Reflux or intolerance


aya

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I would like to know how long after eating “forbidden” food do you  experience acid reflux. Is there any difference between gerd and intolerance in time leap between eating and experiencing reflux?

If I eat tomato and bread for example and get heartburn 5-10 hours later - is it more probable that I got it because of gerd related reflux caused by tomato or I should assume that this is because of gluten intolerance. 

 

Thank you,

Aya

I used to get this within an hour of eating gluten, not always, but off and on depending on what I ate--bagels were a trigger. If you symptoms were caused by gluten sensitivity, they should go away after a few weeks on a GFD. Are you still gluten-free?

      How long have you been strictly gluten free? Certainly, it would be good to look into vitamin and mineral deficiencies and supplementation. The B vitamins, magnesium and D3 are all very important to neurological health. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to reverse gluten-induced neurological damage damage if it has gone on for a long time.

      Thanks Trents I'm strict with my gluten-free diet now. I just don't feel any better. I'm going to get tested for vitamins and minerals to see if I need some supplements. For sure I got some damage that doctors call Menier's and the only way they treat it is with medicine that does damage my body more than it helps.

      Thank you Scott for your helpful response! Based on this, would you say someone who is on a gluten-free diet - but not strict about cross-contamination and occasional cheating - and tests negative for tTg-IgA while having normal total IgA is not likely to have celiac, even if they have been 'gluten-free' for years?

      That’s a really insightful observation about antibody testing and the gluten challenge! You’re absolutely right that antibody levels can remain elevated for months or even years after going gluten-free, especially if there’s ongoing cross-contamination or occasional slip-ups. The immune system doesn’t reset overnight—it can take time for antibodies like tTG-IgA to normalize, which is why many doctors recommend waiting at least 6–12 months of strict gluten-free eating before retesting. For someone who’s been gluten-free for less than two years or hasn’t been meticulous about avoiding cross-contact, there’s absolutely a chance they’d still test positive, since even small...

      Thank you for your response! I have considered starting a food diary in the past, I suppose this is as good a time as any to start.
