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)

I think you will be okay!

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.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!
