Depends on the buckwheat. How was it processed?

I eat Pocono's buckwheat without issues.

 

P.S. just curious, but is a  blood type diet the one where you should supposedly only

eat foods that match your blood type?

Yes the blood type diet has lists of foods that are beneficial and foods to avoid for your blood type. My doctor recommended it and I figured it was worth a try. I've been totally gluten free for 4 years and eat a clean diet, live in a gluten-free household, yet still have lingering health problems. My vitamin absorption still isn't great. I can't get my D and iron into good levels at all. The doc who created the blood type diet has an even more extensive program called the Genotype diet and now I'm doing that. I have noticed a huge difference in a short time from doing it.

It may not be for everyone. I'm not here to defend it or recommend it. I mentioned it because I had made some dietary changes which could have been a factor. If you read reviews of the diet, the results people have had are phenomenal. There are some other celiacs I've met on forums for it who weren't getting completely well and did amazing after doing the blood type or genotype diets. The negative reviews are usually from people who disagree theoretically with the scientific premise, not from people who actually tried it, interestingly enough. A friend of mine I met on this board recommended it to me about a year ago but I wasn't ready to make anymore dietary changes at that time. 

I think buckwheat and I will part ways for now. Maybe we will try to be friends again the future. LOL

I'm just going to avoid buckwheat. It doesn't taste all that great anyways and it's not worth it. I had brain fog really bad. It's one of the worst reactions I've had in years. I don't get glutened often. I even had the achy flu symptoms and everything. It was bad. 

Did you move my post? I couldn't find it in coping with so I reposted because I had a glitch when I originally posted the topic. Then I found it here. 

Yesterday and today I've  had horrible brain fog, like back in the old days when I was going through gluten withdrawal when I was first diagnosed. I have that achy flu like feeling when glutened and I am starving!! 

I started the eating for your blood type plan at the recommendation from my doctor, but it's really just changing  a few of my normal foods. It's not a drastic difference in what I'm eating.

I have always avoided buckwheat but I thought I would give a new buckwheat cereal a try that I saw at Sprouts. I ate it two days in a row. I'm wondering if buckwheat could be the culprit.

I've been freaking out a bit trying to find out what happened because I haven't eaten anything where I would be glutened and I have no G.I. symptoms like I would normally get. It's like a very weird glutening.

I know within about 20 minutes.

FYI Lipton onion soup is gluten free as far as I know. Do a search for it on here. It used to have gluten if I remember correctly.

My reaction is a weird one. I used to love Coke, Pepsi and Barq's root beer. Now they all taste like soap and chemicals to me since I went gluten free. The first time I tried soda again after diagnosis I got it from a machine at a fast food place. I thought they had run chemical cleaner through the lines and not rinsed them.

But I tried it at a couple more places and then from a bottle at home and it all tasted like soap and chemicals. Then I tasted my son's Sprite and same thing.

I can drink the all natural Hansen's sodas and they taste normal to me. I only have one once in awhile but it's the only one I even attempt to drink now.

fluoride taken internally is not safe- i still use filtered tap for brushing my teeth

I'm with you on that one. I've done a lot of reading about how bad it is that our water is flouridated now. I just filter my tap water. I don't have the energy to distill it.

"This is the thread that never ends... it goes on and on my friend." Sing with me! A five year old thread from 2005 still going is pretty good!

I have coughed for years. The pulmonary doc said I have "cough asthma" The cough is way better after just a short time gluten free.
