Gluten Detox


Laurelf

Recommended Posts

I've been off gluten for a full week now, but I still get very bad gas pains. Is this normal? Or does it mean something other than gluten has been causing my symptoms? Since going g.f., I have had more energy and my skin symptoms are clearing, but no relief with the gas- no matter what I eat, the pain starts about 30 min to an hour later.

What does detox feel like?

Thanks.

I'm sorry I really don't has an answer I'd just like to day I'm gluten free 1 1/2 months now and I've been feeling better in energy and headaches are gone but my bloating is awful. Everytime I eat my stomah grows. I wake up with a slightly bloated stomach, and everytime I eat it just grows to the poirnt where the end of the day I am huge and sick and heating pads and stuff. My main symptom was unbelievably stubborn constipation which I don't think is fixed that's why I'm so bloated, I go daily(now that school has started I haven't been!) but I think I'm so backed up. All of this and I'm only 13.

Wow that really didn't answer you I just wanted to let you know that your not tv only one who didn't miracly have all of their problems immediatley go away(hopefully they will soon)

Good luck and I'm iterested in hearing the answers you get from these helpful people

Are either of you eating alternate grains? They really do a number on me. How about dairy? At first you should not eat dairy as most of us have damaged villi that cannot tolerate dairy.

I would suggest to both you to give up dairy first. See if you see improvement in a few days. If not stop the grains and see how you feel. It's the only way to know.

People with withdrawals seem to describe them as even more intense gluten symptoms. Anyone know more than that?

      Bread has about 8 g of protein per 100 g, so a piece of bread weighing 125 mg contains 10 mg of gluten. Bread has a density of about 0.25 g/ml, so 0.5 ml of bread contains 10 mg of gluten - i.e. a bread ball 1 cm in diameter. I think it would be unlikely to ingest this much from throwing bread out for the birds.

      Sciatica came to mind for me as well. You might want to get some imaging done on your C-spine.

      Maybe this is sciatica? When mine acts up a little, I switch my wallet from one back pocket to the other. this isn't a substitute for more serious medical help, but for me it's a bandaid.

      OK so I just learned something completely new about this for the first time in years, that is REALLY WEIRD. One of my nerves that likes to "burn" or whatever is doing it every time I bow my head! I mean it is completely repeatable. Literally every time. Once my head goes beyond a certain angle *boom*. Nerve goes mental (lower right leg pain). What the hell. I've never seen a direct trigger such as this before that I can recall. The pain was the usual type I get from this problem - I suspect somehow the head movement was interrupting descending inhibition processes, causing the pain to leak through somehow.

      I've only made this a couple of times but it's really easy and I love the flavor. If you can, use all of the ingredients to get the full palette of flavors. I use fresh or canned tomatoes and I don't worry about peeling them. If you don't have harissa, there are replacement recipes online. If you don't have the greens, I suggest adding a little chopped baby spinach or celery leaves to add a dash of green color to this red dish. Best eaten in first couple days because flavor tends to fade. Leftovers are still good, but not as vibrant. Ingredients 2 medium eggplants, partially peeled and cut into cubes (original recipe says 1 in, but I prefer 1/2 to 3/4 in) 2 tomatoes, peeled and crushed 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced 1 tablespoon fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons spicy harissa (I use Mina brand) 1 teaspoon cumin 1 teaspoon paprika ½ teaspoon black pepper 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice 1 tablespoon tomato paste (optional) Salt to taste Preparation     • Heat olive oil in skillet or pot over medium heat. Add all ingredients and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cover and cook on low heat for an additional 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.       • Serve warm or cold as a side or with bread for dipping. Enjoy!
