Glutened? How To Handle?

I accidentally started eating a chip that was not gluten free. Realized the mistake and spit it out before I swallowed. Afterwards I brushed my teeth, flossed and rinsed several times. Can I be glutened even though I did not swallow the food? Having a very tough time recently due to antibiotic usage and some accidental cross contamination issues during holiday travel and am kicking myself for this happening in my own home!

This is the first time I have consumed an actual gluten item in two years. Do charcoal tablets work? Anything else I can do to help? (I am off probiotics for the time being due to an upcoming SiBO breath test so cannot do that)

No!!!! Charcoal Tablets....please.  You may be fine but if you did ingest a bit it is an autoimmune reaction and you can't stop that.  Charcoal will absorb everything....including nutrients, vitamins, mediations, fluids.   Chances are you will be fine.

I made a mistake and grabbed someone's beer on NYE (thinking it was my bottle of gluten-free hard cider).  I induced vomitting but I started hurting yesterday and am really sick today.  Never heard of charcol tablets. gluten-free Lover- did you say yes charcoal or no- never take charcoal.  It is too late for me now obviously but for future refrence.

No charcoal. It is given for poisoning and drug overdoes depending on what was ingested. it is not going to stop the autoimmune process though.

NO to charcoal tablets.  It doesn't to any good and will suck any nutrients right out of your body and cause constipation.  Plus, it's really nasty when it comes out the other end.  Activated Charcoal is typically used for Overdose cases and Toxic ingestion.  Celiac is Autoimmune and the charcoal will have no effect.

 

Good luck :)

Like all else said nope to charcoal, it will strip all nutrients and gut flora that is good with bad. Hoping all turns out good on your end.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      By amantelchi · Posted

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      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/
