Hi.

 

Has anyone else suffered with low blood sugar as a symptom of Celiac disease? It was my main symptom and caused me no end of problems.

 

I'd be interested to know

 

Thanks

As a symptom? No. Not me.

 

However, i have noticed that i have more blood sugar issues now after going gluten free. If i don't eat within a certain time period, then i start getting the jitters, which goes into the shakes, and a general feeling of icky-ness. Once i eat something, it'll go away, but still, its not fun.

  • Hi. Thanks for the reply. Mine is the other way around. Since I was 16 I've had hypo's and 35 years later when my doctor and me accidently found out it was celiac, my hypo's got much much better. We accidently found out after I went to the doctor cos I had bad diahorrea after making and eating a sponge cake. I though it was the eggs, doc said "unlikely - try cutting out the wheat." Woah!!! What a difference. Much better and calmer and I then noticed my hypo's were a lot less and when I do get them they're not as bad.

I've had panic and anxiety since 16 and it's all been down to Celiac. Wasted my life though. Grrrrrr

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
