Since finding that i might have Celiac disease, but knowing for sure I have a gluten intolerence, it changes how you look at food completely. Celiac is a disease where you have a very high gluten intolerence, and what happands when you eat it is these little hairs in your intensetines that gather nutrients get flatend. So over time, if you were to eat it, you would die because your body would take in no nutrition.
Other symptoms include being severely bloated, horrible pain in your stomach, getting depressed, extreme fatigue, really painful uhh bathroom sessions.. and alot more awful things i was feeling for years.
When I was vegan I think i devolped a gluten problem cause its pretty much all i ate.
Gluten is in almost everything but expessally grains, fake meat, bread, which was what I ate alot when I was vegan.
So anyways, eating is not very fun anymore. I mean, i guess it is just getting used to it. I am someone who loves sauces and pasta and bread..
heres what I can't have :(
sour cream commercial chocolate milk and drinks, non-dairy creamers, all other cheese products, yogurt ( some kinds atleast)
meat patties; canned meat; sausages; cold cuts; bologna; hot dogs; stew; hamburger; chili; commercial omelets, soufflés, fondue; soy protein meat substitutes ( no more chikkn' nugguts :[ )
croquettes, breaded fish, chicken loaves made with bread or bread crumbs, breaded or floured meats, meatloaf, meatballs, pizza, ravioli, any meat or meat substitute, rye, barley, oats, gluten stabilizers
breads, buns, rolls, biscuits, muffins, crackers, and cereals containing wheat, wheat germ, oats, barley, rye, bran, graham flour, malt; kasha; bulgur; Melba toast; matzo; bread crumbs; pastry; pizza dough; regular noodles, spaghetti, macaroni, and other pasta; rusks; dumplings; zwieback; pretzels; prepared mixes for waffles and pancakes; bread stuffing or filling
gravy and cream sauces thickened with flour,packaged rice mixes, cornbread, ready-to-eat cereals containing malt flavoring, salad dressings, non-dairy creamers, mayonnaise, pie fillings, thickened or prepared fruit, fruit fillings
creamed or breaded vegetables; those prepared with wheat, rye, oats, barley, or gluten stabilizers
vegetables with sauces, commercially prepared vegetables and salads, canned baked beans, pickles, marinated vegetables, commercially seasoned vegetables
custards, puddings, ice cream, ices, sherbet, pie fillings, candies, chocolate, chewing gum, cocoa, potato chips, cakes, cookies, doughnuts, pastries, dumplings, ice cream cones, pies, prepared cake and cookie mixes, pretzels, bread pudding
cocoa mixes, root beer, chocolate drinks, nutritional supplements, beverage mixes
Postum™, Ovaltine™, malt-containing drinks, cocomalt, beer, ale, gin, whiskey, rye
soups thickened with wheat flour or gluten-containing grains; soup containing barley, pasta, or noodles
wheat starch; all flours containing wheat, oats, rye, malt, barley, or graham flour; all-purpose flour; white flour; wheat flour; bran; cracker meal; durham flour; wheat germ
synthetic pepper, brewer's yeast (unless prepared with a sugar molasses base), yeast extract (contains barley
So basically, i can eat...
Rice,
Corn,
All veggies,
all fruit,
meat but i only eat fish so thats kinda hard
and well thats about it.
So i can have thai food at least!
its weird though i've lost weight but i feel alot beter. Most the time. I hope I don't have Celiac, because than I really have to be careful. If you eat gluten when your not supposed to, you eventually get stomach cancer/tumors in your intesetines.
well yes that is my gluten free rant.
