Anyone Salt Sensitive?

Ive got a question. In the last several months I have noticed that if I have any salt at all I will start having a stomach ache and I start getting a slight headache and everything tastes like i've drowned it in salt even when I haven't put any in it. I've had my mother, my son, other family members check and they all say it tastes fine to them. It's getting like I can't have salt at all. I changed over to Sea salt a year and a half ago. I thought it might be the Sea salt and tried regular iodine salt and the same thing happens.

What could this be a sign of?

Just wondering if anybody had any ideas on what might be happening?

I don't know for sure but what happens to me is....

The less salt I eat...the more I can taste salt. I eliminated it due to DH and now I can only toelrate a little salt...and lunchmeat or anything processed tastes WAAY too salty. The tastebuds get more sensitive without it I guess.

Same thing happened with sugar. The less sugar I ate, the less I could tolerate sugar. Ate whole food for a while then had a Snickers and it was WAAY to SWEET!

I don't know of any other explanation but increased sensitivity of the taste buds.

It will be interesting to see what others think.

      Night time migranes

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In people with celiac disease, gluten can trigger migraine headaches, and we have a category of research summaries on this topic: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Barilla Gluten Free Pasta makes me sick

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They are made in a dedicated gluten-free facility, but anything is possible. It looks like their product contains Xanthan Gum, is it possible you have issues with Xanthan Gum?  https://www.maninis.com/products/4-cheese-tortelloni/ This article might be helpful:

      Guidance on next steps after the lab tests

      By trents · Posted

      ABP2025, there are no definitive diagnostic tests for NCGS. It is arrived at by first ruling out celiac disease despite continuing symptoms from gluten ingestion.

      So keep eating gluten daily, lots of it, until all celiac disease screening is completed. A negative biopsy would not rule out NCGS. Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      By susan connolly · Posted

      Hi  I just had the same problem with Maninis Am gluten-free so I am very careful. It was delicious but big tummy ache and swelling.  I was soooo careful.  Nothing different but the tortellini.  Maybe cross contamination of some kind ?.  Best  Susan
