Loose stools after 2 months of gluten free diet

[Charlia Daisey]

My 16 year old has been gluten-free for 2 months, has gained back 3/4 of the weight she lost and looks so much healthier. She says she has no more rumbling or stomach grumbling, she had a light spotty period after not having any for 8 months and is acting like her old self, again. Only thing concerning to me is her stools have become looser, not diarrhea, only once a day, but they seem broken down… Is thus a detox happening? Her regular pediatrician thinks it is just her eating different foods, more fruits and vegetables than before which have fiber which she did not eat much of before going gluten-free. Should I be worrying? I hate to take away other food groups so soon… I know this will not cause further harm to her small intestine , but will it slow healing?

2 months is nothing..  come back after a year.

It's always good to re-examine her diet just to be sure that she's not getting any hidden gluten, for example does she eat out at restaurants? This is a common source of contamination. Also, is she getting enough fiber and starches in her diet? Too like of either can cause this issue.
