I think sugar products are making me really nauseous. I haven't been this nauseous since I was pre-gluten-free. Ugh!! Does anyone else have this?

YES! I'm also sensitive to cane sugar. After eating cane sugar I react with tachycardia (rapid heart beat), panicky feelings, shakiness, irritability, nausea and eventually headache. However I also tested positive (IgG antibodies) to cane sugar on the ELISA test.

Many people with gluten intolerance and/or celiac disease also have other food allergies. Once you eliminate the gluten and no longer experience intense gluten reaction symptoms, you may discover that you react to several other foods, though none cause as intense a reaction as gluten. Consider getting an ELISA test for other food allergies to determine exactly which foods you should avoid. Elimination diets are very unreliable. People can be allergic to even 'safe' foods.

Cane sugar is in the 'grass' family like wheat, rye, rice, etc. So you can develop cane sugar allergy, if you have gluten sensitivity. I don't react to beet sugar, honey, maple syrup, agave, corn syrup, rice nectar or fruit sweetners. Although many processed foods contain cane sugar, there are many other 'safe' substitutes.

Candida albicans overgrowth can do that too.

I believe it to be far more common in recently gluten-free celiacs than the publicity, or lack thereof, it seems to get.

But if vinegar doesn't also make you uncomfortable, then it's probably not candida.

Good luck figuring it out!

I sometimes seem to have this problem with sugar too. I had some chocolate raisins this morning :ph34r: before going to the GPs and my pulse when he measured it was 106 :blink: I know I've got to get myself sorted, although now's not a good time to have to give up chocolate...but what I was wondering Burdee is how do you tell what type of sugar something has in it? I looked at the choclate raisins and it just says 'sugar'. Do you avoid everything processed that says it has 'sugar' in it?

      Celebrity Cruise for Gluten Free

      Just finished my second celebrity cruise. My first was on one of their oldest ships, it was awesome! Now we have sailed on the edge class. Wow! Not only do they have so many gluten-free options but the selection is mind blowing! Any given day you will have between 5 to 7 different gluten-free cakes to try. Yes that is right, one day at the coffee shop I had...

She also has recently decreased on her growth curve her % going down gradually. After seeing a gastroenterologist, her IgG GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGG) was 22.4 while her IGA was normal.

It is caused by excess keratin, a protein that forms hair, nails, and skin. Iodine is not directly related to keratosis pilaris, but certain foods can help improve it" It could be deficiency in iodine may be causing the keratosis Polaris.  Insufficient iodine intake affects healing, intellegence skin and nails. The average intake of iodine fell 50% from 1970 to now.  A Medium Urinary Iodine Concentration test will indicate intake.  TSH and T4 will not show iodine intake deficiency until damage is being done. Most newly diagnosed Celiac Disease and other autoimmune diseases are deficient in vitamin D when diagnosed.  Other than bone growth, vitamin D is essential for mental health and the immune system.

      Celebrity Cruise for Gluten Free

      By gregoryC · Posted

      Just finished my second celebrity cruise. My first was on one of their oldest ships, it was awesome! Now we have sailed on the edge class. Wow! Not only do they have so many gluten-free options but the selection is mind blowing! Any given day you will have between 5 to 7 different gluten-free cakes to try. Yes that is right, one day at the coffee shop I had to choose between 5 gluten-free cakes not including the several puddings on display. So they gave me a small piece of each. 2 were great, 2 were just good, and 1 I did not enjoy. But never have I had the tough decision of which cake to eat?  These selections are from their normal options available for all guest. In the main dining room they always surprised me with some awesome desserts.  In my opinion the best pizza was on the Millennium class and best buffet on the Edge class. Although these two ship vary in size they are both consistent and serving high quality food from the main dinning room. The edge class gives you 4 “main” dining rooms (all included). I was unsure how this would work with my gluten-free diet? It worked great! I was able to order or see the next night’s menu for each of the four dinning venues finding that very little to no modifications needed to be made due to their extensive gluten free options.  The Millennium and Edge class ships provide the best gluten-free options from any of the cruise lines I have sailed with. You will find a larger selection and options on the edge class ships, however you will not be disappointed with the smaller Millennium class. Which is still my favorite cruise ship to date.

      Welcome to the forum, @ABP! We can't comment on the test numbers you give as you didn't include the range for negative. Different labs use different units and different ranges. There are no industry standards for this so we need more information. If your daughter doesn't have celiac disease she still could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which some experts believe can be a precursor to celiac disease and is 10x more common than celiac disease. However, there is no test for it yet but it does share many of the same symptoms with celiac disease. Both require complete abstinence from gluten.  It is seldom the case during testing where all tests are positive, even for those who do have celiac disease. This is no different than when diagnosing other medical conditions and that is why it is typical to run numbers of tests that come at things from different angles when seeking to arrive at a diagnosis. It seems like you are at the point, since you have had both blood antibody testing and endoscopy/biopsy done, that you need to trial the gluten free diet. If her symptoms improve then you know all you need to know, whatever you label you want to give it. But given that apparently at least one celiac antibody blood test is positive and she has classic celiac symptoms such as slow growth, constipation and bloating, my money would be on celiac disease as opposed to NCGS.

      My nine-year-old daughter has suffered with severe constipation and bloating for years as well as frequent mouth sores, and keratosis Polaris on her arms. She also has recently decreased on her growth curve her % going down gradually.  After seeing a gastroenterologist, her IgG GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGG) was 22.4 while her IGA was normal. Her TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA was 11.9.  Most recently her genetic test for celiac was positive.  After an endoscopy her tissue showed inflammation of the tissue as well as , increased intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) but there was no blunting of the change in the villi.    It seems that every result that we get one out of two things positive rather than all leading to an inconclusive diagnosis. While we do have another appointment with the doctor to go over the results. I'm curious based on this information what others think.    I would hate to have her eliminate gluten if not necessary- but also don't want to not remove if it is necessary.    Signed Confused and Concerned Mama
