I bought some Udo's Choice Enzyme Blend. I've taken 2 today and didn't read the ingredients carefully enough. Not sure how I missed it, but it has barley malt in it :( So I have spent most of the day in bed today. I'm glad it's Saturday at least. But, at the same time, I hate wasting my whole weekend recovering from this mistake. Is there any way to get it out of my system quicker? Just curious if any of you had any tricks for this or if I just have to wait it out as usual. More proof that I really do have an issue with gluten.

I usually just wait it out. There are foods that may help. Blueberries may help with diarrhea and/or constipation.

"Blueberries can help relieve both diarrhea and constipation. In addition to soluble and insoluble fiber, blueberries also contain tannins, which act as astringents in the digestive system to reduce inflammation."

I find myself waiting the storm out also, I don't believe there is much more to do. Sometimes a cup of tea helps. If it is the work week I usually take some immoudium for the D and hope for the best. Good Luck, it could be worse you could have missed a day of work for this. It is bad it is your weekend, but you can just lounge and enjoy the chilly winter day.

Peppermint tea, or ginger and honey tea; lots of water, and rest. And not trying to be too social, because I become a major sour-puss. :)

How dumb am I? I made my favorite dinner tonight, for guests, and I had a tray of chicken that was gluten-free for me, and a large tray of "regular" breaded chicken. Guess which tray I took from?! :o

It wasn't until we were putting dinner away that I realized my mistake! I immediately took 2 immodium pills, and I drank a TON of water. Still am drinking water...somehow I feel this flushes it out of my system. It's been almost 9 hours, and no symptoms so far. I do feel a little queasy from so much water!

I don't purposely cheat, but once I actually "forgot" I had celiac, and ate a crouton. I did the same pill/water trick, and didn't have any problems.

My dinner, by the way, was fabulous. Our guests were asking how my chicken was, how it was different, etc. and I said, "It tastes exactly like yours...it's great!" Little did I know!

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      By Samanthaeileen1 · Posted

      Hello there! New to celiac community, although I have lots of family in it.  My two year old was just diagnosed with celiac disease based on symptoms and bloodwork.  symptoms (swollen belly, stomach hurting, gagging all the time, regular small vomit, fatigue, irritability, bum hurting, etc) she got tests at 18 months and her bloodwork was normal. She just got tested again at 2 1/2  because her symptoms were getting worse and these were her results :   Tissue Transglutaminase Ab, IgA 58.8 Unit/mL (High) Endomysial Antibody IgA Titer 1:5 titer (Abnormal)   Gliadin Antibody IgA < 1.0 Unit/mL Gliadin Antibody IgG 8.5 Unit/mL Immunoglobulin A 66 mg/dL Her regular pediatrician diagnosed her with celiac and told us to put her on the strict gluten free diet and that we wouldn’t do an endoscopy since it was so positive and she is so little (26lbs and two years old). I’m honestly happy with this decision, but my family is saying I should push and get an endoscopy for her. It just seems unnecessary and an endoscopy has its own risks that make me nervous. I’m certain she has celiac especially with it running in mine and my husbands family. We are now thinking of testing ourselves and our 5 year old as well.  anyways what would y’all recommend though? Should we ask for an endoscopy and a GI referral? (We are moving soon in 5 months so I think that’s part of why she didn’t refer us to GI)

      This is really helpful  I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks for the practical baking tips too color coding and baking G F first makes a lot of sense.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
