How To Ease A Heavy Stomach?

You know that heavy, sweaty, dehydrated feeling that one gets in their lower stomach area when one falls asleep on a meal of fat/oil, or gluten? I ate gluten a day and a half ago. It's keeping me up and It's really bad. I've never had it for days straight before. Is there anyway to soothe it or do I just have to ride it out?

You might try drinking something plain and fizzy, like soda water or ginger ale, to make you burp. Generally that heavy feeling for me relates to trapped gas that you need to get rid of to feel better. I also take the Gas-X soft gels, and I guiet my stomach with yogurt. You will have to test and see what works for you. Sometimes when all else fails I sear my gut with neat scotch :blink::o

I eat lots of vegetables, nothing else. Might not work if you have/ have had D.

I love it!! :D

I agree that you will need to figure out what works for you--suggestions will help you with where to start. I tend to use fat free greek yogurt, bland foods like potatoes, and tea. Lots of spring water and to Shroomie's point, a little wine helps my stomach settle down many times.

What works for me is sipping a lot of water and eating very, very little (mostly plain rice, plain veggies, plain fruits). I hate that feeling. Ugh.

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure. These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract. Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop. Ataxia is just one of over two hundred...

      symptoms.

      @Rebeccaj, When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air. Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract. If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies...

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors. Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health. Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption. Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms. Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming...

      Finding gluten free ingredients

      Do keep in mind that most gluten free flours are not enriched nor fortified with vitamins and minerals like gluten containing flours are required to do. Consuming a diet high in carbohydrates without sufficient B vitamins to digest and process them into energy can lead to High Calorie Malnutrition and weight gain. Deficiency symptoms of B vitamins...

Deficiency symptoms of B vitamins resemble gastrointestinal symptoms when after eating gluten.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a form of Thiamine deficiency.   Do talk to your doctors about supplementing with essential nutrients while on the gluten free diet, especially if you're consuming processed foods.
