Ms Gluten Connection

I'm curious, how many people here are also diagnosed with MS? And, if so, did your symptoms improve with gluten elimination? What about when you accidentally get glutened - do the symptoms get worse?

I'm asking because right before I went gluten-free I had optic neuritis. I just got glutened ( about a week ago) and had back pain, really bad, despite treatment, since then. Also have had radiating arm pain and numbness.

Curious about others experiences.

I have a cousin with MS who is gluten-free because he finds it helps, although he does not test positive for celiac disease.

 

Gluten ataxia can be misdiagnosed as MS. Beyond that, I'm afraid that I don't know much.

Gluten and the top 8 allergens are the more complex protein chains for the body to break down and digest.  If the body is already stressed, these foods are possibly just adding more stress to the system.

 

It is not fully understood why a gluten free diet is helping many individuals with auto immune diseases (even some mental disorders).

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain
