Numb Tongue?


Natlay

Recommended Posts

Natlay Apprentice

So, I've figured out that gluten, dairy, corn and soy are off limits for me and have been doing very well and have gotten really good at finding all the hidden things on labels. But now this week the front half of my tongue feels numb...like I burned it, but I know it's not burned. The only things I have eaten differently than usual is I made a cookie mix using applesauce and eggs. Anyone have any ideas what this could be?

All I can say is, I have all the same intolerances. If I am to understand that is a picture of you, I'm much older than you, but the tongue, throat thing in many different manifestations is quite common in reaction to ????? I think, for me, hormones play a role. (I am very near to menopausal age) I would stick to plain, whole foods- eat very simply, without any condiments or additions and see what happens as you slowly add foods back in. It just seems our bodies may have a bunch of "weird things" going on as we try to find out what works for each of us! Good luck!

I get a burning tongue and esophagus from tapioca flour which is common in gluten-free baked goods.

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

      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.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
