Roasted Corn

I had gone pumpkin picking at my mother's house the past weekend all I had that morning was a cup of coffee and then when we got to the pumpkin patch I decided I wanted to have roasted corn. I wound up eating about 3 which was not good on my behalf, after the pumpkin picking we went home it was me and my children and my husband and I was fine for maybe about two and a half hours, then all of a sudden I got this horrible horrible abdominal pain it lasted all the way until the next morning which was Monday morning. Monday morning when I woke up I couldn't move at all I have been throwing up all night into Monday and Monday into Tuesday. I'm still not sure what's going on with me it is now Wednesday and I'm a little bit better but I still have this pain in my stomach I'm not sure if it was food poisoning or I just can't eat corn but I have eaten corn my whole life growing up usually out of the can or Frozen and never had a problem like this. If anybody has any advice to give me or if they know about this or had it happen to themselves please let me know because I really don't know what to do I can't take this pain anymore my head is pounding I'm afraid to eat anything. Thanks a lot

That sounds like food poisoning to me, since (1) corn has no gluten in it and (2) you have been eating corn fine your whole life. The only other alternative would have been if they used a coating or spices with gluten in it, but it seems unlikely to me for some reason. 

Hope you're feeling better.

Sounds like food poisoning. Is this the same or similar reaction you get to CC?

Did any of your family have it too? Who cooked it? Did you ask them what they used to prepare it? Was it cooked on a grill alone or in the husk? What else was cooked at the same time?

Did you eat the corn right at the farm?  Was it removed from the husk and roasted or was it washed?  I cannot tolerate GMO corn and get very sick with ANY pesticides, especially Round Up.  Something to think about.

Are you the only one in your family that ate the corn? If others ate it and didn't get sick then that would likely rule out food poisoning. Was it roasted on a grill that may have had gluten foods cooked on it previously? Did they have lots of straw bales around for decoration or to sit on?  So many possibilities. I hope you feel better soon.

How about gluttony?  Three ears?  That much corn can be hard to digest for anyone, let alone a celiac with a damaged gut. 

I hope you feel better soon!

      Gluten-like cross reactions to other foods are from the proteins that make them up. Dextrose is the sugar component found in corn.

      I just found out a few days ago that some salt like table salt contains dextrose that’s derived from corn. I’ve been thinking about getting rid of using table salt and just using my own kosher or Himalayan salt, but tbh I’m reluctant to do it. I’ve cut out a lot of things and I don’t really want to cut out anything else that I’m not sure will effect me…in a super small amount that it might be added to salts to stabilize the iodine. I don’t want to be further alienated when I have to go to a restaurant with my friends. Also most of the items at my house that have salt in it canned food etc. are some of the few quick things I can eat- because I’m not the one paying for the food in my household and i can only ask for so much. I’m not in a place financially where I can get a lot of my specialized items- although my family tries their best to get items I Can actually stand. I get I can bring a my own salt with me at a restaurant and ask for no seasoning but it feels like a lot to me- cause I already check for cross contamination and ask if the food has like a high volume of corn in it like cornstarch etc. I’ve also heard most dextrose is not derived from the Zein (corn gluten) portion of it- so it might be safe- but idk if that’s true. I just wanna know if anyone actually responded to it negatively.

      For my first couple of years after discovering my celiac disease I also had to avoid cow's milk/casein and eggs, as well as other things, but could tolerate duck eggs and sheep and goat's milk products. I'm not sure if you've tried those, but it could be worth testing them out.

      Hello, @Kwinkle, How are you doing?   Have you tried adding a Magnesium supplement?   The B Complex vitamins need magnesium to work properly, especially thiamine vitamin B 1.   Magnesium deficiency symptoms and Thiamine deficiency symptoms both include gas and bloating.  Thiamine deficiency symptoms also include loss of appetite and fatigue.   My gas and bloating resolved rather quickly when I took Benfotiamine (a form of thiamine shown to promote intestinal healing) and Magnesium Glycinate in addition to my B 50 Complex (all twice a day plus the following...).   I found Magnesium L-Threonate or Magnesium Taurate are better when taken with a form of thiamine called TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl dusulfide) because all of these cross the blood brain barrier easily, which corrects the loss of appetite, fatigue and anxiety.    Like @Celiacandme said, keeping a food/mood/poo'd journal is a big help in finding problematic foods, and for making sure your diet is not carbohydrate heavy.  If you're eating a lot if processed gluten free facsimile foods, be aware they do not have vitamins and minerals added to them like their gluten containing counterparts.  For every 1000 kcal of carbohydrates, we need an extra 500 mg of thiamine to turn them into energy and not store them as fat.   Let us know how you're doing!

      Yes, if you had symptoms when eating gluten ruling out celiac disease won't necessarily mean you'll be able to eat gluten again, although it might mean that you may be able to be less strict with your gluten-free diet.
