I know I haven't been gluten free for long, only 5 days now, but I've noticed that I haven't gone in 3 days. Is that normal once you start eating gluten free? The first 2 days of the diet I still had the D, but now nothing <_< . Should I be taking something to help me go??

thanks

Rachael

I had the reverse problem before I was gluten free. I take magnesium for that as well as neurological symptoms. You may very well need suplements anyway. The mag. is what cures me. There is always prunes or prune juice. Must be nice not to have the D anyway! But I know it can be as bad not going too. More Fresh veggies and fruit too. Check with your nutritionist on the vits.

A lot of people switch to gluten-free food that are processed. Most have ZERO fiber. So make sure you are getting enough fiber in your diet: Whole fruits, veggies, nuts & seeds, brown rice, etc. PLUS make sure you are drinking lots of water. You are healing and cleaning, so you need even more than normal. And magnesium does help. :)

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
