Hi! Is anyone else having a problem w/ canker sores? :blink: I don't know if it's realated to celiac disease but they have been pretty constant in the past months= especially since my diagnosis. I'm using over the counter stuff but want to consult my dentist for stronger meds. I thought I'd throw the quesiton out to all of you first. Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I get canker sores after eating gluten, or any other food that I'm intolerant to. They only last 2 or 3 days and don't require any meds.

I get them too now when glutened. I had them frequently before going gluten-free. I never took anything for them--just let them run their course.

I also get them when I drink a lot of Grape Juice.

Get LYSINE. Take it daily. Also, Mesquite flour has lysine in it. I add it to a variety of my foods. My child was prone to them. He's only had one this year since I started him on Lysine!!!!!!!!

this is a problem for me too. What is Lysine and where can I get it from? I've got loads of sores in my mouth at the moment so need to get this sorted. Does anyone take any particular vitamin supplements to deal with this?

A doctor told me that canker sores are cause by stomach acid and I do find that I get them when my tummy has been upset. Deb

Yes, Deb, so do I. I don't get them in conjunction with a cold or other things, only with a stomach problem.

I get them if I'm brushing my teeth too fast and slip and catch my gum or lip. Without fail, a couple days later I get a canker sore in that spot. I try to use it as inspiration to brush slower...

I also feel like I'm more prone to them when I'm eating too much sugar, but that could be my imagination.

They are really annoying -- usually it take about a week for them to go away completely. I've never taken meds for them.

I used to get canker sores ALL the time, but they're not as frequent now that I'm gluten free. (Except when I bite myself like an idiot!)

I've never taken medicine for them, but hurricane gel numbs them really well so you can at least eat. You can find that with the baby dental stuff.

Good luck! People who don't get them have no idea how bad it hurts to even talk when you have them!

Canker sores can be caused by magnesium defficiency (it also causes a lot of other things that celiac causes! Any wonder since absorption is such a big problem!) To find out how much you need, get a good magnesium (google Magnesium KAL - it's cheap), then take 200 mg every hour until you reach diarrhea. Then back down from that amount and that's how much you need. You might need to jot down the hours and the number of pills. I went all the way to 4000 mg's before I got diarrhea (big constipation problems before this). I now take about 2000 - 2400 a day. Feel lots better in a lot of ways. You can also cure migraines with mag. When you get a migraine take 200 mg every hour until the migraine goes away!!!

On the topic of mouth sores, HAs anyone gotten blood blisters on there tongue or in there mouth? I had blood blisters on my tongue and in the inside of my mouth. They really hurt. I have sores on my tongue, that have turned into cuts. Anyone have the same problem?

yes, I do. I get mouth ulcers and sores on my tongue at the same time. I also get sores on my tonsils at the same time. I think mine might be caused by tomatoes and maybe grapes. The state of the tongue generally is dictated by a poor digestive system.

      Cricket Flour Makes Really Good Gluten-Free Bread

      Your concern about certified gluten-free cricket powder is completely valid, as cross-contamination in both feedstock and processing is a real issue. Currently, the availability of certified gluten-free options is limited, but brands like Chapul and Entomo Farms, which I believe have offered products processed in dedicated facilities and labeled gluten-free...

Im positive for HLA-DQ2 which is first celiac patient per Iran and Turkey. Here in the States especially in Cali its why do you feel that way? Why do you think your celiac? Your not eating gluten so its something else.Medical caused me depression. I thought I was safe with my former pcp for 25 years considering i thought everything I went through and going through will be available when I get fired again for health. Health not write-ups my health always come back when you're better.Im not and being tossed away at no fault to my own other than shitty genes.I was denied disability because person said he didn't know how to classify me! I said Im celiac, i have ibs, hernia, sciatica, high blood pressure, in constant pain have skin and eye issues and menopause intensified everything. With that my celiac nightmare began to reprove my disregarded disease to a bunch of clowns who think they are my careteam when they said I didn't have...I feel Im still breathing so I can fight this so no body else has to deal with this nightmare. Starting over with " new care team" and waisting more time on why I think I am when diagnosed in 1994 before food eliminated from my diet. P.s everything i went through I did write to medical board, so pretty sure I will continue to have a hard time.

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
