I Can't Believe This!

Hey everyone,

I am so thrilled at how I've felt today. My head felt clear and I've had energy all day. Only felt a little funny after eating a mini Almond Joy. I am so hoping that this will last. Only been gluten free since Wednesday, but did so right after my colonoscopy/endoscopy. Also started taking a multivitamin and calcium/magnesium supplement and juicing with fresh veggies and fruit every day.

Is this normal? Anyone else have this reaction after going gluten-free?

Yes, I have also eliminated casein (dairy) and, oh yeah, alcohol. I notice that it takes a couple of days to get the casein and gluten out of my system, alcohol takes a week and a half. I have been juicing to: 1/2 a dozen ice cubes, banana, assorted fruits and whammo ready to go!

I had a similar experience with feeling much better after going gluten-free. I have been so for about 3 weeks and have some continuing symptoms of bloating/indigestion/reaction to fats - something that makes the gut feel very full and painful. Big appetite and pleasuer from eating again vs. always feling bad about eating...I am waiting for my blood tests to see about anti-body confirmation. I understand that the degree of damage to the gut can affect the recovery rate and that some people experience continuing symptoms....? I have insomnia issues and do not feel 100%, although the difference in how I feel is very rncouraging. How does one find out what one needs in terms of diet practices, vitamins, etc. that may aid the recovery? I have fatty liver and need to lose weight. The improvement in mood, irritability, and inflammatory symptoms in joints is very encouraging. I hope that it is not just a "placebo effect" and that it is all in my mind.

      Going Low-Gluten May Harm Good Gut Bacteria, Researchers Warn

      It's like a double edged sword.......we do one thing to improve a problem and cause another problem. I'd like to think the ultimate cure might be something that would train or modify the body to prevent the damage that gluten causes.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
