Still Bothered By Other Things...

Hey guys, I've been gluten free for a few weeks now (aside from a few cross contaminations and a mistake or 2) and I'm having a lot of problems with dairy and sugar. If I drink soda or eat candy that is gluten free and processed away from wheat or other contaminants I get digestive symptoms as if I've eaten gluten. I can eat a little cheese on a taco or on a burger, but if there's too much I go off. What's the deal? I'm not lactose intolerant.

This leads me to my next question, which is how big of a setback in the recovery process is a glutening incident or a dairy trigger? If I'm still recovering from 4 months of not knowing about this condition, will eating a crouton set me back a day? A week? Is there any way to know?

Hello! Time frame,setback? Not sure......On the the other deal you mentioned, there is a host of other things that could be a problem,dairy, sugar, CC on and on, but what stands out to me is "corn" as in corn syrup.....Soda, candy, a lot of it is made with corn. Corn intolerance and/or allergy is a huge issue in this country. I speak from experience. I had this "other nagging issue" and just could not figure it out until I was tested for "the big 8". I would really think about getting other food

testing done. Hope this helps! Mike

P.S. Did you know that table salt with iodine has dextrose (corn) in it? I didn't.

If it is sugar or cheese that makes you have digestive issues. I would look into candida. It can cause lots of terrible digestive issues that sometimes feel similiar to an gluten reaction.

      Popcorn pain

      @JenFur, if this is microwave popcorn you are using, check for added ingredients that could be causing a reaction such as flavorings which might be hidden sources of gluten.

      Popcorn pain

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @JenFur! You must be relatively new to the celiac journey. I wish it were as simple as just having to cut out gluten and all our gut issues magically disappear. It is very common for those with celiac disease to develop intolerance/sensitivity to other foods. Often it is because the protein structure of some other foods resembles that of gluten. Sometimes it is because damage the damage done to the gut lining by celiac disease wipes out cells that produce enzymes needed to break down those foods. Sometimes it is because the "leaky gut syndrome" associated with celiac disease causes the immune system to incorrectly identify other food proteins as threats or invaders. The two most common non-gluten foods that cause trouble for a lot of celiacs are dairy and oats. But soy, eggs and corn are also on that list. Sometimes these non-gluten food intolerances disappear with time and the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel.

      I love popcorn but it doesn't love me.  Right now my gut hurts and I am bloated and passing gas.  Am I just super sensitive. I thought popcorn was gluten free 🤔

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Long term recovery

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.
