Brown Rice & White Rice Pastas

Been gluten free for almost 2 years now.

Ok I don't know what to do whenever I eat rice pastas they turn to bricks in my system. I am not kidding.

I eat 6 bil organisms of probiotis a day.. I thought the brown rice was a whole grain pasta? (I eat Tinkyada)

Last night I cooked it with a sauce I made with coconut milk, broth and butternut squash.

Anyone else have this problem?

Hm, I've wondered about rice myself. I don't know, I haven't narrowed it down enough, but something's still bothering me. Hope you can get it figured out.

Thank you Sweetie!! I hope you get it figured out too!

I noticed for about the first 6 months after I went gluten free I was feeling better and then since then I have been feeling "off" again.

Be well!:)

I have a mild reaction to rice, and if the reaction you are having is mild you probably want to keep it that way so you can still eat it at times

My doctor has me on a rotation diet so I only eat rice once every four days and that keeps it under control, also another thing that helps is soaking or sprouting your rice to get rid of the anti nutrients

(google sprouting grains)

good luck

That is a great idea Janessa, I didn't even think to sprout it! And I will omit it for a few months and try it on rotation.

You are the best!

This sounds exactly like me!! Had to cut out dairy, and then I was better for awhile...then started feeling it again. It's so frustrating!

Bout time you showed up <G>

I've had a hard time with brown rice in that past year too. never did before but my body is going though a lot of changes again that I've not figured out.I was supposed to be in INdia for 2 months but last week caught Pneumonia then broke a rib coughing and tory the muscles on the left side of my chest. -- yeah been strange -- although diet as been fine since going gluten-free, i started having to take the diabetes pills which I'm not happy about -- cut out most of the remaining carbs especially rice and if I do it some -- well like you said its like a brick in my gut. Looks like dairy is going the way of the dodo too.

Pretty soon I'll be limited to that which I work and promote -- tropical fruit.

take a look at the new posters on my site too

I also see you have a problem with dairy, I do too and I switched to eating goat dairy and raw dairy products with no problems. I rotate these too but it helps so much to have dairy back in my diet.

Of course if you have very strong reactions I don't recommend it.

Glad your back!

I'll be ok if I dont cough, laugh, sneeze, talk above a wisper and so on.

I never experienced the type of pain from a broken rib before-- --

Instead of rice, I'll start testing Awa, Hie and Kibi which are 3 types of millets from Japan.

Here we just tend to lump them all together as millet but they really have it down. IN ancient times in Japan the samurai were paid in koku (bushel) of rice. Often the farmers did not have enough for themselves so they ate the different millets. Just got some here so I hope to play them soon.

Take care

I am so sorry about your Diabetes, Ken. My Sister was just diagnosed literally last week.

Tropical fruit ALWAYS makes me feel better!!!:)

Did you have to take a retarded amout of Antibiotics when you had the Pneumonia?

How did you recover after all that?

:)

glad to be back

(or did I say that already...:)

I was feeling really "off" for about 3 months- healing from Adrenal Exhaustion and was just incredibly "spaced out" I could barely drive to the store I was feeling so off. And I wasn't feeling creative at all so I didn't even want to think about writing recipes or anything I love doing. But brain is 100% and feeling better since I quit eating rice altogether a few days ago.

Do you think I could pick up those millets @ asian grocery? :)

I sure know that off feeling-- its been so strange since all of this started - with leg pains so they gave me a test for deep vin thrombosis and vericose veins -- which run in the family. no problem so I started wearing socks at night which solved the leg pain issue.

after that the flu- which turned to the pneumonia which they didnt catch at all and as you said ultra amounts of antibiotics which I have to take daily if i get well enough to go to India. -- im wondering if I"m allergic to the diabetes meds or something else. Or another allergy is starting. dock said to lay off yeast.. in any case I cant leave for work in india until I can cough or sneeze without doubling over in pain.

the last 2 days I had no energy and keep taking my pulse since it keeps feeling like my heart was going bonkers.

walk down stairs but feel like I ran a marathon. that snot it -- always like I want to claw my skin off ( didnt rent that movie while laid up)

so I dont know what to do other than jin shin jyutsu which is really good. Never tried it until I busted the rib --

Sure glad your back and feeling better

if you want to email your address I can send something in regular mail. Not sure whats left but should have some of the millets.

I know there are some noodles here with one of the millets.

You know, Ken, I have noticed over the last year&1/2 I have noticed yeast sensitivities(when I eat bread esp) I get all bloated for like 24 hours... I have unofficially given up bread since 4/20 when I quit rice & rice-based flours bread etc

this is even when I am eating a responsible amount of probiotics etc...

hope you get it all squared away!!! :)

Thanks -- seems to be a constant battle these days.

I did try one of the millet's last night. kibi in Japanese. No problem some far. I think some of my bloating might be from the yeast too. Really should stop it.

have farmers market soup base in the crock pot now. Bought 1 type of veggie from each of the vendors, cut it up and threw in the spices from out back -- really good soup. too bad its like 95 here today!

Anyway I met it about sending some of the awa, kibi or hiya if you want to try it. some of it you can see in the pictures on my site.

take care

I found some regular Organic Milet @ my my health food store! Bought 2 pounds :) HA

I am going to experiment this week! Come up with a few recipes :) I am excited

When I first began the probiotics I was taking like 30 bil organisms a day for about 6 months until I started to get my balance back- then I lowered it to 24 (bil) for another 6, and now I take 6 bil a day.

So how's that farmer's market soup base turn out?

it was 33 when I woke up yesterday morning! HAHAHA :lol:

they are promising 60 by Saturday...

night!

I'm cold just thinking about those temps... been perfect here for awhile. Glad you could find the millet. See if you can find the botanic name for the type you bought. the 3 types in japan all have different botanic names yet all translate to millet.

I'll be looking forward to the recipes too. In the veggie broth I stuck some beets. After 4 hours I took them out and ate them. Forgot how much I liked beets!

Dont know if I should do probiotics or not now. I need to get in balance but its more overall and not just a gastro issue.

It is getting better and I need to just give it time, more sleep and not over do it and rush off to quickly.

Was supposed to be in India this week so that will just have to wait.

Take care

Wound up making 3 crock pot's of soup -- vegetable broth, classic french onion and something akin to a Le Escoffier consume

Had two bowls of onion, 1 consume and froze the rest to use when needed.

      @SaiP, Insomnia is listed as one of the side effects of Loratadine. Niacin B3 in the form Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9, Cobalamine B12, Magnesium, and Thiamine B 1 are needed to produce the sleep hormone melatonin. Insomnia can also be caused by low Vitamin D and low Vitamin A. A strict gluten free diet can be low in essential...

      Earlier, you mentioned the possibility of adding in sweet potatoes. Have you tried that? Have you tried sourdough bread? Some people with celiac disease claim they can eat sourdough without a gluten reaction. The fermentation process alters the protein somewhat.

      I’m 70 years old and have RA for 25 years. I’d never had digestive issues or even heard of celiac until 2 months ago. 6 years ago I started having serious diarrhea, dropped what little weight I had, became very exhausted, developed rapid onset blood pressure and other symptoms.

      Getting rid of the belly bloat

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Karen Chakerian, We need more information, please.   What homeopathic remedies or medications are you taking now?  Do you still have the blood pressure and other symptoms?  What is included in your diet currently?  Dairy? Oats?  Processed gluten free foods?  Vegetarian?  Other food allergies?  Do you take vitamins?  When gluten is removed from the diet, the body stops making the anti-gluten antibodies that are usually measured in blood tests used to diagnose Celiac disease.  To measure the anti-gluten antibodies, you would have to consume 10 grams of gluten (4-6 slices of bread or equivalent) per day for a minimum of 2 weeks or longer.   A DNA test which looks for the most common genes for Celiac Disease may be a less invasive avenue to pursue.  Has your doctor checked you for nutritional deficiencies? Glad you're here!

      @SaiP, Insomnia is listed as one of the side effects of Loratadine.   Niacin B3 in the form Tryptophan, Pyridoxine B 6, Folate B 9, Cobalamine B12, Magnesium, and Thiamine B 1 are needed to produce the sleep hormone melatonin.  Insomnia can also be caused by low Vitamin D and low Vitamin A.   A strict gluten free diet can be low in essential  vitamins.   Gluten containing products are required to replace vitamins lost in processing and milling.  Gluten free processed foods are not required to have vitamins added.  White rice is not a good source of B vitamins.  Brown rice is little better.  Exposure to light (even grocery store lights) and heat (during transportation) can destroy B vitamins.   B vitamins are easily lost in urine and diarrhea because they are water soluble.  If you have had diarrhea longer than two weeks, you are probably low in B vitamins.  Fat based vitamins, like Vitamins D and A, can be low due to fat malabsorption in Celiac disease, too.   Damaged villa in Celiac Disease do not absorb B vitamins and fat based vitamins and minerals well.  Supplementing with essential nutrients while villi heal boosts the ability to absorb essential vitamins and minerals.  Vitamins are stored and utilized inside cells.  Blood levels are not accurate measurements of vitamin deficiencies.  You can have normal blood levels while having deficiencies inside cells.  The brain orders cells to release their stores so the brain and heart can keep functioning.  This results in normal blood levels, but vitamin deficits inside cells.   Your indulgence in a little bit of bread is providing some, but insufficient amounts, of vitamins needed to make sleep hormone melatonin while keeping your inflammation and histamine production high.   In addition to a B Complex, I took 1000 mg of tryptophan before bed to correct my insomnia caused by high histamine levels.  Correcting my Vitamin D level to between 75-100 nmol/ml helped as well.  Also Passion flower extract is helpful in falling asleep quickly.   Please stop eating gluten bread as this will keep your autoimmune response triggering and your antibody levels won't go down and your histamine levels will stay up as well.   Celiac is a marathon, not a sprint.  P.S. I wanted to reiterate that insomnia and weight loss are symptoms of Thiamine deficiency.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  Thiamine is water soluble and nontoxic even in high doses.  High doses are needed to correct thiamine deficiency. All mitochondria in cells utilize thiamine.  The World Health Organization says to take 500 - 1000 mg per day of thiamine and look for health improvement.  Diets that are high in carbohydrates like rice and gluten require more thiamine.  For every 1000 calories from carbohydrates, we need 500 mg more thiamine.  Thiamine is found in meat.  Few veggies contain thiamine. Can you rise from a squat without assistance?  This is the field test for thiamine deficiency used by WHO.  If you cannot rise easily from a squat you may be thiamine deficient.

      I’m 70 years old and have RA for 25 years. I’d never had digestive issues or even heard of celiac until 2 months ago.  6 years ago I started having serious diarrhea, dropped what little weight I had,  became very exhausted, developed rapid onset blood pressure and other symptoms. I went to the doctor for an unrelated matter and even with my records he told me they have ‘pills’ for all those things; which I turned down and sought to deal with this with homeopathic remedies.  Mid October 2024 my guts hurt terribly and started to swell. My massage therapist asked about celiac and I started to do research on it. It absolutely fits all the symptoms so I’ve been gluten free since 2 days before Thanksgiving but the huge gut persists. Thankfully the pain and cramps are gone. I look like a 90# pregnant skeleton.  I’m exhausted and looking for some encouragement from the tribe. I have good days and bad. I know living with an autoimmune disease sucks but this is even worse than the RA.
