What Does A Glutening Feel Like ?

I thought I would try some dessert last night. You know ...friends around... just alittle bit ... Well - no instant pain - so thought I was OK and perhaps only Gluten Intolerent and healing ...

Today - 12 hours later have stomach pain ( mild ) and mild Diarrohea.

Have I been Glutened ? I mean. Does it get worse than this and do some of you folks actually eat something and know you will suffer later? Do the Glutenings vary according to how much you eat or type of meal. I have only slight pain so does that mean I only have a slight GI problem??? Haven't had a biopsy and too late now to try. Blood tests were OK.

A glutening happens immediately after the gluten containing food passes your lips!

The answer will vary according to who you are, how sick you are, how well you are, how much you ate... etc. But, as someone who just did something very dumb... I will tell you, I am suffering from severe dizziness, nausea, my stomach is KILLING me, I can barely stand up because I feel like I'm going to fall back over. I'm miserable, and I'm KICKING myself for eating that darn bun with my sandwich. And, I just know that feeling the way I do, it's only a matter of time before the "big D" sets in.

*Never* again.

it really varies by person. everyone's symptoms are different. that you noticed a change soon after this food is one good indicator, but only repeat exposure really tells each of us what it's like, and I can't recommend you try that. ;)

It was only a small amount of flour but am surprised by my mild reaction. Don't worry - not planning to try again ! Can still remember my severe reaction 2 months ago. But hopeful that perhaps some minor healing has happened. That I only have GI.

Georgie, by GI do you mean gluten intolerant?

Well if you are gluten intolerant, it would mean the same diet restrictions as a coeliac, in that you cannot eat gluten. It does not matter whether you have healed or not, you will still not be able to eat any food containing gluten. To do so could and will make you sick. So being gluten intolerant means being gluten free for life.

Georgie--Jayhawkmom is correct--the minute you swallow, you are glutened. The reaction time is different in everyone. AND, the longer you are gluten free, the worse the reaction, most will say. Being glutened always gives me diarrhea, severe cramping, and my tummy ends up feeling like one huge black and blue for more than a week. Now barley causes a slightly different reaction--I havent figured out why. My corn and soy intolerances cause severe constipation with cramping. I have never ate something knowing I would get sick, not since going gluten free. I have been glutened only a few times by accident. My daughter caught me with an ice cream cone at a family reunion once--before I got to the cone, she let out a yell, "Mom, you can't eat that!!!!" I don't know what happened to my mind, I honestly didn't even realize I had a cone. The same reunion, my sister had made some wonderful gluten-free zucchini muffins and her hubby brought her one, told her how wonderful they were and she took a bite--immediately realizing he had not gotten one of her muffins. At that point, she became a master spitter...amazingly, she was not glutened by the accident. Steve felt so bad, he was sure it was the muffin she had made. Her daughter brought some chocolates from Germany, Judy read the ingred and thought they were ok, forgetting that foreign country's do not have the same food standards as the US and she was very sick because of the maltodextrin in the candy. SOOOOOOOO, it happens to us all and most of us do pay dearly for accidents. Deb

      All I can say is this site is great!

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
