:huh:

Ok, so I'm a big nacho fan. I used to munch on Tostitos & Old El Paso salsa but didn't feel well, got headaches, and some stomach cramps. Today I tried the plain Rice Works chips with that Old El Paso salsa and same thing ! Rice Works are labelled gluten free & I've never had issues with them. I was under the impression that the salsa was safe...is it ? Anyone else had issues ???

I'm thinking it's CC maybe...all out gluten also gives me nausea in addition to stomach cramps. CC usually makes me very tired and headachy...and achy...that Tylenol won't touch. :( Oh, and acid reflux...ugh.

Old El Paso will clearly disclose any gluten source in the ingredients. I don't know if the salsa is gluten-free as I don't use it and so don't have a label to look at. CC is always a possibility, though.

Unfortunately, we all need to remember that not all of our symptoms come from gluten. You might have a digestive issue with corn (very common). I can eat corn in some forms and not in others. I am able to tolerate the Tostitos Gold, but not the others. I can't eat a ton, but I can eat a handful. The corn in the Gold chips are ground up super fine. Or, you might not be able to handle the acid in the salsa...just a thought.

I don't believe I have an issue with corn, I do eat it at other times with no issues. Does anyone know of a salsa brand I can trust ???? I'm in Canada.

Can you get La Victoria? It states right on the bottle gluten free. Also 505 salsa states the same. Hope that helps.

      Could this be Celiac disease?

      By Chissers · Posted

      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.

      Jason, I have a bone to pick with your terminology. There is "gluten intolerance" which I believe is synonymous with celiac disease and then there is "gluten sensitivity" which comes from Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or NCGS for short. It is true, however, that there is still a lot of inconsistency in the use of these terms.

      Medicinal mushrooms 🍄

      I can’t say this will work for everyone but for me the difference is incredible so might be worth trying. I’ve never been diagnosed celiac but via an elimination diet I realised I can’t eat any lectins, gluten soy and oats are particularly problematic. If I eat them I’m in bed for a week, then heavy bleeding and extreme pain for another, followed by a third week of bleeding on and off. My skin was a mess and it snowed when I brushed my hair. Since taking reishi and cordyceps mushroom tincture I can’t believe the difference, I’ve had a lot of help from this site so I want to return the favour. I took the tincture for my guts but the most apparent effect is that I feel like my brain works again, I can’t begin to describe how wonderful it is to be able to achieve basic things, I’ve barely been able to organise getting out of bed for so long, it feels like I haven’t been hit over the head with a mallet for the first time in years. Then I glutened myself, not necessarily gluten as so many things wipe me out but definitely ate something I shouldn’t have, I took a treble dose of the tincture and almost immediately felt much better so continued with the increased dose and three days (not weeks) later was back to feeling great, no bleeding involved. My skin is better than I can remember it ever being, I feel great 😊. I spend £1.50 a day on these but it’s worth every penny, I hope this helps someone else out there reading this. I wish I’d known about them 20 years ago. best wishes everyone 🍄
