I've been on the gluten free diet for a few weeks now.. and today my mom made banana bread with kinnikinnick mix instead of flour. I was so excited to be able to eat bread.. but now my stomach hurts like it used to.. I thought I could eat things made with the mix instead of flour.. we used all the other ingredients in the normal recipe.. margarine, sugar, eggs, banana, frozen fruit, baking soda, baking powder and salt..

Couple of things are coming to mind. You may have an intolerance or allegric reaction to something in the mix. I'm not familiar with it. Look at the ingredients to see if you can isolate the problem. Or there may be a cross contamination issue. Is your household completely gluten-free? Could there been an accidental dose of gluten?

My first guess is also cc. I worried about baking with my old baking soda, sugar, etc. I remember when I would have a recipe that would use a teaspoon I would put the teaspoon into the baking soda and maybe rinse it, maybe not, and then put it into the sugar or whatever else used that same measurement. I would also have the flour out which would get all over the counters and some could have landed on any of the other baking suppies. I got all new baking supplies and labeled them gluten-free so I knew they wasn't any flour crumbs in them.

Also, the pan you baked it in. If it has an tough corners or scratches there may be some gluten that wasn't washed out. I use separate pots and pans and baking pans so that I don't have to worry about that.

Lastly, in the beginning your system is healing. It is much easier to eat basic foods like meats, veggies, fruits and rice. You may find there are other things that you can no longer eat - many of us have long lists now. If you keep eating processed foods it may take longer to feel better because you may not be tolerating some of the chemicals well. I realize this bread was homemade, but I would stick to basic foods until you really have the diet under control and you are feeling much better.

Also, some margarines have unspecified food starch. Found that out the hard way....

Kinnikinnik breads make my stomach hurt sometimes. I don't have a clue why. I have been avoiding all processed foods that don't agree with me, even if they are gluten free.

Sorry you are miserable.

      High Folate Levels

      By Tyoung · Posted

      I was diagnosed in November with celiacs and at the time had been tested for multiple vitamin deficiencies. During that time my folate level was 4ng/mL, Although I was told to take supplements, I ended up only taking them for a week or so as they made my stomach upset. I had my blood work redone yesterday and as the results came in I noticed that most of my levels are now normal, but folate level is >24ng/mL. Has anyone else had similar results? If so were you able to figure out why or how to normalize them? I also have been having constant acid reflux since about two weeks into going gluten free (no acid reflux history prior to) that we are trying to get to the bottom of with no answers. Could that be related? Thank you!! Also wanted to not that I am not eating any gluten free processed food.

      Do I have celiac/Gluten sensitivity?

      By JohannesW85 · Posted

      Did you take a look at my pics that I uploaded?    These rashes is not itchy, but I have seen that people have this too that have celiac and it’s not itchy for them either. I have also heard that sulfur burps are a common things with celiac too.  Yes it can be something else too but it’s to much symptoms that I have that match with either gluten sensitivity or celiac.   Hopefully it’s just gluten intolerance and not celiac.  As I said before I have the gen type for celiac and diabetes typ 1 and the those diseases going hand in hand.    Thanks again Trent for your time to reply, and I wonder if any body else have kind of the same symptoms that I have?

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Welcome Connie Smitj,  Did you have a follow up test to see if the treatment for H Pylori was successful?  It's possible to catch it again, especially from a partner.  When I contracted it a second time my wife was tested and was positive for two of the bacteria in H Pylori.

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Connie Smitj! Can you give us a little more history about your celiac journey? How long ago were you diagnosed and how long have your been gluten free? Do you have other symptoms besides quick onset of hunger after eating and gut pain? How long have these symptoms being happening?

      Hunger, nervous stomach or Hpylori?

      By Connie Smitj · Posted

      I eat a gluten-free diet but hunger pains start within an hour of eating dinner. I  had h pylori infection before I was diagnosed. Occasionally I’ll have bouts of pain. Could it come back or is it just celiac disease?
