think my entire life I was pooping once every few days. I recently started gluten free (and dairy free) diet, I'm in my 10 day now I think. Today I pooped 3 times. I never had it before. What does it mean? That my gut are healing? Or what?

Some people who are gluten sensitive get constipated, and some have diarrhea. In your case it is possible that it caused constipation, and now your gut is healing, and you're getting less constipated.

Is your stool well-formed? If the poop is not well-formed but loose it could be that you are not tolerating some ingredient in gluten-free recipes. Many gluten-free recipes, especially with processed gluten-free baked goods, have ingredients that celiacs don't tolerate will such as xanthan gum.

Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or has celiac disease been officially ruled out?

I mostly eat rice and chicken, some legumes, nuts and seeds, I'm avoiding processed foods, and my stool used to be painful and hard and now it's all soft and going out smooth.

Not officially. But a naturopath told me I have to avoid gluten according to tests he made and he knows me and my medical condition and he said I have to stop eating gluten and he thinks I'm sensitive or even have more severe form of gluten intolerance or allergy.

      No, Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     I take both of these and a B Complex.

      what Benfotiamine should I take as Life Extension contains both Ben and TTFD.
    • knitty kitty
      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD.   You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD.   You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate).  A magnesium glycinate is fine, too.  Doctor's Best is a good brand.  Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect.   Be sure to take the B Complex.  The Benfotiamine and TTFD will need the other B vitamins.

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks
