My Symptoms Seem Worse Since gluten-free

I've used every bathroom from here to there lately. It feels worse. I know I just started 5 days ago but I'm going twice as much lately.

Is this normal? :huh:

Yes, it can take some time for your body to heal. The best way to do that quickly is to eat just whole, unprocessed for sure gluten free foods for a bit until your body is healed. Make sure you have checked ALL meds you take, check yourself don't trust your doctor to know. Make sure any supplements you take are gluten free also. Some of us also have an issue with dairy for the first months, have you eliminated that also? Also check all your toiletries and such, gluten can sneak in there. Be aware also of CC issues that may be present.

Thank you! I didn't elimate dairy but it does bother my stomach. I would love to be able to eat it again because butter especially is horrible for me.

I'm making meals that are for sure gluten free with gluten-free products or just basics (chicken, potato, veggies).

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      I strongly agree with others about processed gluten free foods, like breads and pasta, being bad for us. Read the labels, full of this starch and that starch, seed oils that are inflammatory, etc. Before you were celiac, you probably wouldn't even touch something with those ingredients. I do much better with whole foods, meat, veggies, a little fruit. I made 90% myself, make extra and freeze it for future meals. Cutting out processed gluten free food and eating mostly real whoke food helped me feel much better. And definitely benfotiamine!

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Please be sure to try Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride.  The form Thiamine Mononitrate is not absorbed nor utilized well.  Benfotiamine is much more bioavailable.  Perhaps Thiamine Mononitrate was in your previous B Complex supplements, explaining why they didn't work for you.   All the B vitamins work together.  Thiamine needs the other B vitamins to make enzymes and ATP, so you will need to take them.  Taking them in individual supplements is fine.  I've done the same.  Just remember you need all eight.   Let me know how it's going for you!

      Thanks! I am currently trying B1 out on its own. I tried many brands of B-complex and they always make me feel nauseous and tired. I think I may have to try taking each B vitamin on its own.
