Brown Sugar

Has anyone ever had a reaction to brown sugar? The other day I had a bowl of grits and used brown sugar and soy milk (dairy protien allergy) and about 15 minutes later I was so sick, diarreah and throwing up, chills and shaking? :( I am so confused, still trying to muddle through and figure out what I can and can't eat. I would have used regular sugar but the dietician I went to said that brown had more calories and since I am still loosing weight (5'4" and 104 lbs) she wanted me to use the brown instead of the regular.

C & H brand is Gluten Free. Many other brands are just white sugar with additivies. You might want to check out what brand you used. Best wishes.

      Thank you so much for the detailed reply! I was just eating my normal diet so wasn't going out of my way to eat gluten. The week before my blood test I actually had a stomach virus so I wasn't eating much of anything so I do wonder if that contributed at all. Before the biopsy I was just eating my normal amount of gluten, I would say two slices of bread per day would likely be about what I was having maybe a tad more. It was mostly white bread and some pasta though.

      There is no such thing a "mild celiac disease," and your blood test results and biopsy results indicate that you indeed likely have an issues with gluten.  It also would make no sense for you to go gluten-free for two months and get the blood test done again--I can predict the results for you--negative. The real question here is how much gluten were you eating before your last blood test? You should have been told to eat 2-6 slices of wheat bread a day for 6-8 weeks before the test, otherwise your results will likely be lower than if you had followed the proper testing protocol. The same is true for the biopsy--how much gluten were you eating daily in the 2 weeks before that test?  This article...

      Welcome to the forum. You have two positive blood tests for celiac disease, and have symptoms, so there is a high probability that you have it, or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, regardless of the biopsy results. Unfortunately studies have shown that biopsies often miss taking samples in the appropriate areas, or taking enough samples, or properly interpreting the samples that are taken, so false negatives can be common. Were you eating gluten daily, lots of it (at least 2 slices of wheat bread's worth) for 6-8 weeks leading up to the blood test, and for at least 2 weeks before the endoscopy? If  not, your blood test results might be lower scores than if you had followed this protocol, and your...

      My iron was not low, but my B-12 levels were extremely low.  I had zero energy.  I had micronutrient testing and I was put on a boatload of supplements.  Everything recovered pretty quickly except for my D, B12 and antioxidant levels.  The doctor ordered genetic testing and found that I have a genetic inability to process all three.  Thus, my dosages were increased, and I was advised I would need to take them for the rest of my life.

      Thanks for sharing. It look like a helpful app for celiacs.
