Why would someone react to foods at certain times of the day and not others?

Hi,

I am having a very strange issue that I was hoping someone might be able to shed some light on.

I've noticed that I seem to be reacting to foods at certain times of the day and not at other times. For example, yesterday I ate the following for lunch:

Salmon

Potato

Green beans

Peas

Corn

Carrot

I reacted to one or more of the above foods. This is not what I usually eat for lunch, but here's the thing: I eat this exact meal for dinner at least once a week and I never react to it. This has only happened when I tried eating it for lunch. So what exactly is the problem here?

I've had the same thing happen with cauliflower and broccoli. I can eat those for dinner no problem, but when I tried eating them for lunch I reacted to one or both of them.

The only explanation I can think of is that it's a delayed reaction from something I've eaten earlier in the day?

Any ideas why this might be happening?

Google histamines and mast cell disease.  We run out of antioxidants as the day goes on.

But wouldn't that mean I would be having the problem later in the day instead of earlier?

Did you prepare yourself?  I would s inspect cross contamination.

When you say "react," what exactly do you mean? Is this a gluten reaction? Do you have additional food intolerance issues or allergies? There are many things that can cause reactions, and not all are related to gluten.

I don't know what kind of reaction it is, that's why I'm asking.

The problem I'm having is that I seem to be able to eat foods at certain times of the day and I can tolerate it, but eaten at a different time of day the same food will cause symptoms. It is literally the same food, just eaten at a different time of day. I've gone into more detail in the original post.

I think it would make sense for you to keep a food diary to see if you can find a common link with your reaction and a particular food. From your list, corn stands out as a common issue for many celiacs. Perhaps start by eliminating it for a couple of weeks, then add it back. You could then do this for other foods.

corn bothers me a lot - goes right through me and gives me stomach pain as well as nuts and seeds

Thanks everyone.

I forgot to mention, I do have an intolerance to high histamine foods, so that could mean I am reacting to the green beans and peas, but it wouldn't explain the reaction to cauliflower and broccoli. And again, the reactions only happen some of the time, not all the time, which makes it even more confusing.

I have a theory that my morning coffee is raising my histamine levels and then when I eat more high histamine foods on top of that, it causes a reaction.

A food diary is probably a good idea.

@Aaron, 

Cauliflower and broccoli are members of the Cruciferous family of veggies.  They contain high levels of Sulfites.  Peas are high in Sulfites, too, although they don't belong to this class of veggies.

Here's an interesting article...

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4017440/

Since Sulfites are used in many processed foods, you may want to consider eating fresh foods only.  

Check your medications to see if they contain Sulfites.  

I supplemented Molybdenum, as it is needed to process Sulfites out of the body.  

Hope this helps!

P.S. Sulfite Sensitivity can cause hives.

Thanks for this information.

Now that you mention it, I have previously reacted to some packaged foods that had sulfites listed as an allergen.

I don't have hives by the way, the symptoms that I get from reactions are mostly fatigue, depression, brain fog, and upset stomach.

my morning coffee is raising my histamine levels

Do you use milk in your morning coffee? I drink a lot of coffee throughout the day and finally noticed that as the day went on, I put less milk in it so that by bedtime it was practically black. Caused a burning in my gut. Sometimes woke me later and I had to take an Alka Selzer to go back to sleep. Switching to 100% Pasture fed, no grains dairy solved it. Commercial dairy has at least double the omega 6 as grass-fed. Omega 6 is inflammatory and the aspirin in Alka Selzer (original) is anti-inflammatory and the sodium bicarbonate is an antacid. It's been my go-to for 40 years now. The attack on aspirin started when Tylenol started advertising that 9 out of ten hospitals choose Tylenol, in the previous century.

"Get fast relief of heartburn, sour stomach, acid indigestion with headache or body aches with this effervescent antacid and pain reliever that has been around for more than 80 years."

      My 16yr daughter was recently diagnosed

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I’m so sorry to hear about the challenges you and your daughter are facing. A celiac diagnosis, especially during adolescence, can be overwhelming, and it’s understandable that she’s struggling with the lifestyle changes it requires. Coupled with the complexities of self-medication and signs of an eating disorder, this is undoubtedly a difficult time for your family. It’s great that you’re already engaged in therapies—this is a crucial step. For celiac disease, connecting with support groups (like those from the Celiac Disease Foundation) and working with a dietitian specializing in gluten-free diets can help ease the transition. For the emotional and mental health aspects, family therapy or support groups for parents of teens with similar struggles might provide additional tools and comfort. You’re doing the right thing by seeking help and information—stay patient and compassionate with both your daughter and yourself as you navigate this journey together.

      By JuggaloDad · Posted

      It is only the very start of this journey but it's actually been one of the hardest things we have had to deal with as parents.she started complaining about her stomach and after months and test after test the diagnosis came back as Celiac disease but while this was happening she has been self medicating with THC and also started making showing signs of a eating disorder, we are in therapies of all sorts in relation to these issues and well I'm just reaching out to find any and all information tools and knowledge as at 16 my daughter is fighting the change but it will be with her for a lifetime so I just trying to do all I can do ... If anyone can help with anything like anything mentioned please reach out to me.....thank you all for existing

      Once you have removed the inflammatories, it is time to focus on the deficiencies.  A lot of them not specific to Celiac, but deficiency in them elicits symptoms associated with Celiac. According to research, celiac disease tends to be more prevalent in urban areas compared to rural areas.  Same is true with airborne viruses.  Because urban residents get less sunlight.  To top it off we use lotion and gear to block the little light there is.  This compremises the vitamin D blood level.  A virus attack further lowers vitamin D and the immune system loses control over the Celiac genes and they go into acute symptoms. 40% to 75% depending depending on country are vitamin D deficient. 50% do not eat the Adequit Intake for potassium (4700 mg a day) 90% do n ot eat the Adequit Intake for Choline. Iodine intake since 1970 had dropped 50%.  The western diet is typically excessive in omega 6 fatty acid compared to omega 3.  Above 14:1 by some estimates.  So they sell us expensive, processed oils to compensate.  Anyway after 10 years gluten free myself,  here is what has helped me in just the past few years; once I realized I was at a healing plateau and just GFD would not cut it, and reallized my deficiencies.  Most recently, I started a statin which I only took for two weeks before it started to cripple me.   Got a prescription for Nicotinic Acid to 2000 and am more flexible now Plus HDL went 29 to 44, eGFR from 55 to 79. I also learned if the pharmacist gets a prescription for Niacin that it is dealer's choice whether you get Nicotinic Acid or Niacinimide.  And it comes out of a regular vitamin manufacturer.   "likely deficiencies and what I take to boost my intake (I get anorexic at the drop of a hat so I take them to keep me stable):  the ones that helped me the most noticibly Was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Nicotinic Acid - increase capillary blood flow, lower cholesterol. I recently started 2000 mg a day instead of a statin which I cannot tolerate. I the first month my HDL went from 29 to 44. eGFR (kidney function) jumped from 55 ti 75. It also has make my whole body less stiff. The ichy, flushing with the first few doses goes away. The non flush forms of vitamin B3 do not work. It is the relaxing of the capillaries and tendons. 500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation Whole Milk Vanilla yogurt to which I add 100 grams of raspberrys, black berries and blueberries has lots of probiotics and makes my tummy and body happy. Red Bull has sugar (not high fructose corn syrup) and the vitamins (B2,3,5,6 need to metabolize to ATP energy and Taurine as an antioxident). It is a good source of energy for me because my genetic hyperlipidemia does not process complex carbs well.

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By trents · Posted

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