Cleansing/detoxing Phase?

When you first started going gluten-free, did you go through a phase where your body acted as if it was detoxing?

Detoxing as in major withdrawal from glutens and temptation to eat it anyway and starving all the time? yep!

What I mean is more like your body is getting rid of toxins or cleansing itself. I am breaking out more than usual, got a sore in my mouth, stuff like that. Just wondering if it's common to have some side effects at first until your body regulates itself, while you are in the transition phase.

I experienced that. Had to go to the bathroom more than normal, didn't have breakouts, but I felt like I was detoxing.

Here are mine (1 week gluten-free):

1. Severe headaches

2. Lower left abdominal discomfort/pain

3. Acne, hopefully will clear up soon, it's bad

4. Canker sores

5. Very tired

6. Very hungry for first 2 days

On the plus side, within a day or two my loose stools/undigested food in stools went away completely, and I've had periods where I felt amazing, not just my usual bla self. I also lost my grumpy irritability, which my wife is thankful about.

After 4-5 days I got heartburn pretty badly for about 3 days straight. Like wicked heartburn that ive never gotten before. Luckily that went away now.

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.
