Beano: One More Time

I've been feeling bad lately, including thoughts that I've been glutened. I wondered if it might be the BEANO I've been taking every day, one tablet up to 3X a day, for the past few months. Unfortunately, I didn't check the forums here regarding this product, or read the new listing of wheat on the product's label. These "trace" amounts of wheat could be the culprit. Hopefully, that's the only thing that has been contaminating me. I went for a blood test at my primary doctor last week, before I realized BEANO had wheat, and my Gliadin IgA/IgG blood test results were within an acceptable range - so apparently it isn't a major problem.

Hi. I am sorry you feel bad.

I used the Beano product for a while and it didn't help me at all, infact I had more gasses and bloating than before. If the product contains wheat? I now know why it didn't help me.

I hope you feel better soon.

Take care and best reagrds to you.

Thank you for the responses and information.

I've had increasing neurological problems, fatigue, bad dreams, brain fog and some digestive trouble for a few weeks - roughly a month to six weeks after I started using BEANO on a regular basis. Since my diet is so carefully gluten free, I am relatively sure that it's the enzyme. I stopped taking it earlier today, and seem to feel better already - but that may just be psychological at this time. There should be noticeable improvement over the next few days, if in fact it was the BEANO

It's always good to post with confirmed product. No one wants to get any one sick. :)

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Is this celiac?

      By Beverage · Posted

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
