Can Eating Nuts Make Your Symptoms Worse?

Hello everybody,

I've posted here before about a negative blood test (Doc just tested immunoglobulin A and Ttg IGA) but I have several "celiac" symptoms. I go for an endo on Friday but have a quick question.

Has anyone noticed eating nuts aggravating your symptoms? My symptoms were mild this Thanksgiving Holiday but started to flare-up this morning. Then I had the bright idea of snacking some almonds this afternoon and my stomach totally disagreed! I am thinking they are too harsh on your system if you are not completely gluten healed???

Any thoughts? Thank you so much!

The pieces can be hard on diverticulitis, which I wouldn't exactly call common for celiacs, but it's certainly not unheard of.

Some of us have additional intolerances. I for example, cannot tolerate almonds, although cashews and walnuts don't bother me. So it MIGHT be an intolerance, or it might just be that they are too rough on your healing system. I know some folks can't eat raw veggies at first, but cooked veggies don't bother them. Maybe you can give yourself more time to heal and then try them again?

Many foods can be irritating to the healing gut - or as Bartfull said - you could be intolerant of some items until you have healed. I can eat almonds, but not cashews, pistachios, walnuts and a few others.

Perhaps wait a while and try almond butter or almond flour to see if almonds are an issue or just harsh on your system right now.

Thank you so much!!!! I will avoid them until my gut feels better! :D

All said above. I can handle almonds, but not hazelnuts. Or walnuts, for that matter. Remember even some natural foods aren't good for a still sensitive gut... I learned it in the hard way.

      KAN‑101 is still very much in development and being actively studied. It has not been dropped—rather, it is advancing through Phases 1 and 2, moving toward what could become the first disease‑modifying treatment for celiac disease. https://anokion.com/press_releases/anokion-announces-positive-symptom-data-from-its-phase-2-trial-evaluating-kan-101-for-the-treatment-of-celiac-disease/

      Thiamine interacts with all the other B vitamins.  Thiamine and B 6 make a very important enzyme together. With more thiamine and other vitamins available from the supplements your body is absorbing the ones you need more of.  The body can control which vitamins to absorb or not.  You're absorbing more and it's being transported through the blood.   It's common to have both a Thiamine and a Pyridoxine deficiency.  Keep taking the B Complex. This is why it's best to stop taking supplements for six to eight weeks before testing vitamin levels.

      Yes I took a supplement that had B6 in it, low dosage though. I've stopped taking that. B1 doesn't affect other B vitamin levels?

      Have you tried lip balm made from tallow?  It's been used for thousands of years and works better than those with waxes. I prefer Vintage Traditions brand tallow balm products.

      Are you taking a B 6 supplement or a supplement containing B 6 like a B Complex?  Do you have pins and needles in your toes?   Don't worry about the thiamine being high.  The blood is a transport system that carries thiamine to the cells so they can store it.  It's fine.
