Why worse when I loose weight or exercise?

I have been gluten free for quite a few years and corn free as well. My digestive issues have cleared up for the most part and the neurological issues I had with night terrors and what I call brain glitches have cleared. I am very familiar, now, with my glutening symptoms. Now, when glutened, I get blurry vision, insomnia, I get "stupid" and my stools get very mushy. Sometimes get muscle cramps or sharp joint pains.

What I am trying to understand is why I get this set of symptoms when I don't think I have been actively glutened. I think this happens when I exercise or when I lose weight. My feeling is that I am glutened from the inside - that some kind of release of stored toxins are causing the symptoms.  I know the answer to this is, it is not gluten because that is a protein but what is the answer. Are there other toxins associated with a lifetime of eating gluten that are stored? 

I use homeopathic remedies to help clear out the symptoms. One that seems to help is Apis which is a good remedy for clearing histamine. Another that works is the homeopathic Gluten remedy good for clearing out gluten. Maybe that can give a clue?

Thanks for thoughts...

Sandy

Homeopathic medicine usually is your offender in a small dose. The theory is your body will build immunities to it. Maybe that med is a gluten substance.

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.

      Thank you! This is very helpful. Quick followup: what is your recommendation re: gluten-free prepared foods (labeled gluten-free or certified gluten-free) during this time of being more strict about eating gluten-free? Is it necessary to eat only whole foods prepared at home, or is it safe to include prepared / packaged foods in her diet (I'm thinking particularly of snack foods)?

      Is blending same as cold press? Is there any juice recipe you tried that you feel helped like the ginger turmeric? Is there a brand turmeric powder you used etc? I used Aloe vera years ago but the taste is hard to get down. What are your go to juices you made?
