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.

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.

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!

      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!
