I'm sure this is old information for some of you but this is the response I got from red bull:

Good news - Red Bull Energy Drink and Red Bull Sugarfree are both wheat and gluten free! I say this with great confidence as I too am gluten intolerant and luckily I can still enjoy my wiiings (daily)!

So pop open a cold can, and watch your wiiings grow!

Cheers,

Red Bull is also an awesome tool for getting through a glutening. It doesn't stop the symptoms, but it sure does help.

I hadnt really thought of that! I get REALLY fatigued when I get glutened so I could see how that would work!! I was just researching for drinking purposes since I know I can still drink hard liquor. :P

How does it help, I have never drank red bull, cause i dont drink caffeine for medical and personal reasons, but would love to know how it helps.

I think it's a combination of the caffeine and the high doses of B vitamins in those things. I'm not sure though. I just know that a few people on the board recommended it to me when I get glutened and I tried it and it worked. It didn't make the D go away, but it sure did help with the mood swings, the fatigue, and the brain fog. It helped more than I would have thought it could.

      Symptoms - Ulcers & Cough

      By BlakeAlex · Posted

      I am 70 years old but very active. Yes, that is the GI Reset and didn't see any issue from using it the first two weeks. I realized the Aleve may not be gluten free and I have reacted to those pills. I am taking AlgaeCal - Natural Algae Calcium Supplements To Increase Bone Density.  It is the swelling of the throat and blisters on the back of the tongue which worries me. I have not seen anyone report these symptoms. Thank you   Blake

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      Hello, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis about 3 years ago. At that time I quit gluten and it really helped my symptoms. I hadn't known that I should've tested for celiac before doing so.  Up till recently, gluten would cause my symptoms to flare up, although I never noticed anything with cross contamination, so I wasn't strict about that. But recently, I noticed I could get away with more gluten, and so I decided to do a gluten challenge to see if I had celiac and if I had to be strict. Note that my thyroid antibodies had been decreasing steadily up to this point. My anti-TPO had reached 50 IU/ml from 250 IU/ml (reference range 0-5.6) when I had first been diagnosed. After just a week of the gluten challenge, I measured my thyroid antibodies and they were at 799 IU/ml! I felt fine, but a few days after I started to feel the symptoms. Extreme brain fog, insomnia, diarheaa, fatigue, sleepiness yet cannot sleep, stomachache after eating gluten, nausea, swollen throat (probably due to my thyroid), burping, and gas. I cannot function properly. I'm also worried that I'm killing my thyroid. Should I just quit the challenge? It's been almost two weeks, but the first week I wasn't tracking well, so that's why I didn't want to count it. I can't eat gluten anyway because of my thyroid, but I wanted the diagnosis to know if I should be strict about cross contamination or not.

      Should I ask for more testing? Celiac vs. Gluten Sensitivity

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      You really saved me as I was on day 4 of 3 g per day for 6 weeks. Thank you very much!

      Two weeks is the minimum according to the guideline. I would go for four weeks if you can endure it, just to make sure.

      Thank you so much! So I can do 10 g worth of gluten in the form of gluten powder per day for two weeks and that should be enough?
