Whiter Teeth?


Jestgar

My friend went gluten-free in May. A couple weeks ago her son asked if she had changed toothpaste because her teeth look so much whiter.

Mine had been yellowish but I bleached them before changing diet so I can't tell.

I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

I don't think mine are any whiter, but I wouldn't doubt that it's true. gluten-free seems to fix a lot of problems. And if the person had a lot of heartburn or acid reflux associated with gluten, that could definitely affect the teeth.

My teeth didn't whiten when I went gluten free, but they DID start responding to the whitening mouthwash that I use. I never was able to whiten my teeth prior to going gluten free because it just wouldn't work, it would make them look dirty. Now, my teeth are much whiter than ever before thanks to the mouthwash. I've also noticed that my teeth feel stronger, like I can eat an apple now. I could never do that before, it just hurt too much.

I've noticed that my lips are getting redder (increased circulation? more B vitamins?), so that might have an effect on how white my teeth look.

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
