Does anyone have Sald just about double them over with stomach pain. For some reason I can't eat sald at all right now... Just wondering if being celiac it would cause issues with green leafy vegables. ;)

It can be hard for some of us to digest raw veggies at first. I found Romain lettuce harder on my system than iceberg lettuce.

It could also be the vinegar or soy oil in the dressing that's not agreeing with you?

Maybe give it a bit more time and then try it again?

Raw veggies are hard to digest, especially when you are first healing. Iceberg lettuce can be really bad & gas causing. When I first went gluten-free, I had a hard time with salads. For me, spinach was really hard. I was good with it cooked. I was just Ok with a little baby spinach like on a sandwich. I was fine with carrots, cucumbers, red peppers, etc raw by themselves. I can eat them now, so give it a few months and try again.

I was in denial that I have celiac but now I starting to think my doctor might be right. I'm going to stay about from the salad until I get a biopsy and go glutin free for six months or so....

I rather be diabetic than celiac because I think this is going to be so hard.....I don't know how I'm going to travel...ahhhhhh.

For the time being why not try roasting vegetables? They are awesome. And you can make wonderful kale chips in the oven.

Many of us travel, even to foreign countries. Before my first trip gluten free I was nervous but it turned out I worried for nothing. I just took along a lot of snacks to keep me satisfied, especially at airports and on flights because sometimes gluten-free meals can frankly be gross. Research the country or area before you go. If you go to a country where the primary language is not English take along restaurant cards for eating out. I have used them many times with great success. Hang out at the fresh markets and grocery stores. It can be done - honest! Don't worry. :)

If you want more travel tips just read the many threads on this site.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
