How Do You Do The Rotation Diet When You Are Limited In Food?

I am having a liver issue here..bilirubin and last night urobilinogen after a possible gluten or salicylic acid episode starting on the 29th of december. I have no appetite but i'm forcing myself to eat. I have been on a very limited diet..i dunno for sure if my problem is salicylic acid with what happened and i feel i need to go on the rotation diet to heal myself properly as well as find a probiotic. What the heck do i do? I'm finding it hard to find foods to even fill up my day unless i eat a lot of the same thing...let alone a rotation diet O_O thoughts?

Are you sure about your intolerances? I am low level intolerant by Elisa test to 49/60 things I am eating. I still can eat each of them and am doing really well on a rotational diet. Make sure nothing you are getting is cross contaminated with gluten. It is so confusing at first to know what exactly is going on. From my test I also learned 11 foods that I was eating that I was making no antibodies for. These I do break rotation somewhat with. You can't have a rounded diet without protein, fat, and veges. I can maybe show you my rotation diet, but you can't have one like it with only 6 items.

Protein foods : Fish, beef, chicken, pork, lamb, bison, poached eggs, yougurt, or cheese

Veges: (brocolli, cauliflower, , collard greens, kale, and brussel sprouts), ,(legumes, string beans, lentils, kidney beans, garbanzo beans, carob, peas, white beans) (sweet potato, carrots, squash, zucchini, celery, fennel bulb ) (beets, swiss chard, spinach)

My "flours" Buckwheat ground by me (I haven't found storebought not cc) walnut, hazlenut, pecan, macedemia, Nut flour, (ground in blender and put through a sifter, ) Almond flour, coconut flour.

fruits apple, banana, mango, papaya, kiwi, cranberry, blackberry, pears, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry, oranges, peaches, grapefruit, grapes, apricot, plums, figs, dates, cherry (sweet and tart), watermelon, cantelope, avacado, tomato, rhubarb, pineapple there may be others to try at the store. Try a new one, you are not likely to have antibodies to it. Check its family though.

Oils (ghee) (coconut oil) (Olive oil)

For each meal I have 1 protein, l or more veggies, 1 flour and one oil. Sometimes I have a small amount of fruit. If I make a little pancake I spread a couple of bites of fruit on it for flavor. YUM

You may not tolerate some of them, but if you only eat it every forth day, perhaps you can get by with it like I do. Your body sure needs to rest. When I started my diet, I felt better in four days. I have not relapsed yet, even when I got diarrhea from something I ate. I mean my foggy fatigue stayed away, and I could live with the other for a short time.

I hope this will help you, or someone. I do hope that if you really feel you are so limited in your diet that you will find help, or try one of the really limited diets others are on like paleo. I don't know what else. Either that or I hope you find a health practioner that can help you identify more foods you can eat, or how to get out of your food crises. I felt I needed that until recently. AFter I did the rotational diet, supplements, and pancreatic enymes I feel better. I am coming down with a cold now, and I hope I will lick it much faster than my cold that was before the changes I recently made.

Problem is salicylic acid limits the diet...GREATLY. More so than gluten. Can't eat half of those lists. Not having dairy. Coconut and Olive oil are high, A lot of the veggies are high all fruits except perhaps pears are ok...this is really becoming a burden. I'm pretty sure it's more than likely salicylic acid because my stomach upset started from sniffing peppermint and ginger young living essential oils on my husbands aunt's suggestion and turns out they are high in sals. I've done a urine test and my bilirubin went way up again...so frustrated :(

I answered this in reply to your PM, but I will post here as well.

You can try the Failsafe Diet.

Open Original Shared Link

of course, it goes without saying, but you have to eliminate the gluten grains, too on that list!

Works very well for taking out any potential foods or additives that may be bothering you.

I know you are very anxious to get well, as I once was too

but you really, really have to try and calm down about what

you think are "potential" issues making you sick. You simply cannot get glutened or sick from food aromas if someone is cooking

in your house (as you asked on another thread)

but you could well have felt sick after sniffing oils IF you have a chemical sensitivity.

An environmental allergist can diagnose this problem.

Just try it for a month. Take walks. Get some fresh air.

Hope this helps.

      @cristiana,  I react the same way.  Dairy consumption flushes out my digestive system within an hour, too! As casein is digested, it forms casomorphins that bind to opioid receptors in our bodies.  This is similar to digested gluten peptides being able to attach to opioid receptors in our bodies.   We have opioid receptors throughout our bodies including lots in the digestive tract. Casein raises tTg IgA antibodies just like gluten consumption does, which leads to further intestinal damage and continuing inflammation.  No wonder our bodies react to it by pushing the "emergency evacuation" ejection seat button! The mother of my childhood friend was British and introduced me to drinking tea properly with milk or cream.  I miss it so much.  And chocolate ice cream.  Not worth the after effects, though.  I've found taking Omega Three supplements (flaxseed oil, sunflower seed oil, evening primrose oil) helps shake those dairy cravings.   Green leafy veggies like broccoli, kale, and greens (mustard, turnip, collards) are great sources of calcium.  Avoid spinach as it is high in oxalates that block calcium absorption and may cause kidney stones.  Yes, more leafy greens are needed to reach the same amount of calcium in a glass of milk, but the greens have other benefits, like increased dietary fiber and polyphenols that act as antioxidants, reduce inflammation, and promote health.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards.  The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.   Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.  Another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.

      Hi, I bought Naked Nutrition Creatine. It lists itself as gluten free but is not certified. (It used to be, but they dropped it in the past year or two apparently.) I wrote the company and asked them what testing results they had for creatine and they sent me the attached, which says the test result for gluten is <0.025MCG. I'm used to seeing test results as ppm, so I'm not sure what <0.025MCG means. Can it be converted to ppm easily? I want to confirm that it is safe to use.

      When I was still recovering my gastroenterologist suggested I bought lactofree product as I was very bloated.  So I bought some from the supermarket and from memory, I drank a nice big glass of milk - and it went right through me literally within an hour or so, if my memory serves correctly.  I came off dairy completely next and it worked like a charm, but started to reintroduce quite gradually it as I missed it! To this day, if I overdo dairy products, they work like a mild laxative.  I've never wanted to give up milk completely as I like it so much, and my mum had osteoporosis and it's an easy way of getting calcium.  But it doesn't really 'sit' well with me.   You may need to experiment a bit as when I was healing certain dairy products were worse than others - I could cope with one brand of Greek yoghurt, but I got extremely and painfully bloated with another brand of live British yoghurt.

      i have been strictly gluten free for 7 months. this includes avoiding anything that may contain gluten and making sure surfaces and appliances are clean. i am 18 years old in australia and my tTG-IgA results were 69U/mL, pretty low compared to most people's, for reference. i feel the exact same as before. sure, i was pretty much asymptomatic/silent. the worst i'd get was occasionally bad stools and pitting of the nails/brittle hair since early childhood - and i was diagnosed with low iron and vitamin d which checks out due to easy bruising and such. but those symptoms have remained. maybe i'm jumping the gun, sure. i know it can take years to fully heal. but being over half a year in, i feel that i should be, y'know, healing. i'm nearly at my wits end and wondering if i should have a piece of bread or something to see how i go - to see if i possibly have refractory? my mental health is declining as i feel myself wanting to bang my head against a damn wall out of frustration every day. cravings haven't gotten better. look, i love the stuff i still can have, like salads and such. OH! i haven't lost any weight, which is mind boggling considering i eat very healthily now! i've always been on the chubbier side which is atypical of coeliac. i just don't know what's going on with me. i try to remain hopeful but i'm just so sad all the time. thanks for reading

      @Charlie1946There is a PM (Personal Message) tool built into the forum website that allows you to send a private message to other forum users. Just hover over their name with your mouse cursor and the menu containing that tool will pop up. This is useful if you want to communicate with an individual without everyone else involved in the thread seeing it.  Are you realizing that in my PPI taper down recommendations in an earlier post above, I was responding not to your posts but to @Caligirl57? If you must use a PPI, I certainly would advise taking the lowest dose that is effective for you.
