Mom Cooks Gluten Food And Gluten-Free Food In Same Oven

My mom doesn't like the taste of gluten-free flour so she will make two recipes (breads, etc)- one with gluten flour in it for her and one with gluten-free flour in it for me. I told her that I don't think gluten and gluten-free recipes should be cooked in the oven at the same time. She doesn't want to go through hassle of cooking them separately, though. can cooking 2 separate pans like this in the same oven poison me. Since I get neurological more than diarrhea symptoms, it isn't as easy to tell if I was glutened. I am used to feeling bad every day whether or not I had gluten. I don't know it's related to another condition or my body hasn't fully healed with the gluten-free diet. It hasn't been a year on the diet, yet.

Welcome to the forum!

 

There are a few things to take into account when cooking gluten-free and non gluten-free things in the oven at the same time, but in general it can be safe.  If the gluten-filled item is something that is going to splatter or put off particles, it is best that it be on a lower rack and possibly covered with foil.  If the item has loose flour all over it and a convection oven is used (where a fan blows the heat around) it may not be a good idea to have it in there with a gluten-free item.  But two things that will stay in their pans and can fit on the same rack very well without touching should be okay.  Make sure to use dedicated gluten-free pans and potholders so you aren't introducing cross-contamination.  If you are able to put the gluten filled item on a lower rack, that can prevent splatter like with bubbly pizzas.  

 

It is also important to take into account some good practices when you have a shared kitchen with gluten items.  If someone is baking with flour from scratch, the poofy nature of it can settle on other things that are not right next to it, so if you would like more info on keeping a shared kitchen safe, check out our newbie 101 thread:  https://www.celiac.com/forums/topic/91878-newbie-info-101/

I'm sure you can avoid cc, but why take the chance? My son is the one who is gluten free in our household. I have other food allergies. I always cook one meal for all of us so that means we all eat rice flour and other gluten free foods. It's easier to not have any gluten in the house. Udi's gluten free bread is made from rice flour. I buy gluten free bread and put a damp paper towel in the baggie with the sandwich my son takes to school. Keeps it nice and moist.

Ditto everything that LauraTx said. :). As long as you take precautions, your food should be safe

      Blood tests for vitamin deficiencies are not an accurate measurement of vitamin stores within cells where the vitamins are actually utilized.  The brain will order cells in tissues and organs to put their stored vitamins into the blood stream to supply the brain and heart.  Deficiency symptoms can appear before there's a change in blood levels.   The eight B vitamins are water soluble.  That means they can get flushed out of your system easily with that Russian Roulette Running.  Some vitamin deficiencies have gastrointestinal symptoms that mimic Celiac Disease.  Thiamine deficiency has gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea.  Vitamin C is also water soluble with gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea when deficient.  Symptoms of a deficiency in Niacin B3 include diarrhea, and a blistering reaction to sunlight.  Have a nice vacation and keep us posted on your progress when you get back! P.S. There's not a difference between being glutened and being cross contaminated.  You'll get your usual symptoms.  The digestive tract has a limited vocabulary.

      Yes that's why I'm holding off on getting tested until after the summer so no Russian roulette bathroom escapades then I will reintroduce and get tested. The vitamins aren't a supplement they are frozen fruits and vegetables that you blend with water so it's natural fruit and veggies that I have used for 5 years daily. I don't take supplements I did full vitamin bloodwork and all great levels for what I need.

      There's a Vegetarian version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. There are vegetables that can provide Calcium...broccoli, kale, lentils, tofu.  Talking to a nutritionist can help identify vegetables that can provide you with the minerals and vitamins you need.  Getting dietary advice is part of proper follow up care for people with Celiac disease. tTg testing is used for diagnostic purposes.  It should not be used to signify compliance or healing.

      Ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks or longer is needed to get antibody levels up high enough so that they can be measured in the blood stream and intestinal damage can be seen in the small intestines.   HOWEVER,  only THREE grams if gluten is needed to produce symptoms...like running to the bathroom.   Some people have much worse symptoms after reintroducing gluten, even with amounts of gluten much less than three grams.  So...getting glutened or cross contamination is a real concern.   You'll be playing Russian Roulette on your vacation.   If you got vitamin levels tested while taking a nutritional shake with vitamins, you've simply measured the vitamins from the shake.  You need to be off vitamin supplementation for eight weeks prior to vitamin testing.  Were more than Vitamin D and B12 tested???  "Normal" levels of these two vitamins don't mean that you're not deficient in the other eleven essential vitamins.  Vitamin D and B12 can be stored in the body a lot longer than the other vitamins, especially the other B vitamins like thiamine. Enjoy your vacation!

      Mostly because of the inconsistency/irregularity of your symptoms with regard to gluten consumption and other dietary factors. Their doesn't seem to be a real pattern. Histamines are produced by our bodies themselves but they are also found in the foods we eat and the air we breathe (pollen). Certain foods, for example, fermented and aged products, are very high in histamines. Other foods, like bananas and avocados, may be high in histamines but they also may stimulate the body's production of histamines. The body (in the gut) produces a histamine regulating chemical called DAO (Diamine Oxidase). Some people, and this is more common in the celiac community because of damage to the gut lining, don't produce enough DAO to adequately regulate histamine levels in the body. This results in histamine "storms" that produce a variety of symptoms such as headaches, acid reflux and diarrhea. So, I'm just wondering if your symptoms are tied to fluctuating histamine levels that get pushed passed the tipping point at times by various things you may be eating. Anyway, you might want to research it. I also wonder if you have IBS.
