  1. Rice can have a similar effect to gluten on your brain, with the gluten like starch. Sweet potato is a complex food like potatoes so although I don't strictly rule it out, some people would still have a problem with it... nothing to do with the AIP food list.
  2. Hi, I have brain fog today for the first time in 3 weeks. I had cut out all grains and stopped eating rice by chance and had it after 3 weeks and it made me ill. That was last month. This time it was a dairy milk ice cream. I also ate mayonnaise yesterday before I realised it has corn in it. On a grain free diet with no processed food, so only fruit...
  3. Yes, good point, thank you, Kareng. I lifted that quote, should've been more careful. The only yeast I am able to eat is Dove's Farm Yeast.
  4. To prevent and/or treat pellagra, prescribe a protein-rich diet with adequate calories. The addition of meats, milk, peanuts, leafy green vegetables, whole or enriched grains, and brewer's dry yeast can enhance niacin intake.
  5. That is the point, Gemini. You do not do well without grains, but some people are reacting to lots of foods, without knowing what to. Some people need to cut out food groups in order to heal and then bring them back one at a time. Without elimination we don't know what we are reacting to. Some people are suffering and confused because something is causing...
  6. So do I. I even get glutened with brain fog, intestinal issues, fatigue, numbness and muscle spasms from aerosols or bakery or sometimes plaster dust and the gluten found in building materials.
  7. I am sensitive to trace gluten, but when I was out with wider family and desperately hungry with no food or drink and found a can of coke, uncharacteristically I downed it with no ill effects. I drink probably one can every two years, not a regular occurrence. If it was going to give me problems I would have known about it. In USA corn is a more commonly...
  8. Hi, Your gut will take time to heal and some foods are more difficult to digest than others, so during the healing process foods that encourage bad bacteria should be avoided. This book was written by someone who had been given an ultimatum by doctors, who said removal of the colon was the only option for her daughter. She fought that and researched...
  9. Hi Jm34, After ten years of gluten free diets on and off and suffering all sorts of problems, I've discovered a sensitivity to maize. I also had heart problems after lasagne, bolognese and pizza (all gluten free), but when I ate pizza made with baked beans instead of tomatoes and with less cheese, I didn't have the symptoms. I have since cut out maize...
  10. Gemini, you misunderstand me in your defence. I said, making things worse is to say something unhelpful. I wasn't referring to you, only that I was offering support. Newly diagnosed people need support.
  11. Hi Gemini, Cross-reactivity is not relevant in the context of oats, but it certainly isn't a myth. If OP is suffering after eating oats, perhaps they are one of the few who DO react to oats. Let's not fall out here or have side-discussions. I care a great deal about helping people who are suffering, especially psychologically when affected. Making things...
  12. Lentils and Beans don't contain gluten. Some people are sensitive to grains and need to avoid rice and corn, but that's nothing to do with this and I wouldn't give yourself more to worry about unnecessarily.
  13. Hiya, I know it's not and I didn't say any more about cross-reactivity, but I thought maybe they were confused and didn't realise Coeliacs can react to Oats.
  14. There are solutions. Get some doves farm flour and make banana loaves, bread, eat eggs, fish (do you eat fish?), lentils (speckled ones boiled with brown rice are delicious with fried onion on top and greens on the side), eat pumpkin or squash, chips with beans and cheese, baked potatoes with something and plenty of broccoli or spinach. I dropped to below...
  15. Cross-reactivity is not a myth. My daughter carried on being sick until we also stopped giving her oats. The reaction may not be as severe, but we can't touch any gluten free wheat or oats, because they can label things gluten free that are up to 20 parts per million gluten containing. That's not gluten free. Despite what people may experience, we all...
  16. Hey egs1707, I've been thinking about setting up holidays for people with Coeliac disease and Gluten Allergy. I have not been diagnosed with coeliac disease, but was diagnosed with an airborne allergy to gluten after I lost my speech and muscle strength (full body paralysis) after 20 mins in a bakery. I had already given up gluten, began making the...
