Alcohol Issues/l-glutathione

I found out I have celiacs about two weeks ago, Cut out all gluten and such that night.I have been feeling better, but I still have some days where my stomach gets pretty upset. The few nights I have consumed alcohol, the next day I feel horrible, and am very sick to my stomach. I had one beer, a gluten, wheat and barley free beer and felt horrible the next day. I have also had a little rum, and the same thing. I was wondering if perhaps im so damaged my body just cant absorb the alcohol, or..? Anyone else have this issue? Any advice? As of now, I have completely cut out alcohol.

Also, Im taking l-glutathione. Anyone have luck with this?

I have read and heard from multipe sources that you should actually avoid actual for 6mths-1year depending on how much damage you have done to your insides which you can normally find out when you have you biopsy if you had one.

I know myself, if I drink than I will be recovering the whole next day, and I mean violently ill. I was diagnosed in mar/08, and I am waiting for the day when I can have more than 2 drinks and not get so sick.

Hope this helps

Good luck!

One of my many signs of a problem with my gut was when I couldn't tolerate the glasses of wine I would have on a Friday night out with the girls... All of a sudden I would get deathly ill and need 2 days to really recover. I've been gluten free for 5 mos, casein and soy free for 1 month and still am very sensitive to alcohol. More than one glass of wine and I have trembles, headache and fatigue the next day.

I do get very sick from alcohol when I've been glutened. I'd hold off on alcohol for a while until you have longer to heal. What brand of beer just out of curiosity? People are trying to tell me I can drink Budweiser all the time because it's brewed from... umm, I can't remember exactly what, but it's some gluten-free grain (can I blame this one on brain fog :P) People forget about the added malt.

Dear new community member,

I could not drink any wine or any type of liquor for a very long time after diagnosis. Now (6 years later) I can tolerate one or two drinks, sometimes.It varies as far as tolerance. My Dr., who does not drink, suggested that I should not drink at all. That' unnecessarily extreme ! However, since you are newly diagnosed, may I suggest you give your poor struggling body a chance to really heal. You 'll never regret that. I am sure you'll miss having an occasional 'brew' . I suggest you follow your body's tolerance. You can't go wrong doing that. I have no regrets.

Budweiser is'nt gluten free. Anheiser busch (sp) is the company that produces budweiser.They make a beer however called redbridge...its completely gluten and free and not so bad.

      Healthy Omega Three fats. Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat. Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel. Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body. Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.

      Is this celiac?

      The reaction one gets when they get glutened varies a lot from person to person. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      A gluten ingestion can last for many months. Many years ago there was a celiac conference in Fl. Everyone there got contaminated with some having difficulty 6 months to recover. It will hit your Lympatic system and spread through the body and effect your nevous system as well. Most times when I get glutened it is from a prescription med that wasn...

      Is this celiac?

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps. I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday. I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testi...

      @DebJ14, You said "husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation."   I don't think black seed oil is lowering inflammation.  It's lowering blood glucose levels. Black cumin seed lowers blood glucose levels.  There's a connection between high blood glucose levels and Afib.    Has your husband been checked for diabetes?   Must Read: Associations of high-normal blood pressure and impaired fasting glucose with atrial fibrillation https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36750354/

      Healthy Omega Three fats.  Olive oil or flaxseed oil, oily fish, fatty cuts of meat.   Our bodies run much better on burning fats as fuel.  Diets based on carbohydrates require an increased amount of thiamine to process the carbs into fuel for the body.  Unfortunately, thiamine mononitrate is used to enrich rice.  Thiamine mononitrate is relatively unusable in the body.  So a high carb diet can further decrease thiamine stores in the body.  Insufficient thiamine in the body causes the body to burn body fat and muscle for fuel, so weight loss and muscle wasting occurs.  Those extra carbohydrates can lead to Candida (often confused with mold toxicity) and SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth).   Losing weight quickly is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  Muscle wasting is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.  I lost sixty pounds in a month.   Having difficulty putting weight on and keeping it on is a symptom of thiamine insufficiency.   The AIP diet works because it eliminates all grains and grasses, rice, quinoa, all the carbs.  Without the carbs, the Candida and SIBO get starved and die off.  Easy way to change your microbiome is to change what you feed it.  With the rowdy neighbors gone, the intestine can heal and absorb more nutrients.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals is beneficial.  Talk to your doctor and nutritionist.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that promotes intestinal healing.  The eight B vitamins are water soluble, so if you don't need them, they can be gotten rid of easily.   Night shades are excluded on the AIP diet.  Potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant are not allowed on the AIP diet.  They contain alkaloids that promote "a leaky gut".  Benfotiamine can help here. Sweet potatoes are avoided because they contain thiaminases, chemicals that break thiamine so that the body cannot use it.   The AIP diet has helped me.

      Thank you so much for the responses. Every piece of information helps.  I only knowingly ate gluten once, that was four days ago. I had the reaction about 3-4 hours after consuming it. I’m concerned that after 4 days the symptoms aren’t abating and almost seem worse today than yesterday.  I haven’t had either breath test. I did ask about additional testing but the PA recommended me to a celiac specialist. Unfortunately the first available is mid-December.  As far as diet, I am a pescatarian (have been for 25+ years) and I stopped eating dairy mid-last week as my stomach discomfort continued. Right now, I’m having trouble eating anything. Have mostly been focused on bananas, grapes, nut butters, DF yogurt, eggs, veggie broth.   I ordered some gluten-free meal replacements to help.  But I’ll get all the items (thank goodness for Instacart) and try the diet you recommended to get me past this period of feeling completely awful.  Yes, my doctor diagnosed celiac. I was concerned it wasn’t right based on the negative blood test and my continued symptoms.  Even if you are ‘glutened’ it shouldn’t last forever, right? Is four days too long?
