I Got Sick On Bob's Red Mill gluten-free Apple Muffin Mix

I love their stuff! But I've eaten a ton of the muffins we made in the past week and I've been getting sicker and sicker. Am wondering if I have a sensitivity to one of the other ingredients or if others have had problems with Bob's?

I keep glutening myself (or whatever reaction this is) while trying So Hard not to. Getting grumpy.

Sorry to hear the muffins did not agree. My mom made some Bob's gluten-free bread for me at Christmas and I have not noticed a reaction. One question I have is what kind of oil did you use? The recipe my mom made called for vegetable oil but she substituted olive oil since some vege oils contain soy, another possible antigen...

Hmmm...my hubby used canola oil. I did not have an immediate reaction, but ate 2 batches (!) in about 3 days. I am trying to gain weight so I was being a piggy :). It didn't actually feel like typical glutening though (and I got a lot of heart palpitations which I don't think has occurred with gluten), so maybe it is a different allergen. Felt horrid though so I will have to investigate further. Thanks!

Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free products are processed in a dedicated facility. However, this facility also processes certified gluten-free oats. If you have a problem with certified gluten-free oats (some people are cross-reactive), then their products could be a problem for you.

It is quite possible it was something else that caused your problem.

I do have an issue with certified gluten-free oats so that must be it! Thank you!

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By trents · Posted

      @KRipple, thank you for the lab results from your husband's celiac disease blood antibody testing. The lab result you share would seem to be the tTG-IGA (Tissue Transglutaminase IGA) and the test result is in excess of 10x normal. This is significant as there is an increasing tendency for physicians to grant a celiac disease diagnosis on the basis of antibody testing alone when the scores on that particular test exceed 10x normal. This trend started in the UK during the COVID pandemic when there was tremendous pressure on the medical system over there and it has spread to the USA. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. All this to say that some doctors would grant a celiac disease diagnosis on your husband's bloodwork alone and not feel a need to go forward with an endoscopy with biopsy. This is something you and your husband might wish to take up with his physicians. In view of his many health issues it might be wise to avoid any further damage to his small bowel lining by the continuing consumption of gluten and also to allow healing of such to progress. The lining of the small bowel is the place where essentially all of our nutrition is absorbed. This is why celiac disease when it is not addressed with a gluten free diet for many years typically results in additional health problems that are tied to nutritional deficiencies. The millions and millions of tiny finger-like projections that make up the nutrient absorbing surface of the small bowel lining are worn down by the constant inflammation from gluten consumption. In celiac disease, the immune system has been tricked into labeling gluten as an invader. As these finger-like projections are worn down, the efficiency of nutrient absorption becomes more and more compromised. We call this villous atrophy.

      Thank you so much! And sorry for not responding sooner. I've been scouring the hospital records and can find nothing other than the following results (no lab info provided): Component Transglutaminase IgA   Normal Range: 0 - 15.0 U/mL >250.0 U/mL High   We live in Olympia, WA and I will be calling University of Washington Hospital - Roosevelt in Seattle first thing tomorrow. They seem to be the most knowledgeable about complex endocrine issues like APS 2 (and perhaps the dynamics of how APS 2 and Celiacs can affect each other). His diarrhea has not abated even without eating gluten, but that could be a presentation of either Celiac's or Addison's. So complicated. We don't have a date for endoscopy yet. I will let my husband know about resuming gluten.    Again, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with me!

      Hi Phosphone, did you ever figure out what elevated your DGP?  I am in the same boat.

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.
