Non Gi Gluten Reactions

Hi All,

I've been gluten-free for about four weeks now, but accidentally something wrong yesterday. My gut is fine (it really wasn't bothering me too much before gluten-free anyway), but I'm very tired and feel like I'm dragging myself through the day. Could there be any relationship between last nights dinner and the way I feel today? It seems weird that there would be.

Are you sleeping OK?

Are you sleeping OK?

I slept the same as usual last night.

Definitely! There's a lot of neurological symptoms associated with gluten. Some people have seizures, brain fog, sleepiness and so on. The theory is that partially digested gluten resembles opiates and gets into the blood supply via a "leaky gut".

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

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
