Ugh I Feel Glutened Again


Lister

Recommended Posts

Lister Rising Star

Ok so i just had my lunch/dinner since its 4pm not sure if i should swing another meal later. But ugh i feel so sick like bloated and i already feel like i have to use the restroom and im getting like a sea sick feeling (or another way to discribe it is when your coming up on mushrooms*did these not by choice about 3 months ago my friends put a hole bunch in my orange juice and i never noticed until it was to late* maybe when i think im getting glutend im not maybe its ibs i dont know but this is how i discribe beeing glutened and all i ate was

pork,lettece,carrots,and the crumbs from my lumbarg rice chips- none of these things should even have cc problems. the pork was hormel always tender pork- its on there safe list and i have never had cc issues with the rice chips- i ate them last night just fine, but ugh i feel so sick. So my question is am i acually glutened by on of those things or this hole time when i thought i keep getting glutened its just how my body reacts to food for now?? gah i dont wanna use the restroom since i just ate im afraid it will be D and it will be what i ate :( im trying to get some nutriants in my body

You could be having problems with other foods...not just gluten. The pork is probably *highly* processed and not good for anyone with bad digestive symptoms. That would be my guess anyways. Also did you drink anything?

gatorade and water only for me. and the pork shouldnt be prossessed i meen its a slab of meat?

Lots of meat gets processed. I have problems with regular meat I have to buy the organic stuff from the butcher at Whole Foods. I dont know what could be causing your symptoms but I know if I had eaten that pork and drank gatorade I'd probably be hallucinating right now.

Lister, I've read some of your posts but i can't remember how long you've been on the diet. if it's a fairly recent thing, your system may just not be up to snuff yet. i remember in the couple of months following diagnosis, i just didn't feel well at times (gluten symptoms), and most times, if not all, there was no way at all that i had ingested gluten. i chalked it up to my system's taking time to heal and just tried to eat as simply as possible to make sure. i'm sorry you're feeling bad. :(

Yes, is it only weeks that you're on this diet? It took my son months until he felt better. Also, pork always makes me sick and naseous. Can you stick to bland type foods while your gut is recovering?

Lister - you have mentioned that you had worms in your stools... Perhaps there is a larger problem at hand here. Have you spoken to your GI about issues other than potential celiac? In addition, keep in mind it might take awhile to heal. For nine months or so, all I could consume was veggies and nut butter, basically. Sometimes you need to simplify it as best as you can. And you're working with food daily at work - that could be a huge problem.

Lister,

I've been reading your posts and I can identify with a lot of your symptoms. I had a lot of stomach pain and bloating in the beginning. Along with gluten intolerance I also suffer from IBS. I had no damage to my villi so the doctor suggested more fiber. He recommended Citracel tabs 2 in the morning (they are gluten-free). After my colonoscopy he told me that I have a lot of gas and fiber would make it feel better. It is good for both constipation and diarrhea. I also follow an IBS type diet, sort of. By that I mean I never start a meal with anything but soluble foods, such as banana, mashed potatoes, rice, etc. If you start your day with a soluble food the rest of the day will go smoothly. I am only telling you this because it has helped me. Hope you feel better soon. Keep up the gluten free diet!!

maybe i was wrong about getten glutened also. The symptoms went away after like 20 minutes/30 minutes besides for the head fog, got worse really but i did also smoke some of my medicine so now i cant even tell if im having brain fog or if its just my medicine in my system, i dont know thow its been about 2 hours since i smoked and it usaly only takes me 30-45 to sober up so maybe it is brain fog, but my sides really not bugging me/ well i guess slightly but its not like persistant

"start a meal with anything but soluble foods, such as banana, mashed potatoes, rice, etc." hmm i need to try that, in the morning around 6 my stomic starts to go crazy around 7 i eat a banana every morning and the pains go away for about 3 hours so that makes sense, i just need to start eating something like that before i eat my main course ? hmm ok so i will eat the rice first then the meat and see what happens

perhaps your drugs are cross contaminated.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
