Just had 16 glutan free pancakes as an experiment

Ha Ha!

I haven't had any in two years, and those had gluten and I felt not so good after.

G/F Betty Crocker pancakes (tasty, yes) with syrup is still a carb and sugar nightmare which I figure might bring out some candida bloating if I still have candida, based on past experiences. So far it didnt.

After what seemed like a weeks long of food poisoning symptoms last month, its still hard to control bloating/belching after meals. Thought maybe gut candida, even though candida antibodies were fine. Pretty certain thats not it now.

Tried more probiotics, digestive enzymes, HCl after meat. Seems like veggies and meat (meals) still make me uncomfortable while carbs/sugars dont.

This is weird.

...and did you say 16?

Girlie-

Yes. 16 pancakes. Not hungry anymore.

I used almond milk, no real milk for me a few years now. You can cook with it to, its great.

WOW. 16?! I hope they were bite sized lolz.

I also get almond milk...it's great! the vanilla flavored taste good.

smiling! 16 pancakes - did you put some ghee on them?

Dang I want some cakes now lol
Oh oh dude.... in the morning... I'm making waffles(insert donkeys voice aka Eddie Murphy from shrek) lol

blueberrymuffin - PPi's, yea, not so good. Gastritis is confusing. Its a catch all term for inflamed stomach or intestines? Or both? Maybe thats what I have going on after my food poisoning incident last month, taking to long to normalize my gut.


Nothin fancy for the pancakes. Just Betty Crocker glutan free batter mix in a box. Followed the simple instructions on back, used almond milk in place of real milk.

Glutan cakes with cow milk would not go well with me- the reason I ditched pancakes two years ago. The above version agrees with my gut much better.

I haven't read all the posts, but wanted to add in here because I note the same things sometimes. Meats and veggies are harder to break down and process for the body, so it makes sense that you are having a harder time with those.

Some basic questions cross my mind, like what dose of digestive enzymes have you used? I have to use slightly higher doses than are 'recommended' in order to get the relief/help I nee, but because I no longer have a gall bladder, I also need to take bile salts, or I have issues.

My issues are partly caused by the muscles in the intestinal tract not moving like they should - could this be your issue as well? I'm assuming for me that it's demyelination of the vagus nerve, but since I have no doctors that are willing to take me as a patient, of course it's only my assumptions after a lot trial and error and researching (because this stuff drives me nuts!).

Well, know I'm following what's going on with you!! LOL! I'm not sure I have my issues figured out either, so I'm still just struggling along. I sure hope that you continue to do as you have and let us know what you find out - it could be the key to what's going on with me or others as well!

I need to bookmark this thread. My brain is too cold at the moment to absorb it, but pancakes or waffles have been front in center in my mind since Thursday when I acquired a 5 lb bag (for free) of frozen blueberries reminiscent of the Canadian size!

Blueberries aren't available wild here in Missouri. I don't even know if they're cultivated much here.

These things are huge. When I was growing up in Michigan we had lots of wild blueberries, but sometimes you would here them designated "Wild Canadian Blueberries".

These don't have the taste of being wild, they do taste cultivated, but they are very much larger than what I normally see for sale around here, so I immediately thought the could only come from an area that has an extended Blueberry season.

The funny thing about Blueberry designations of "lowbush" or "highbush", is I thought the Michigan blueberries were of a good size, though the bushes were large and tall, not some puny little thing you had to bend over and pick from.


I made pancakes tonight with that coconut flour I mistakenly bought, and I through in some of the ground flax seed I also mistakenly bought. I thought there recipe only requiring 1/2 cup of the coconut flour too skimpy for two people so I threw in an additional half a cup of Krusteaz blueberry pancake mix. And I made a strawberry blueberry compote for the top, with honey and water. I gave myself 2 and was only able to eat one - about the size of a coffee cup saucer. 1/2 C coconut flour and 1/2 C Krusteaz mix made 6 pancakes

I admire anyone that could put away 16.
