Relief For Burning Mouth


Mamaburke

Recommended Posts

Mamaburke Newbie

Hi, I have recently noticed that my mouth and the back of my throat burn almost constantly. I've read that this is part of Hashimoto's and I was wondering if anyone else has this and if there are any remedies for the burning mouth? I have multiple food allergies/intolerance so my diet is very restricted. I've been on the GAPS diet for about two months, stuck at stage 3.

Also, I am still losing weight, down to 100lbs. Has anyone else lost a lot of weight without meaning to? In less than a year?

A burning tongue and throat are strong indications of iron and/or B vitamin deficiencies. It could be that the lining of your small intestine is still healing, and your restrictive diet, in conjunction with this inability to absorb nutrients well, is causing you to become nutritionally deficient in certain vitamins and minerals.

A good B vitamin, such as Coenzyme B-Complex Caps by Country Life might help you, but you should also consider taking 2,000-3,000 mcg of sublingual B-12 daily for a while. Sublingual Vitamin B12 is easy to find at stores and very reasonably priced. If this is the problem, you should see almost immediate relief of your symptoms.

I lived with throat burning for several months (turned out to be GERD being really bad). I normally tried to keep it coated with things such as milk or even when i didn't have that i chuged water just to keep it wet.

I lost 90 lbs. without trying (after being overweight for years ) due to malabsorption from celiac.

I also had a horrible burning tongue, mouth, throat, GI tract---made me cry every day--- and no doctor could explain it.

(I heard GERD, HORMONES, Sjrogen's, menopause, yeast infection, vit defs, "NO IDEA" , blah blah blah ) It burned right down to my rectum (sorry, it's the truth) and it did not stop until about 10-12 months after being gluten-free after my DX.

to my knowledge, it has nothing to do with Hashi's thyroiditis.

It's inflammation, possibly vitamin deficiencies and dehydration.

Drink water, have your vitamin levels checked and dose accordingly--as prescribed.

It should stop soon. Hang in there!

I had and still have on an occasion this: Open Original Shared Link , even on a gluten free diet. I'm taking Nexium for it.

      Welcome to the forum, @Rosalie P, I like tallow balm for my eczema.  Vintage Traditions is my favorite brand.   I find that taking Niacin B3 and Omega Threes also very helpful in healing the skin from the inside out.  Our skin reflects the state of health of our intestines.  One of the first signs I ate something that my intestines didn't like is eczema.  Milk and other dairy products definitely make my skin break out.   Have you been keeping a food journal?  Have you noticed a link between break outs or exacerbation and the food you eat?

      If you’re avoiding both gluten and oats, you’re right — a lot of “eczema” or “moisturizer with oat” products use oat-based ingredients (like colloidal oatmeal) that can be questionable for people with celiac or oat sensitivity unless the oats are certified gluten-free and tolerated. For truly gluten-free and oat-free moisturizers many people with sensitive skin use and recommend: Vanicream Moisturizing Cream — no fragrance, dyes, lanolin, or oats CeraVe Moisturizing Cream or Lotion — gentle, oat-free, widely tolerated Eucerin Advanced Repair Cream — rich but oat-free La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+ — good for eczema-prone skin and oat-free Aveeno Sensitivity Free (not Aveeno with oatmeal) — check the label carefully Always check ingredients for things like Avena sativa / oat extract, and if you’re extremely sensitive, call the manufacturer to confirm there’s no cross-contamination with oats or gluten. Patch test any new product on a small area first. Plenty of people with eczema and gluten/oat intolerance have found these work well without triggering reactions.

      I wonder what in RO water would cause major issues with your stomach? That seems strange, unless there is an issue with the system itself, like an installation issue, lack of changing the filter for a long time, etc.

      Isolated DGP-IgG elevation can be tricky. In children who are not IgA deficient and who repeatedly have negative tTG-IgA and normal biopsies, DGP-IgG alone is not very specific for celiac disease. It can sometimes be elevated due to other immune activity, transient infections, lab variability, or even non-celiac inflammatory conditions. The fact that it has risen despite a gluten-free diet and without symptoms or growth issues makes true active celiac less straightforward. The pediatric GI’s plan for a supervised gluten challenge followed by endoscopy is reasonable, as it’s the only way to clarify whether this is evolving celiac or a persistent false positive. You’re doing the right thing by approaching this methodically rather than assuming the antibody alone equals disease.

      Happy to answer, @cristiana, Too much of either Vitamin A or Vitamin E can have detrimental health effects, so doctors can be over cautious about their use.  However, both are important to health.  They act as antioxidants and help reduce inflammation.  Both Vitamins A and E have been shown to improve insomnia and body rhythm.    Yes, I'm familiar with "feel the fear and do it anyway".  I made some poor decisions based on that philosophy as well. Milk is high in B12, Vitamin A, Vitamin D, magnesium and calcium.  Vitamin A and Vitamin D are added to milk, especially to lower fat milks (skim milks), to replace the fat soluble vitamins lost in skimming (removal of naturally occurring fats and fat soluble vitamins found in whole milk).   All these vitamins and minerals have been shown to improve major depressive symptoms by improving brain functions in various ways. Vitamin A and D work in tandem to lower inflammatory cytokines and regulate tight junction connections in the intestines.  Remember the gut brain axis, if our digestive system is unwell, our brain health suffers, too.  Vitamins A and D both help regulate the microbiome.  Low calcium or low magnesium can affect brain health resulting in depression and disrupted sleep.  Low Vitamin A can result in night blindness, one of the first symptoms of a Vitamin A deficiency.   Yes, it's better to get these from dietary sources, however, if one has malabsorption issues as occurs in Celiac Disease (or with lactose intolerance or a reaction to casein) or consumes a poor diet (high in processed foods), then supplementation may be necessary in order to prevent permanent damage, and feel better sooner. It's very hard to pinpoint just one vitamin or mineral to improve our health because our bodies are a cauldron of interdependent chemical reactions involving many different vitamins and minerals and organs going on all the time.  But, yes, health improvement can be that fast, if our bodies receive a sufficient amount of missing vitamins or minerals needed for certain chemical reactions that keep our bodies functioning properly.     Interesting Reading: https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminE-Consumer/ Analysis of the concentration of vitamin E in erythrocytes of patients with celiac disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5209463/ Cerebellar syndrome in adult celiac disease with vitamin E deficiency https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1950453/   https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminA-Consumer/   Impacts of vitamin A deficiency on biological rhythms: Insights from the literature https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9718491/ Effect of Vitamin E Supplementation on Chronic Insomnia Disorder in Postmenopausal Women: A Prospective, Double-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36904186/ High prevalence of low dairy calcium intake and association with insomnia, anxiety, depression and musculoskeletal pain in university students from Jordan https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32830623/ Vitamin A and vitamin D regulate the microbial complexity, barrier function and the mucosal immune responses to insure intestinal homeostasis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6629036/ Dietary vitamin A modifies the gut microbiota and intestinal tissue transcriptome, impacting intestinal permeability and the release of inflammatory factors, thereby influencing Aβ pathology https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38606018/ Association between dietary calcium and depression among American adults: National health and nutrition examination survey https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9948022/ Dietary magnesium intake affects the association between dietary vitamin A and depression: a cross-sectional study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11996644/
