Does anyone have a problem with bloating after working out?

I found that working out made unnoticeable symptoms evident. I got bloating as well as GERD. I had to clean up my diet a bit more. It did make me feel better, though.

Does anyone have a problem with bloating after working out?

What does your diet look like (give examples) for:

- 12 hours prior to your work out

- 12 hours after

That may help us pinpoint something. Been there (unfortunately) but it is now ancient history.

Nope. And I'm wondering if perhaps something you are eating to give you energy before hand might be causing it? I only bloat (this is just me, of course) when I eat gluten. Give your foods another check, the pans you use, the utensils, etc.

I don't know how much these symptoms are related to celiac or not--but after an intense workout (i.e. more than just a walk around the block or 30 minutes on the elliptical) I have noticed the following things:

my whole body feels like it's swelling -- including my legs and feet (which puff up), and my abdomen feels uncomfortably swollen

lack of flexibility / stiffness

extreme fatigue

surprise diarrhea & stomach cramps(as if I drank plumbing fluid that "cleared my pipes")

brain fog

depression / weird dark thoughts/feelings

severe soreness the next day (and even more so the day after that... i.e. 2 days later)

I think there were other things--but I can't remember everything because it has been a while since I've done anything intense (obviously it's not something that results in much joy). Plus I think I retained more water and even GAINED weight from exercising (even though that doesn't make any sense). I was diagnosed celiac in late January and have been gluten-free since then. I don't think my body has healed enough yet for me to see any major differences, but I'm hoping to see changes once I do attempt to start exercising and doing sports again.

I also used to have what I thought were "panic attacks" during sports practices... an allergist tested me for everything and found I was allergic to nothing, so he diagnosed me as having "cholinergic urticaria", which is more or less a condition where the patient responds to heat/exercise/over-exertion with an allergic reaction (most noticeably, hives). Now I'm wondering if this reaction to overexertion could be related to celiac. Hopefully, time will tell.

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.
