Aspartame

Hello,

I have been doing some research on aspartame (enough to make me decide to quit drinking diet sodas), and am wondering if the common side effects (diarrhea, esp) affect us worse than non-celiacs?

Anyone have any info?

Thanks, Dinah

Hello Dinah,

I think the effects of aspartame are bad even if you are not celiac. Aspartame has caused my headaches and once I figured it out I stopped. Not only is this in soft drinks but many other items as well (including gum). Diet Rite contains splenda which does not effect me so becomes an occasional replacement when I just want a soda drink.

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      By trents · Posted

      I'm wondering if this is the same issue some celiacs have with distilled liquors. The complete gluten molecule is too large and heavy to to travel up with the vapor but if their are gluten fragments created by the heat, they may not be and the immune systems of some celiacs still recognize it as gluten. I have no scientific proof for this, just a thought because we have so many forum contributors who still react to these "gluten removed" products.

      Thanks, Scott and Trents. Scott, tastes vary of course. The metallic taste may just be me. As to the filtration efficacy, I can only add that the micron level to remove a smaller protein chain must be pretty tight. What about the impact of hydrolization on the R5 test? I've been told it presents a challenge. Trents, thanks for the clarification. I did not draw this distinction, but can. I honestly didn't perceive the nuance.  Appreciate the feedback from you both.

      Medicinal mushrooms 🍄

      I don’t think it matters much if you trust the supplier, I get them from a Welsh company maesyffin mushrooms but I think the guy there has retired from growing now and just resells eu imports so it’s probably the same mushrooms he uses to make the tinctures as the company you posted. It’d probably be cheaper to buy dried and make your own tincture.

      Could this be Celiac disease?

      Thank you for your prompt reply. Have others experienced LUQ and L sided back pain when on gluten? Could gluten be irritating the pancreas to cause the slight rise in lipase?

      Wow! I'd be interested to know where you get the tinctures. You can DM me if you wish. There's a Spanish company ... hifasdaterra ... who make high quality medicinal mushrooms in capsule form.
