Paleo Confusion


Serielda

Recommended Posts

So I've hit a place I call the valley of confusion, and I have seen conflicting info. One a few sites it states even gluten free grains are forbidden, yet on other sites it states quinoa is safe. What really has me puzzled is one that listed a buffalo chicken melt muffin. I am no culinary whiz, but how is a muffin possible without grains? The entire recipe checked out gluten-free, but huh on the recipe portion. If anyone has insight on this please share.

Paleo, is one of my Dr.s recommendations,but not my first choice I'd rather stayed vegan. However after close examination and seeing gallbladder and gallstone activity is associated greatly with veganisi , I am going to explore the recommendation, seeing last Sunday's surgery experience was on the chart of holy crap, I don't like this and I feel like hot sludge fresh off of a French quarter sidewalk the day after Mardi Gras.

Thanks,

Seri

For now, just stick to eggs, meat and fish, fruit and veggies and fats/oils like butter and olives until you are healed from surgery. That is my diet. Later, you can expand your diet.

Muffins? They are probably made with nut flour, like almonds.

Eat "dinner" for breakfast!

Funny you say that as that is normal here as I work 3rd shift where I do. As for recommendations on it, actually been on it as Dr.s orders.

A newly diagnosed celiac is often cautioned against grains, including corn, quinoa, rice etc., as they can be difficult to digest.  Your gut is still raw and sore, in need of healing.  Stick to easy to digest foods and avoid those that irritate.  If you are interested in Paleo and excellent book to get is Practical Paleo by Diane Sanfilippo.  Easy to read and understand, easy recipes.  Paleo is whole foods, veggies, meats, fruits.  As you heal you can add simple grains if you choose.  (rice, quinoa_

I will check out that author you are referencing.  Trust me Paleo is not my first choice as for the past 3+ years I have been a vegan, and vegetarian longer than that. However Thankfully I did find a healthcare system is fairly astute to Celiacs and NCGI issues put me on that thing. So from what research I have done on  my end to make sure they are not full of it, I checked into it myself and it has seemed to help alot of us who suffer from Celiac Disease.

There is a lot of meat for protein on the Paleo diet.  No beans as those are hard to digest.  If you choose to try it you could probably skip the beans, grains and dairy (which are harder to digest anyway) and load up on the veggies.  Maybe some fish ?  What I love about the Paleo way is the many ways of fixing veggies.  The book I suggested has wonderful stuff like pumpkin pancakes, cauliflower pizza, zucc pancakes.  Enough veggie dishes to get you started.  Being a non-cook I found the items pretty easy to prepare.

I cheat with rice, but only white rice.  I seem to tolerate it well.  I can't tolerate quinoa or beans etc.  I can't much tolerate nuts or coconut either, but I seem fine with coconut cream.  Odd.

You can use a few flours with Paleo, like arrowroot I think, and maybe buckwheat and mixtures of nut flours.  We also use coconut flour.  It works out quite well.  Oh and we often use rice flour because we tolerate it.

A lot of the paleo muffin recipes are meat muffins,. You can call anything a muffin if you make it in a muffin pan! ;-)

It starts with food was the book that started me on the paleo journey with a 30 day strict paleo diet. The Whole30 website is informative and also has alot of .pdfs that you can download and print that have food templates and good vs bad foods. (Open Original Shared Link) I still have the print outs on my fridge as a reminder 6 months post whole30. Pinterest is awesome for meal planning and recipes. I use it weekly to plan for what I need at the store.

      I did a gluten challenge. I ate bread yesterday. I immediately felt horrid. Depressed, fearful, angry.  I also had the weirdest night terrors and "day terrors" (delusions). They were do awful, that I am still terrified. How do gluten impact your dreams?

      Thanks so much for replying!  No I haven't been limiting gluten prior to this test, I didn't know the Dr even tested for it until I got my results. These were the only celiac related pathology that was tested for. I am seeing my Dr on Monday so hopefully she can shed some more light!

I have issues when I do cocktails 🍸 I don’t know if it is gluten free or not but get horrible side effects and so many others ooh well we are all learning how to cope with this….

      Thanks a lot! I will search that too. I also talked to another doctor and she assured me there is no gluten in this type of antibiotics. Anyway i started the administration of Augmentin on my girl this evening. I hope there will be no problems.

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.
