Has Anyone Found That They Can Tolerate Gluten Again?

I have been reading about Leaky Gut syndrome and how it can be implicated in Celiac. Has anyone found that after some time has elapsed and their gut has had a chance to heal, they can then tolerate some Gluten and/or Dairy?

If you have Leaky Gut, and NOT celiac, you may be able to tolerate gluten again. There are a few members on this board who that has happened for.

But, if you have Celiac, you must NEVER EVER eat gluten again! It's just that simple!

The only issues is that you want to make sure that you have leaky gut, not Celiac if you're going to eat gluten later down the road. Celiac must be 100% ruled out (I don't even know if that's possible?!)

I was completely gluten intolerant, but did not have celiac disease. Now that my leaky gut and other health issues are resolved, I can eat gluten again with no problems. Before I was sensitive to the smallest amount of contamination. So, yes, it is possible.

However, NOT FOR A CELIAC!!! Sorry .....

If you have Celiac you will never ever be able to tolerate gluten. A Celiac's tolerance to dairy depends on each person. I tolerate dairy without any trouble. Some people have to temporarily take the dairy out of their diet when they go gluten free but are able to add it later as the intestines heal. Others have lactose or casien intolerances restricting or eliminating dairy from their diets permanently.

I have to agree if you are celiac gluten is always going to be a poison to you. There are times when folks are diagnosed and have healed and they may seem to be able to tolerate it again for a while. This is one of the reasons they used to think children grew out of celiac. I think it is called a 'honeymoon' period. It can take time for the antibody effects to make themselves known and a lot of damage can be done before we realize what is going on. Also the antibodies can choose to attack tissues other than just the gut so in some there could be serious neurological, glandular and joint damage before they think that celiac has come back. If you are celiac there is no going back to gluten.

If you are celiac, you cannot ever have gluten. Gliadin, horedin, and secalin have sections in them recognized by the immune system in the intestines which cause the creation of other molecules that attack the intestines (the autoimmune reaction). That's just how celiacs are chemically 'wired', thanks to genetics that codes up our immune system. Nothing will change that. (Nothing short of genetic therapy.)

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
