Am I A Mess?

Hi everyone. I've been gluten free for a little over a week and being super careful. In the past, I've used soy milk from time to time as I can't have dairy. I usually opt for almond milk. Anyway, yesterday afternoon I went to an Asian restraurant with a friend and had a veggie steam bowl with rice and some gluten free sauce on the side. The inside of my mouth got sort of raw after - not sure if it was the spice or the soy and I still feel it today. I had a soy latte later - no syrup or anything - and ended up with really bad wind that has stayed yet today. Is it possible that I'm sensitive to soy? Or could it just be part of the healing? I plan on staying away from it for a bit but I wanted to see what you thought.

Everyone has been so helpful since I joined. Thank you so much :)

I dunno but I've read nothing but bad stuff about soy, I would stay away from it, but I guess it's hard if you want to eat out at chinese, thai and the like. Basically I read there's estrogen and other bad stuff in soy, and that the soy protein is really sticky in your gut.

A lot of celiacs also have problems with soy. I am one of those. Bloating, gas. I quit soy & it went away.

Yes, soy is a problem also for many celiacs, me included. If you are looking for a soy sauce substitute, Whole Foods carries a product called Cocnut Secrets/Cocnut Aminos, which is very similar in flavor.

Thanks Mushroom - I will check that out. I have always tried to limit soy, even before all this happened but have some in "treats" since most places don't use almond milk. I might be noticing symptoms more now that I am feeling a bit better. I think I'll have to watch it more carefully now.

That happened to me! I had never gone out of my way to eat soy, but didn't check for it in things like salad dressings, etc. After gluten free when my body no longer had to fight that fight it turned its attention to soy with a vengeance, and I developed this huge bright red rash which tooke me quite a while to figure out. Turns out that a lot of gluten free foods have soy subbed in them - it does limit your choice of baked goods/flours if you avoid soy :unsure:

I had never removed Soy until my full elimination diet and boy what a reaction I got when I trialed a cup of soybeans! Here is my note from my food log 9/23/11:

"Major bloat - 8 months prego within 20 minutes of eating one cup soybeans - next day none had digested."

Hope that wasn't TMI -- hope no one is eating while reading this post ;)

      Study Estimates the Costs of Delayed Celiac Disease Diagnosis (+Video)

      I was not a well child and on my own would stop eating certain foods when a stomachache occurred. As I got older, I began more and more anemic and ended up unable to hold food down at all. Once an endoscopy occurred, doctor said I had an obstruction in my stomach but nothing said about Celiac Disease. Dr. did stomach bypass surgery, removed a 1/3 of my...

      Top Brands of Gluten-Free Canned Chili

      While it seems unlikely to contain intentional gluten ingredients--and based on the ingredients you provided, this canned Wendy's chili appears to be gluten-free, but with a very important caveat: it cannot be considered certified or guaranteed gluten-free due to the potential for cross-contamination and the ambiguous nature of "natural flavors."

      Top Brands of Gluten-Free Canned Chili

      I have same question as trents above. After I mentioned how much I liked Wendy's chili, a neighbor gave me a can b/c I didn't know could buy it in a can. Is gluten free in Wendy's restaurant, but can doesn't say gluten free so afraid to eat it. (Can says provides 50% Daily Value of protein, another plus.) Below are ingredients on can. Would the experts...

      Study Estimates the Costs of Delayed Celiac Disease Diagnosis (+Video)

      Some of my symptoms started in childhood, with many visits to the school nurse (mostly after lunch) with stomach aches. Low weight, thin hair and fatigue persisted through my adult life. In my 40's I began to lose a lot of weight, terrible episodes of digestive upset, etc. Two years and many tests and bills later, gallbladder, lactose, etc with no definitive...

      Rectal pain

      By cristiana · Posted

      When I have had what I think are episodes of this (I've never had a formal diagnosis for PF) it seems to be triggered by bloating caused by something I've eaten - a friend had an episode of this after eating too many apples, for me corn and rice cakes seemed to give me IBS and trigger this.  I am not a medical person but it seemed like the extra pressure down there perhaps added pressure to already sensitised pelvic and rectal muscles. Coeliacs can suffer from bloating when they are first diagnosed due to the inability to digest food properly.  Lactose for me caused a lot of bloating and when I came off it temporarily after diagnosis it helped reduce bloating.  Iron supplements and the timing of taking them also caused discomfort and I had to experiment a bit with type and timing before my gut felt comfortable.   Maybe something to think about?   Some coeliacs suffer from constipation - again, just a thought, but perhaps if you had issues with that it might be a contributor.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      At a family wedding in Italy last year I was drinking gluten free Peroni which was fine for me. From the Daura Damn website ... " Our guarantee less than 3ppm: each batch is analyzed and certified by the CSIC using the R5 Competitive ELISA test before hitting the market. This way, we ensure that its gluten content is always below 3ppm "

      Hi jmartes, I brought up doTerra's website and see that they do have many supplements, offer  support and help. And using their organic products has been helpful. and yet you are not able to work enough to support yourself when, if you were healtht, you could work for another 20 years. It does not seem that they offer a program to follow and instead are offering supplements for your symptoms. This has helped you but you are not able to work very much.  The Programs I have seen  online usually have 3 parts. The first is a Parasite cleanse. The 2nd is the Kidney cleanse and the  3rd is a Liver cleanse and gallbladder cleanse. You need to doall these cleanses to have your whole body functioning well. I can only reccommend the program I gave you because that is the one I used and still do. (drclark.net)  When I see a newprovider and tell I have Celiacs and they look skeptical I tell them that when I am gluttoned the reaction happens 8 or more hours later with intestinal painful cramping followed by diarrhea. Providers are willing to accept tha I probably have Celiacs and are more likely order tests such as vitamin levels. Is this what happens if you eat only a small amount of Gluten? You mentioned going to Mayors. 20 years ago many Dr.s wanted to include a celiac screening as a standard test so that more people eould diagnosed and not become disabled. It did not happen but the Federal levgislature did pass a law so that Celiacs could claim deductions for the gluten free food they bought. What were you going to ask the Mayors to do?

      Gluten free nuts

      By Clear2me · Posted

      Thank you for all the excellent information. I moved from Wyoming to California. May be its where I am located but So far none of the Costco Kirkland brand I have looked at is labeled gluten free. Same with the Sam's Members Mark. The Kirkland nuts you mention all say they are processed in a plant that processes wheat.  I am going to keep checking. Thank you. The Azure Market looks promising 😁 Take care S
