Mixed Kitchen (Oxymoron, I Know!)


MsMarginalized

Recommended Posts

I know, in a *perfect* world, I would be able to have a gluten-free kitchen for my 19 y/old son (& me). But I'm married & our daughter and her s/o also live with us...so we have the oxymoron of a mixed kitchen.

 

My Celiac isn't so bad.  My son....he gets sick looking at their loaf of bread (or at least it SEEMS that way!)

 

I've separated everything I can think of. Their toaster & ours. Their pots/pans & ours. Their dishes & ours. Their cooking utensils & ours. Their eating utensils (for glutened food, it's plastic ware that gets thrown out) and ours.

 

I've wondered for a long time (& asked wherever/whenever I can) does it matter if something glutened gets into the dishwasher with the gluten-free stuff? What if the dishwasher does a load of glutened stuff & then gluten-free stuff?

 

Handwashing we do in separate basins at separate times & THAT is when all glutened stuff gets washed right now.

 

So, the dishwasher....does it matter?

I have a "mixed" household.  We do all the dishes together in the dishwasher.  I wouldn't want a pan with a whole bottom of a gluteny burned pizza crust going through  but ....I wouldn't really want a burned stuck-on gluten-free one going in either.   :o

 

 

We use the same plates, glasses & silverware.  Use the same glass or ceramic pans/bowls.  Mostly at my house, the gluten is bread, crackers, cereal & frozen pizza when a kid is home.  We all eat gluten-free noodles.  They have their own baking sheet for the pizza that we hand wash, but I have always done that.  They have thier own toaster. PB, etc

Same here.  Take the appropriate precautions but you don't have to segregate plates, flatware, glasses...etc.

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.

      I also want to mention that using prednisone would likely also make the endoscopy results invalid. This steroid will cause gut healing and could mask the damage caused by celiac disease.

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions you describe, flu like symptoms, joint pain, urinary tract irritation, rash, stomach upset, nausea, diarrhoea & fatigue. I had liver pain like you describe, as part of the intolerance is usually a sluggish liver that makes processing all the histamine difficult. There are multiple possible root causes of histamine intolerance, usually it’s a symptom of something else. In my case, leaky gut (damaged gut wall)caused by undiagnosed celiac, but for others it’s leaky gut caused by other things like dysbiosis. Some people also experience histamine intolerance due to mould exposure or low levels of DAO (the enzyme that breaks down histamine in the gut). I’d try a low histamine diet & if that doesn’t improve symptoms fully, try low oxalate too. As others have suggested, supplements like vitamin d, b, l-glutamine to support a healthy gut & a good liver support supplement too. If you’re in a histamine flare take vitamin c to bowel tolerance & your symptoms will calm down (avoid if you find you have oxalate intolerance though). Best of luck

      @GeoPeanut, milk is one of the better sources of iodine. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. Many people find that a low iodine diet helps them avoid dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks. So, maybe the fact that you have limited your dairy intake of late is helping with that.

      Hi, I'm new here. Sorry for your troubles.herenis a thought to mull over. I recently was diagnosed with celiac disease,  and hashimoto's and dermatitis herpetiformis after getting covid 19. I eat butter, and 1/2 cup of Nancy's yogurt daily. I stopped all other dairy and  dermatitis herpetiformis is gone! I also make grass fed beef bone broth to help with myopathy that has occurred.
