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."

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Weird Symptoms

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Weird Symptoms

      By Jeff Platt · Posted

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.

      Weird Symptoms

      By cristiana · Posted

      Not sure if related to coeliac disease but my ear ringing  has stepped up a notch since diagnosis.  Even since a child silence really hurts my ears - there is always a really loud noise if there is no other noise in a quiet room - but my brain has learned to filter it out.  Since diagnosis in my forties I also get a metallic ringing in my ears, sometimes just one, sometimes both.  But it comes and goes.   My sister also suffers now, we are both in our fifties, but she is not a coeliac, so for all I know it could just be an age thing.  I do get occasional stabbing pain in my ears but that has been all my life, and I do appear to be vulnerable to outer ear infections too.  So not a particularly helpful reply here, but I suppose what I am trying to say is it might be related but then again it could just be one of those things.   I think in the UK where I live doctors like you to report if you get tinnitus in just the one ear.  I reported mine but no cause was found.  Most of the time it is nothing but sometimes it can have a cause that can be treated, so perhaps worth reporting to your GP.
