Rumbling, Grumbling, Gurgling Madness!

Does it stop with the gluten free diet? I haven't started the diet yet, because I have read enough to know that I should wait until AFTER the horrid intestinal biopsy is done.

One of the most annoying things (and embarassing!!) is HOW LOUD my tum tum is. My customers comment on it at least once a day. <_<

People are always telling me to eat something, offering me food *of course its not going to help, 98% of the time its pizza or donuts or something else loaded with the evile gluten*

I am constantly digesting or hungering... sigh

My gurgling didn't stop until I quit fruit and fruit juice and started eating fairly gigantic quantities of vegetables, almost two years after going gluten free. I think that both moves contributed to quelling the gurgling, but I appear to suffer from fructose malabsorption, which you may not. Why not try both, but one at a time, and see if either help? It'll be something to take your mind off still having to eat gluten anyway.:)

(Short answer to your question: not necessarily.)

My loud stomach was gone within the first couple of weeks. It started for me in childhood and was so loud I would carry a sweater or jacket to ball up on my tummy if I had to be somewhere quiet like a theather or a school class. The only time it growls now is if I injest gluten or large amounts of dairy. The same goes for gas, with the exception of if I have been drinking a lot of carbonated beverages. Even beans don't get me.

Yes, for the most part it stopped once the evil gluten was omitted. I understand the angst over it!

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Bitters for digestion?

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
