Someone Drinking Barley Beer Talking And Some Of It Falling In My Mouth

I instantly felt like I reverted to how when I ate gluten (been gluten free for about a week [finding thing That contain gluten and removing it from my diet e.g. protein shakes toothpaste] is that common and how quick will it be till I return back to gluten free sense of mind?

First, the amount of gluten in a whole beer made with barley is usually pretty small. I am assuming you mean someone spit? I doubt that would bother you.

As for when you will feel like eating gluten free again? That I couldn't say. I don't think a couple of drops of beer should make you not want to be gluten free.

Why are you gluten free? Do you have Celiac?.

FallenLegacy Newbie

Yeah someone's spit and I've changed to a gluten free diet about a week ago and until the spit entered my mouth my night was going fine. I'm still going gluten free but I wondered how long it would take for symptoms caused by gluten to go away

And no I'm not a celiac but have decided to go gluten free to improve my mental health and as such is changing my physical. Technically I'm speaking to the most sane people alive

A person with celiac disease can take up to one to three years for intestinal healing -- less perhaps, if you are a child.

Perhaps you were not glutened -- just freaked out due to someone's spit getting into you!

There is a steep learning curve to going gluten free. Chances are you probably have had gluten exposure eating something else. If you suspect celiac disease, the best thing would be to get tested.

FallenLegacy Newbie

Perhaps but it wasn't until the person who had a barley beer in his hand who'd just drank it got his spit in my mouth that I experienced behaviour I experienced before going gluten free (not a celiac but I now for a certainty know I have gluten sensitivity, I used to chug gluten free food down like it was nothing every day and I've just been free for about a week). But yeah maybe I mentally overreacted a bit. Thanks!

I mean, I am a germaphobe and would probably react more than the average person, but if it wasn't someone like my husband, I would TOTALLY flip out if someone got their spit in my mouth. LOL.  So, ya know, I would mentally overreact for sure.  I would probably make myself sick thinking about what pathogens that person had in their mouth that I was going to get sick from.  So don't feel alone there, sometimes you can never tell what exactly makes you feel poorly, either.

correcting myself, I used to chug food containing gluten* daily (pretty much ate pasta every day since the september that passed along witth fast food etc being a student so i've only recently realised my gluten sensitivity)

If you're not 100% gluten free, you're consuming gluten daily.  Pasta and fast food are only the tip of the iceberg.

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.

      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
