Vinegar 'intolerence'?

I get sick after eating anything with vinegar in it, but I don't know why! Does anyone have something like this? Can you be allergic/intolerent to vinegar?

Yes, but it's very possible that vinegar is just too acidic for you at this time.

Sorry I left this out, I also react to foods that are cooked in any kind of wine too.

perhaps it's sulfites? Open Original Shared Link

I can only tolerate a small amount of vinegar at a time--like the amount in a salad dressing. For me, I think it's the acidity of it--coffee affects me the same way.

Since the wine affects you the same way, it could be a sulfite issue too. If this cropped up soon afer going gluten-free, you may just need to heal a bit.

I've been gluten-free for a year now but thanks. I'll check out sulfites.

Although I dont have problems with vinegar, it seems to be more and more common with visitors to Hawaii. Since I work with a lot of hotel chefs, we've come up with some vinegar substitutes based on sour fruit like bilimbi and green starfruit juice as well as a number of others. Some of us think that it might be the acid as well as or instead of sulfites.

Good luck finding out, and please let us know when you do

vinegar has bothered me for years, long before becoming celiac. Not only does it affect my stomach, but my tongue swells up real big.

I also have an intolerance to sulfites, which makes vinegars and wines very hard. I have found that apple cider vinegar has the lowest sulfites. I also, as Ken suggests, use lime very often. So I make cucumber salad with lime juice, red onion, salt and pepper. But that won't help if it is the acidity.

The sulfite intolerance will make your mouth and joints swell-- if it is bad enough it can kill you. It can also give you photosensitivity, as well as a nice bright red rash. Some people experience nausea and intestinal upset as well.

One way to figure it out is to see if dried fruits, dehydrated potatoes and other high-in-sulfite foods get you too. The link tarnalberry gave you has a list of sulfite-containing foods.

Good luck figuring it out!

      Hello, I hope I am posting this in the correct space, so apologies if not! After my last two endoscopies (2019 and 2024), I received the following comment in my report: Duodenal biopsy: Duodenal mucosa with mild intra-epithelial lymphocytosis in the presence of normal villous architecture. Comment: Findings are non-specific. They can be seen in coeliac disease, peptic or medication induced injury and H.pylori infection among others. Correlation with clinical findings and results of serological studies is recommended. I didn't have an ulcer and crohns disease was not mentioned to me. For the past few years I have had on and off digestive issues (gas, mild diarrhea, lower abdominal bloating). Just recently I went to my GP and he stated it was probably all related to IBS, however, I forgot to mention this statement from my endoscopy report. Does this sound like it is pointing towards celiacs? I am a 52 year old male. Any advice would be awesome. Thank you

      My kids take Whole Earth & Sea Kid’s Multivitamin as per our naturopath’s recommendation. They’re chewable but can be crushed and added to juice or food. No gums or citric acid. GMO free and gluten free too.

      It has been a while and I would like to post an update. The hallucinations are completely gone. Thanks to one bottle of B1 as benfotiamine and one of B3 as niacin, both taken together. I will buy more. The other symptoms are still being treated. Now I can already affirm that the symptoms are part of Borderline Personality Disorder. Yet I do have hopes that we will achieve the remission of BPD symptoms over the next couple of years. I think her issues come from this chain of events: Nutritional deficiencies at birth, due to being twin and having low birth weight. Low levels of Omega-3 during pregnancy and first years resulting in weak HPA axis development (predisposition for BPD). Consumption of gluten before age of 2 leading to predisposition for gluten sensitivity as adult Excessive consumption of gluten and sugar as an adult, leading to dysregulation of microbiome. Two severe gut infections due to lack of healthy bacteria, followed by hospitalization and use of antibiotics Poor diet after using antibiotics, worsening even more the gut health and leading to anorexia nervosa. Worsening of gluten sensitivity, then resulting in bouts of anxiety and depression, especially if added with sugar. Different forms of therapy haven't shown effectiveness yet, but I think it's because the issues must be treated with nutrients first, so we are taking that more seriously now and focusing on nutrients that are especially easy to digest and absorb. She still has intense gluten sensitivity, but I have hopes that this can go away after the body is completely re-nourished with the missing nutrients and then gets a few years to recover. Notes: The hallucinations begun after we tried Ayahuasca low dosage. I guess it was the result of a bad combination: "DR1 genes + B1 deficiency + Ayahuasca". I'd guess that would not have happened if it wasn't for the vitamin deficiencies. She has been fully in non-gluten diet, except for accidents that happen sometimes due to her food compulsion. I have been giving more importance to Omega-3, which is very effective in emotional regulation for BPD. Recently bought special products from Omnilife which use special "micelles" to promote quick absorption close to 100% rate. - "Micelles are tiny, spherical particles formed when amphiphilic molecules, like those in soap, aggregate in a liquid, typically water." Currently buying special whey protein which is hydrolyzed (easy to digest). I think we have underestimated the importance of proteins, which is not usually refereed as part of mental health treatment. She is pregnant again, but doing well. 🙂 Thanks for all of the help!

      Hi, My six year old has been complaining of tingling in the legs off late. This used to be pretty common thing with her pre-diagnosis and a couple of weeks after the diagnosis as well. And now it is back again. I am not sure if it's a glutening symptom, or she could be deficient in something. I got her Pure Encapsulations' multivitamin capsule, which she is ok taking, but she began reacting to cellulose in the capsule. I don't know if I can just break the capsule and she could drink it in a smoothie. I haven't tried that yet, so do not know whether it'll be palatable to her.  If any of you know of a CGF multivitamin that do not contain any gums and are preferably free of citric acid, I'd greatly appreciate. Thank you.

      It wasnt really eye catching, but they were small stains which looked like dried out liquid. I dont know if it was normal or shouldve been just completely clean. But if someone didnt pay attention, it wouldnt be noticeable.
