and funny scaley patches on my skin if I consume the oil in dressing etc.

I also get immediate D with some of my allergens. That's how I knew I had become allergic to califlower. It seemed to bother me, so I avoided it then tried it again and bam!

Thanks Missy'smom. I am going to have to stick with just olive oil because it's the only one that I do ok with. You and I share a lot of the same intolerances.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      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.

      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.

      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.
