nuts, more often than not, are processed on shared lines with wheat and such.

yep. Out of curiosity i looked on the back of a container that my family has of them. It had a "warning" lable that had the usual nuts, peanuts, and to my surprise wheat.

Not all nuts are processed where they process wheat.

Try one type of nut at a time. Maybe one or 2 bother you but not all. Not sure how big the bag you ate was but maybe it was too much. Even tho its healthy fat, it is fatty and could be hard to eat too many. Also, if salted, a lot of salt can be irritating.

Lots of things can bother out guts, not just gluten. :angry:

it was a 10 oz bag and i ate quite a bit....i figured it wasnt hurting while i was eating them....so i made a poor decision. On back of the bag it says, manufactured on equipment that processes peanut, other tree nuts.......maybe if i would have had a few, and not the entire bag :( thanks for all responses.....this is just so frustrating :(

Nut allergies are EXTREMELY common. It's most likely that you simply react to nuts. Eliminate them from your diet for a couple weeks; then get some 100% gluten free ones by either shelling them yourself or ordering from Open Original Shared Link to challenge with.

While my gut was in the early healing process, I couldn't handle nuts, even safe ones. My body just couldn't break them down-they're hard to digest. Lay off of them for a while and give your body some time to adjust. It honestly took me a good year, but I was pretty damaged. I was able to handle natural (pure!) nut butters pretty quickly though - almond and sunflower.

If you can find a safe source, try some smaller quantities - maybe softer nuts and seeds like raw sunflower seeds or cashews.

I usually buy mine from nuts online. com

      Family education

      By trents · Posted

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
