Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Re: Having problems with gluten, corn, wheat, tomato, chile, beef, pork

Whole Wheat, beef, and pork are IBS triggers, so you definitely need to stay away from them!

Blueberries are insoluble fiber, so you need to mix maybe a banana or something of that nature with your smoothie. Maybe even some acacia fiber in the smoothie.

Some people have a hard time with soy. I can't handle soy milk. I get bloated, gassy, and have colonic spasms. It's very hard for me to digest as well. You might want to switch to rice or almond milk for a dairy substitute. I love the rice milk. It is alot thinner than soy and is kinda sweet. IMO it is very palatable.

Do you know for sure you have a gluten intolerance? that is something you need to see the dr. about, and get real answers on that.

Does oatmeal have gluten?

I eat oatmeal with acacia every morning with a glass of rice milk and a cup of blueberries/strawberries/blackberries/raspberries (whatever is available) in my oatmeal.

There are also many gluten free food stuffs to eat. I have a rice pasta that is GF and it is great! DeBoles makes it. You can eat the packaged salmon/tuna with some rice or rice pasta. Applesauce, bananas, carrots, soy yogurt (one thing I can tolerate besides soy milk) Mango, potatoes, sweet potatoes, dried fruits are excellent source of IF. www.naturespath.com has a wonderful variety of gluten free cereals and products that are very good and most of them are safe foods. I especially like the gorilla munch and the leaping lemurs and animal crackers.

I hope that helps.
