Since I've gone gluten free, spicy food has given me some issues. This week I have had something spicy three times. each time, I have experienced nausea, headache, and acid reflux/heartburn. Spicy food has never done this to me before. I can normally eat some hot stuff. Anyone else have this problem? I know someone else that has, just wondering if we are the only ones out there.

I occasionally have mild problems with spicy foods if I over do it.

But it is definitely not uncommon, spicy foods can irritate an already out of wack stomach/small intestine. Just try to avoid them as much as possible and then slowly and gradually reintroduce them back into your diet.

Me too. I grew up on Mexican and Cajun food. So, hot was not a problem. But I have to be very careful anymore with plain old pepper. Anything more than a tad and I'm toast. I cannot tolerate chili powder at all. PP mentioned slowly introducing it back into your diet. I got my "leaky gut" healed and I have only been able to add the plain pepper back into foods but, still, only a tad. I wish you better luck.

Are any of you sensitive to nightshades? Peppers and paprika are nightshades.

I have the nightshade allergies. No peppers of any kind. I can't eat anything with black pepper in it for sure. I get D and/or vomiting within 15 minutes. Black pepper is something I knew I couldn't eat since I was 8 years old.

      Eye irritation 2.5 months into gluten free diet

      By pweidema · Posted

      Two things: 1. If you are using drops 3x a day you should be sure to use preservative free. The preservatives themselves can cause irritation. 2. If the problem does not resolve, you may want to have a rheumatologist check for Sjogren's. There appears to be a relationship between celiac and Sjogren's.

      Safe and Forbidden lists

      By Julie Max · Posted

      As far as I know, miso paste is gluten-free and should be added to the Safe List.  And, shouldn't soy sauce be on the Forbidden list?

      Test says no, but body says Yes?

      @PlanetJanet, Sorry to hear about your back pain.  I have three crushed vertebrae myself.  I found that a combination of Thiamine, Cobalamin and Pyridoxine (all water soluble B vitamins) work effectively for my back pain.  This combination really works without the side effects of prescription and over-the-counter pain meds.  I hope you will give them a try. Here are articles on these vitamins and pain relief...

      Canned tomato sauce, ricotta?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Here is the info from their website. If you don't trust them, you may find products that are labelled "gluten-free," but I don't see any reason to believe there is any gluten in them.
