Alcohol sweeteners are usually gluten-free, but they are a very common cause of IBS-like symptoms in many people. We have an article on this topic that will be published on Celiac.com this Saturday.

Is there a connection between histaminintolerance and celiac too?

Scott Adams Grand Master

There is some evidence to suggest a potential connection between histamine intolerance and celiac disease, although the relationship is not fully understood. Histamine intolerance occurs when there is an imbalance between histamine levels in the body and the body's ability to break down histamine. This can lead to symptoms such as headaches, digestive issues, skin rashes, and respiratory problems.

Celiac disease, on the other hand, is an autoimmune condition triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. While celiac disease primarily affects the digestive system, it can also cause systemic symptoms and affect other parts of the body.

Some researchers have suggested that individuals with celiac disease may be more prone to histamine intolerance due to disruptions in the gut microbiome and increased intestinal permeability (leaky gut) associated with celiac disease. Additionally, some foods that are high in histamine, such as aged cheeses and fermented foods, may also contain gluten, which could exacerbate symptoms in individuals with celiac disease.

However, more research is needed to fully understand the relationship between histamine intolerance and celiac disease, as well as the mechanisms underlying any potential connection.

      Absolutely no danger of overdosing on the stuff.  Thiamine is nontoxic, and safe.  I had gotten to 1000 mg of Thiamine HCl a day at one point.   Do continue taking the multivitamin with the other B vitamins.  You may want to add a magnesium supplement because magnesium and thiamine make enzymes together.  I like Magnesium l-Threonate (Neuro-Mag by life extension).  You may want to add a B Complex in addition to the multivitamin (take them at different times).  All the B vitamins are water soluble.   With Thiamine HCl, there's a "magic moment" about 500 mg, where sufficient thiamine can get into the cells by passive diffusion, and the difference is amazing.  In...

      Thanks so much for your replies! no danger of overdosing on the stuff? or having the other B levels going out of whack? I do take a multivitamin with all te other B vitamins at the RDA level. I have bought the HCL version of Thiamine. How long do you need to use the Thiamine? a short periode on high levels and then back to a maintenance dosage?

      Kudos for trying thiamine! On the ingredients label it should say if it's thiamine hydrochloride (thiamine HCl) or thiamine mononitrate or something else.   Thiamine mononitrate is shelf stable and not easily utilized in the body.   Yes, go ahead and try a whole 100 mg tablet.   Take with a meal.  Don't take close to bedtime.  Tomorrow take a 100 mg tablet with two meals. The next day take two 100mg tablets at one meal and 100 mg at second meal.  Keep increasing in this manner as long as you notice improvement.   When I first started with thiamine hydrochloride, I felt like the lights in my head were being turned on floor by floor like in a tall skyscraper.  It's just the brain working...

      Hi, My 3 year old was diagnosed a couple months ago. We went gluten free, very strict, and everything improved. Energy, no more meltdowns, bad rash is mostly gone. She's doing great. Except she complains every day of stomach pain. She describes it as squeezing. Any ideas from anyone?  We cut out oats and it didn't make any difference. She doesn't drink milk, though she has cheese. It doesn't seem to coincide with the cheese. She says it hurts when she wakes and then other random times during the day.  We are SO strict with her food. We don't eat out, out whole house is gluten-free. I make everything from scratch. She eats very healthy. She's not picky and we do tons of fruit...

      Ok so I couldn't find the thiamine you suggested but I was able to buy a bottle of 'standard' thiamine (100 mg). Should I just try half a tablet to see if I notice any difference? If it turns out it does have effect I can always buy the more expensive stuff. Or is that not a smart idea?
