How do I stop the effects of being glutened after I've already been glutened? I want to stop the fatigue, achy muscles, tiredness, foggy brain right in their tracks after I've been accidentally glutened. How do I do that? Any vitamin? Supplement? Medication? Herb? Tea? Anyone know of anything that does this? Desperate for the answer.

I can say avoidance is the best method, eg eat at home to have better control of what is in your food. It took me awhile to do that but in my town we have a gluten free allergen free restaurant I <3. ! but after having to retool my diet getting rid of other grains I can't really go there. But as of once the problematic food item has been eaten, I go for kombucha for probiotics and avoid foods that could cross react.. I tend to eat lighter foods and grab as many zzzz's I can. plus peppermint tea helps chill me out. I wish there was a way to soften and shake it immediately, but alas nein, sadly.

I am determined to find an answer. I shall keep looking. I've contacted several organizations and will be getting in touch with Dr. Alessio Fasano's office on monday to see if they know of anything. I know about his medication for blocking the effects of zonulin but I'm not about to go on medication for the rest of my life. I need something that can be taken on an as-needed basis when accidental gluten exposure occures.

Try to accept the fact that you will not feel very good but DO NOT let this take over all your thoughts. Find something to keep you busy and try to live instead of letting all your fears take over.

I think you are searching for something that right now just does not exist. Time is the only thing. You can keep well hydrated, some use things like Dicyclomine ( helps with cramping), anti-nausea meds, pepto, immodium. There is no magical pill. Sorry.

zonulin is still in clinical trials, i think.  it's being tested as a preventative, anyway, so you would already have had to take it prior to getting glutened.

Looks like you are going to need a time machine.  But in the  meantime, until you get your own personal TARDUS try:

 

Pepto Bismol

Aspirin

Lots of water

Eat plenty of easy to digest foods and take digestive enzymes.

Some people think activated charcoal helps if it is taken right after the glutening.

Try some probiotics too.

Okra and marshmallow root might help a little.

Anything that coats or soothes the gut is worth a try I guess.

I think it helps to keep eating food, rather than stop eating.

Another maybe help is L. glutamine.

The best thing tho is a really nice big box of wine...  lasts for a little while.

Reporting back with nothing to report. So far, I have found a whole lot of nothing. This is unacceptable. I will continue looking.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
