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.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Yes this is very frustrating for me ... not sure what to think.  Feels like I'm having reactions to a lot of things  Now applesauce?? I don't understand 😞
