Heartburn?

I have had daily heartburn for the last 5-7 years...which goes hand and hand with my weight gain!

I went gluten free...4 days ago and it's 95% better....I am hoping/praying that weight loss ( I eat more because of heartburn ) and going gluten free will do the trick...

I have been reading/googling tons of connections of Heartburn and Gluten Intolerance!!!!

How about you????

For me, it wasn't just heartburn. It was all out reflux, which mimicked heartburn. Once I went gluten free... it went away.

"Heartburn" is exactly how I know whether or not I've been cc'd. It's unmistakable.

How...long tell your gluten free...does it stay in your system long???

For me, going gluten free was a learning process, so I was gluten lite at first. I had had relux (with heartburn) for many years and took Prilosec all that time. I found that yogurt helped immensely if I ate it every day. I finally was able to stop taking medication for it. After I had been gluten lite for a while I pretty much stopped eating yogurt because I was simply getting tired of it every day, but I was still feeling fine. Once I had been totally gluten free for a couple months the relux---heartburn especially---came back big time :huh: I'm pretty sure this time it is from sugar---especially the tangrines I was eating every day. I'm almost back to normal now, but still have to watch the sugar.

i've had heartburn indigestion for around 15 years. I remember it being better when I was the aitkins for a while. I can't drink OJ. Bread can create massive heartburn

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      By trents · Posted

      @cristiana, I'm thinking the intensity of our response to the same amount of gluten can vary from time to time. Our bodies are a dynamic entity.

      Hi @trents Two things can happen:  1/ For a very small gluten hit, I will get a slightly sore stomach for a few days, maybe a day or two following the glutening, and (TMI warning) maybe slightly loose BMs with mucus  for a couple of days.  2/ For a substantial glutening, and thankfully it's only happened once in recent years,  I get bad chills, followed by vomiting, and my heartbeat is all over the place and I can hardly stand.  It's pretty extreme.  That happens within about 2 hours of eating the gluten.  I might feel slightly dizzy for a couple of days after the glutening episode. Interestingly I've just been out to a cafe which hitherto has made a big thing about how their french fries are cooked in a separate fryer.  I shared some with a friend and they were served with chilli sauce, jalapenos, cheddar cheese and fried onions.  Definitely not health food!  Anyway,  I'd eaten half when I realised I'd not checked the menu to ensure that this dish is still gluten-free - and it turns out it isn't!!!  They've changed the ingredients and the fried onions are now cooked with wheat.   I came home expecting to feel dreadful as I had no idea how much gluten I have consumed but so far if anything I feel just little queasy.  I think I'd have thrown up by now had there been a lot of gluten in the onions.

      Persistent isolated high DGP-IGG in child despite gluten-free diet

      It might be wise to start him on small amounts and work up to 10g. Monitor how he reacts. Some people simply cannot complete the gluten challenge because it makes them too ill. By the way, you can buy powdered gluten in health food stores, at least here in the states you can. With a food scale, it would be easy to measure the amount being consumed in a day. I'm not sure what the intensity of reaction to gluten tells you about what's actually going on with regard to celiac disease. I mean there are some celiacs like me who don't seem to react to minor exposure amounts but who get violently ill with larger exposures. Then there are celiacs who get some kind of reaction to even the tiniest amount of exposure but don't necessarily get violently ill. And how the reaction manifests itself is very different for different people. Some, like me, experience emesis and diarrhea. Others just get brain fog. Others get joint pain. It's all over the map.

      That's interesting - that's a lot of gluten! I'll be very curious to see how my son responds to the gluten. In some ways, I guess having a strong reaction would tell us something? It's tough navigating this as a parent and having it be not so clear cut ;\
