I have been dianosed almost 3 weeks ago with celiac. I am trying to figure all this out. I am confused about the corn syrup. I have read that some are ok, How do I know which are? Also, I seem to experience a skin rash after I eat gluten by mistake, is this caused by the gluten?

Thanks

Sheila :rolleyes:

I have a huge problem with HFCS, corn syrup, and now corn oil, I think. This has been since pre-diagnosis. I did not test intolerant to corn, either. Did your doctor tell you to go off corn syrup, or do you have problems with it? You could be having a cross-reaction, or you could be getting glutened.

I have not been told by my dr. but just by reading, it suggest some corn sryups. So I have been trying to eliminate them. There is so much that contains corn sryup.

I avoid anything with corn syrup but that is because I have a corn intolerance (not allergic in the true sense of the word).

FitNut- Where did you read about eliminating corn syrup? I would be interested in reading that!

If corn is a problem for you? Corn no matter what -- is corn... It will be a problem.

Good luck, I know how difficult it is I also have a problem with corn. It's in everything even medications.

in terms of gluten, corn syrup and hfcs are safe.

I'm not certain I understand. If you aren't corn intolerant, then corn syrup and HFCS are NOT a problem. They do not have gluten.

      OTC pain reliever that are gluten-free and corn free??

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @trsprecker, I needed daily pain relief for three crushed vertebrae and found out that Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Cobalamin (Vitamins B 1, B 6, and B12) have an analgesic effect.   Mechanisms of action of vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6 (pyridoxine), and B12 (cobalamin) in pain: a narrative review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35156556/   This is the one I order through that big online store... It's made in Japan.  I've been taking it for a couple of years now without problems.   GSG 12X Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets I don't do corn, nuts nor artificial sweeteners, either!    Keep us posted on your progress!

      By trsprecker · Posted

      I am celiac with corn and tree nut allergies.  I am finding it difficult to find OTC pain reliever that are safe for me.  Any suggestions?  I also do not tolerate any artificial sweeteners including stevia and agave.   Thanks!

      There are other possible causes or damaged small bowel villi besides celiac disease. Google this: Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies There is also something known as seronegative celiac disease: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4586545/

      Not All Corn Grits are Safe

      By ShariW · Posted

      Quaker corn grits are not certified gluten-free! These may, in fact, be contaminated by cross-contact in the manufacturing process. I have been following a strict gluten-free diet for about 3 years, with varying results depending on cross-contact issues. My celiac testing was inconclusive - and I wasn't willing to go back on gluten long enough for a full celiac diagnosis. I get pretty severe symptoms just a few hours after ANY gluten ingestion, no matter how small, so gastrointestinal doc recommends continuing to follow a gluten-free diet. So whether I have celiac disease (I do have one celiac gene) or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, treatment is the same. I have enjoyed corn grits on occasion, but started seeing a pattern of gluten intake symptoms after large family breakfasts. This last time, I researched everything I might have ingested. My family is pretty good about cross-contact, too. When I got to the Quaker corn grits, I found they are not certified gluten-free, and the labeling does not say gluten free anywhere - although the only ingredients are corn grits, salt and some vitamins and minerals. The research I did confirms that while Quaker grits do not "contain" gluten ingredients, they may indeed be contaminated by cross-contact with glutens. I threw out all the grits (and corn meal) I had in the pantry, and bought some certified as gluten-free. Hopefully, next family breakfast will be better! 😋
