Salsa, Vinegar

Recommended Posts

Okay, salsa is not for me...I ate it and had a problem with it. It stated it was gluten free, brand: Spikes, all natural. I really think I'm having a problem with vinegar, which was in the ingredients. It doesnt even matter if it's distilled or not. I seem to be having a problem.

You may have an issue with grain based vinegar. A few here do. Or maybe you have not healed enough to handle the acid and spice.

Or nightshades...tomato, and peppers are in the nightshade family. It could be temporary.

I seem to have a problem with wishbone salad dressing (vinegar)....pickles and ketchup....has to be the vinegar. Hope this goes away, cause that would be a pain!

How long have you been gluten free?

dube Contributor

I started six months ago, however with lots of mistakes! Last month I glutened myself about five times...three of them at Applebee's (never again!)

If you are in the healing process, you may react to foods which do not contain gluten. You are reacting because of the pre-existing damage in your intestine, not to the particular food. Vinegar is highly acidic and may provoke a reaction. When the single word "vinegar" appears in an ingredient list in North America it is almost always distilled apple cider vinegar. Without question, it is distilled.

      Chronic mildly elevated liver enzymes was what eventually led to my celiac diagnosis but it took thirteen years to ferret that out and by that time I had developed osteopenia.  Yes, you've got a lot going on there in the way of autoimmune disorders and all of them we now know have a connection with celiac disease. It is true that autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. But it sounds like you are getting medical attention and keeping an eye on things.

      Thank you! Yes, I have celiac disease, lupus and Sjögrens. My ALT and AST have been chronically slightly elevated for a couple years and recently had an acute kidney injury (thinking it was from an antibiotic) with increased Lipase. So my primary doctor referred me to a kidney specialist. Other kidney labs are normal.

      My test results for TissueTransglutaminase IgA Antibody test came back normal. Like spot on normal. I do not have celiac! My problems are stemming from this H Pylori infection. I think I’ve had it for years. We’ll see if the doctor wants to do an endoscopy to see how extensive the damage is. Otherwise just a regimen of antibiotics will do the trick. The thanks for your guys’s help!

      Thank you both so much for taking the time to reply.    Cristiana - yes the rashes seemed to resolve when he came off gluten too. I haven’t seen those pictures before, thanks for pointing me to them. I’d say his rash isn’t like the more severe photos which are scabbed and very bumpy. His rash is more like lots and lots of patches of eczema than spots. No we have no celiac in the family to my knowledge, though my mum and sister both have autoimmune diseases and wheat sensitivity. I think you’re right and I’ll have to do another trial to confirm if it was the wheat. I’ve been hoping all day that I come down with the bug to rule out the wheat reaction! But the rest of the family are absolutely fine.    Trents - thank you for the info regarding the genes. That’s very interesting and I’d definitely consider doing that as a way to rule it out without putting him back on wheat. I also didn’t know celiacs were commonly intolerant to dairy and soy. I think you’re right and there is definitely enough factors to show something is going on. I think I’ll do a repeat trial of the wheat challenge and if he reacts again I shall look into the genetic testing.    Thank you both so much for your time. Becky

      Welcome to the forum, @Lburnett! Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease? I'm just trying to get a handle on the health context from which your question comes.
