If you have intestinal damage or irritation, it may take some time for you to heal. All foods, can be an irritating, regardless of it's gluten free status.

Many people here do have additional food intolerance's. But, I would make sure you have removed the gluten for some some before you try other things. Gluten has a very loud voice. One you eliminate gluten other voices can be heard.

OH... and welcome.

Ditto to the above advice.

What else are you using to make the gravy?

You might want to try to eat "simple" foods at first. Starches, sugars, grains, etc. are pretty hard to digest for a sick digestion system.

BTW I get very sick from corn starch too. I don't do any grains right now. I hope in a while to introduce them very very slowly.

Check the bouillon cubes--some contain gluten. We use Bovril bouillon powder.

      Thank you for the warning. I get blood tests twice a year to check where I stand with the vitamins I regularly take, so I appreciate the extra reminder. I know some vitamins don’t build up but now I will watch the B6 for sure.

      High dosage of B12 gave me life.

      I think you would do well to take a high potency B-complex such that you get more balanced dosage across the spectrum of B vitamins. They work in concert.

      Around 5 years ago I visited Tokyo, and luckily had my sister in law with me who is from there, otherwise it would have been more difficult. The bottom line is that there are tons of naturally gluten-free food options there, but you need to be able to communicate your needs to restaurant staff. Here is a gluten-free restaurant card for American visitors in Tokyo. It includes a request for a gluten-free meal and mentions common gluten-containing ingredients to avoid, like soy sauce and miso. English: Thank you. Japanese:   You can also download the Google Translate app, and besides being able to help you speak with people there about this, it has a camera app that translates Japanese text to English in your camera, so you can use it when shopping in a supermarket.

      Be careful about how much B6 you take, as it can cause issues if you take too much of it over time.
