He Is Such A Grump The Last Few Days!

We have had William gluten-free for almost a week and the last 2 days he has been AWFUL! So grumpy and talking back. He doesn't like anything. He just threw a fit because we are making him a special pizza all for him... Is this just because his body is going through like a withdrawl or something? He has his moments usually and he used to have a bad bit with screaming and stuff and that stopped for a while and the last 2 days he has been way worse than before!

Don't discount the emotional/psychological effect that such a drastic change in diet could bring on as well. Hopefully, it'll pass soon! :-)

Some people do indeed go through withdrawal.

You know I was so sad this morning when he wanted to go get donuts... :( That used to be our special treat and I had to tell him we couldn't do that because they would make him sick and he just didn't want to believe it.

Could be withdrawal, or he's really young right? So could be really hard for him to deal with too. A lot of adults have trouble dealing!

I'm pretty sure I went through withdrawal. Had a bad headache for 4 days or so.. and mild one, making it about a week.

I'm not certain how you'd feel about this suggestion, but here goes :rolleyes: I gather William is quite young still? To make him feel like he isn't being singled out for negative treatment (you get one pizza, he gets something "different") why not all of you go gluten-free with him, in the house and in his presence anyway? Then, trying new things would be an adventure for all of you, he's still part of his favorite crowd of people, and it's not perceived as just a punishment for him.

As for donuts, my kids LOVE (and I mean are really crazy for) Kinnicknick (how is this spelled?) donuts. They're frozen in packs of 6. All varieties are awesome (my fave is the cinnamon sugar one.) In no sense of the word are they "diet" food (more calories than a krispy kreme!) You could still make a trip out to get donuts with him. :)

My, now 10 year old daughter, was a chronic grump for about 3 months. She didn't like the food. "It tastes funny," she would say. It takes a while for a child to adjust to something like this. It is a huge lifestyle change in your kitchen and in their mouth. They will eventually get used to it. Especially, when they really, really start feeling better.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

      How can you be negative for HLA?   What markers did you have here? Curiouser and curiouser...

      Yes, I have noticed a big difference.  I had serious malnutrition symptoms that my doctors couldn't figure out, so they blamed me, said I was "depressed" and washed their hands of me.  At home, I could feel myself dying, and, with nothing left to lose, I relied on knowledge from my microbiology and nutrition classes at university.  I went gluten free.  I started taking vitamins according to my nutritional deficiency symptoms.  Vitamins worked.  My health improved.  Now I'm here to help others.  Celiac disease causes malabsorption which results in malnutrition.  Doctors don't recognize the symptoms of Celiac disease and malnutrition. Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing and digestion, improves diabetes and neuropathy and much more.  TTFD (Thiamax or TTFD-B1 Max) helps with brain function, neuropathy and lots more.  Every cell in the body needs thiamine to make energy so the cell can function.  Without sufficient thiamine, mitochondria die.  Every cell also needs thiamine and the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes.  Thiamine has antiviral and antibacterial properties.   We may not be getting sufficient thiamine from our diets if we eat a lot of carbohydrates.  The more carbs one eats the more thiamine is needed to process them into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine, the body stores the carbs as fat. This is called high calorie malnutrition.   We may not be getting sufficient thiamine from our diets if we eat a gluten free diet.  Gluten free flours and processed foods are not required to be enriched nor fortified with vitamins and minerals like their gluten containing counterparts.  Meats are the best sources of thiamine, but some veggies (beans, potatoes, squash) and fruits (citrus and berries) contain some thiamine.    Explore thiamine more here: https://hormonesmatter.com/thiamine-deficiency-causes-problems/

      Yes, I would be good with the diagnosis.  While NCGS isn't a malabsorptive disease like celiac disease, inflammation and restricted diets can impact Vitamin D levels.  Recovery from either disease requires avoiding gluten.  celiac disease may take a longer recovery than NCGS because in celiac disease there is intestional damage to the cilia that has to self repair in addition to the nutritional deficiencies.   Nonceliac Gluten Sensitivity Dr. Weston Price's research in the 1930s showed that diets rich in minerals and fat-soluble vitamins (A, D3, K2) promoted well-mineralized teeth, while deficiencies led to weaker enamel. Fatty liver, Intermittent diarrhea, Severe abdominal distension Choline deficiency causes abnormal deposition of fat in the liver, which results in a condition called nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. In some people, choline deficiency causes muscle damage. https://lpi.oregonstate.edu/mic/other-nutrients/choline    Choline is a large part if the bile salts for fat digestion, Acetycholine, a neural transmitter, mitochondria membrane structure, and along with folate, B12, and B6 recycles homocysteine  High homocysteine can damage artery linings. Low vitamin D levels are associated with increased symptoms of depression and anxiety,  autoimmune diseases and most of your symptoms.
