Canker Sore From Being Glutened?

Ok, the health food store lady glutened me today. About an hour later I noticed a canker sore inside my mouth, on the same side I was chewing the cracker... coincidence? I've only been gluten free for about 2 weeks, and I was never confirmed Celiac, but we suspect that I am the culprit for my DD's troubles since I was more symptomatic than DH. Do you think just chewing that cracker, even though I spit it out, caused me to get a canker sore??

Yes it is quite possible.

I dunno, I started reading on the other canker sore thread, and it seams that canker sores are more from a weaker immune system? It was probably just a coincidence. Did seem really odd to me though.

Here is a link you may find helpful.

I quoted that link on page 4 of the thread you are talking about. They can definately be caused by celiac and gluten although there are other causes also.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      Our Functional Medicine doctor has always ordered the Spectracell Test for Micronutrient Deficiencies.  It tests the intracellular levels of the nutrients, not blood levels.  When high dose, targeted supplementation did not resolve the deficiencies after retesting at 6 months and then a year, he ordered genetic tests.  I have a genetic inability to process Vitamin D, B12 and antioxidants, so I am on high doses of those for life.  The rest of the initial deficiencies resolved within 6 months to a year and a good multi vitamin is sufficient to address those.  My husband has historically had high homocysteine levels and his low folate, B 12 and B6  levels are because of his MTHFR gene mutation.  Always good to get to the root cause!

      Ectopic heartbeats - any relation to digestive issues?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Idnam! Ranitidine and Famotidine are not proton pump inhibitors. They are H2 blockers. It is true that histamine intolerance is common in the celiac population. We often don't produce enough of a histamine regulator called DAO (diamine oxidase). Not sure, but this may be due to damage to the gut lining by celiac inflammation. You might also want to research MCAS (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome) as it is often goes hand in glove with histamine intolerance and is actually the root cause. Or, at least that is my understanding. By the way, you can purchase DAO capsules but there is not clear evidence they work.

      Very interesting, @Idnam.  When I was experiencing this problem at its worse, I found high carb meals like lots of rice or too many cookies were a trigger.
