Onions a Big NO NO

Post by kitty16 »

Hi

I cannot believe it took me so long to make this connection. Night before last I made a family favorite (Italian) zucchini, eggs and ONION. I only had a small amount (I was afraid of the zucchini). This resulted in a very bad day yesterday with severe D.

OMG this so explains why certain soups cause a reaction, also why I can eat a hamburger at my local diner but when I was down in florida and ordered one at a restaurant I had a reaction. I even commented on how seasoned it was.

Can anyone tell me if this is a clue to any other things to avoid is there anything in the same family as onions? Knowledge is power on this road to remission.

Thanks all
Hugs,
K

Hi Kitty,

Quite a few of us have problems with onions while we are recovering. The good news is that after we heal, we can usually add them back into our diet. (At least I can tolerate them now, even though I couldn't back when I was still recovering). Along with onions, some of us have problems with garlic, also.

Hugs,
Tex

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Kitty I fall into the group Tex mentioned that when I am flaring up, forget about onion. Now though I can have them in moderation. I Usally just use a small amount of dried onions or onion powder in cooking.
