Nightshades Too?

I've been gluten free for about six weeks (for the most part but I've made some mistakes) and I'm still have lots of bathroom issues. Reviewing what I've eaten it seems that tomatoes and potatoes are causing me to have diarrhea within an hour of eating them. So I'll be giving up those for a while now, too.

I'm not sure I'm ever going to get this all figured out. But I can now spell diarrhea without the use of a spellchecker. Whoohoo.

Try peeling the nightshades before you give them up entirely. Most of the toxins are in the skin.

If you are reacting to a whole family of foods such as nightshades, I'd suggest reading up on cross reactive pollens (probably birch for nightshades) and look up what is high in your area. Being treated for the pollen (birch for ex) will help eliminate or lighten the problems with the foods.

Hon, you could have bathroom issues for a while yet. You're still early in the game here. You'll get it all figured out!! ;)

Do as Jess suggests, peel the nightshades and see it if helps.

Two thoughts if the " big D" (man, I get tired of typing out diarrhea :D ) continues: dump dairy for a while and take probiotics.

And kudos for keeping your sense of humor during this recovery phase :lol: . Not everyone can do that.

whoohoo!!!!

Potatoes, tomatoes, sweet and hot peppers, eggplant, tomatillos, tamarios, pepinos, pimentos, paprika, and cayenne peppers are classified as nightshade foods.

Thanks for the perspective. I think I was hoping for an Open & Shut, Black & White, Aha! answer but instead I've got an Ajar, Gray, Huh? answer.

:lol::lol:

Atta girl, keep that sense of humor. You're gonna need it. Saved me from swan-diving off a cliff during this mess (pre-DX and post).

Wish we could tell you definitively what will happen on this healing journey, but alas, we cannot.

No playbook, no set time pattern for recovery and certainly no "one size fits all" answers.

Every BODY is different.

Hang tough.

      Sugar intolerance 10 years into gluten-free diet

      @science enthusiast Christi, It could be Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Lots of people with Celiac develop it, especially if they eat a high carbohydrate diet. Colonic bacteria crawl into the small intestine and ferment the excess carbohydrates and prebiotic fibers which causes lots of gas. I changed my diet to the Autoimmune...

      Great Value Veggies cannot be trusted.

      Yes, a rule I usually follow. Pict Sweet was always known to be gluten-free and after many years of use with no problems, it's easy to forget to look.

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      "I am quite convinced this gluten is coming from exposure whilst eating out. Small levels, that don't make me violently sick, but might give me a mild stomach upset." cristiana, are you saying this is your actual experience or are you speculating here?

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I have tried many Vit D. Solgad is one that did not cause any problems. I take 5000IU. Most of their vitamins are gluten-free certified but this is not. They can be purchased direct from Solgar or Amazon.

I need to find another gi but its useless because its going to be same thing around here.i just feel lost and in tbe medical file they are writing what ever and its really not ok. In fact i dont want to go unless they record the conversation. Yes its that bad.im only having  care and concern for my ms whose Not part of the same health association that pcp and gi are with.I will have to look into changing to another. Mayo clinic is great but its the celiac, sibo, ect and all related issues that need addressed but current " careteam says call when needed. No plans of scheduled dates

      @science enthusiast Christi, It could be Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).  Lots of people with Celiac develop it, especially if they eat a high carbohydrate diet.   Colonic bacteria crawl into the small intestine and ferment the excess carbohydrates and prebiotic fibers which causes lots of gas.   I changed my diet to the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (AIP), a Paleo diet, and supplemented with a B Complex and Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine that helps heal the intestines and has antibacterial properties.  I had improvement within a few days.  The AIP diet starves out the carbohydrate loving SIBO bacteria and allows more beneficial bacteria a chance to repopulate. Hope this helps.
