What's Up With The Gas?


Nat1

Recommended Posts

I hadn't had this symptom before and all of a sudden, I have this horrible gas stuck inside me every single day. I am not constipated so why would I have it? I feel it first thing in the morning even before I eat and then definitely after I eat. Anybody has an explanation for this? Especially since I am regular?

Thanks!

How long have you been gluten-free? That happened to me about after a week of gluten-free, where I was terribly gassy all day before and after eating no matter what. I'm wondering if it's not a detox symptom. I am somewhat constipated, but still have it on days I'm not. I just drink aloe juice, take enzymes with big meals, and take one or two Gas-X a day. I also bought some fennel tea to try 'cause it's supposed to help, but I haven't used it yet.

I've been gluten-free for about 6 months and that was definitely an issue for me for at least 2 or 3 months but am happy to report, it is much (much) better now. =)

OK good to know that will progbably pass. I've been gluten-free for several months but started to really stick to eat just recently (not celiac, just intolerant).

Got some fennel tea over lunch and it does seem to be helping!

I don't know how much milk you drink but for me, shortly after going gluten free, I had this problem and it turned out to be a lactose intolerance due to the damage in the small intestine.

Hope you feel better!

i get painful/trapped gas SO freakin easily... before i knew about Gluten Intolerance.... and after i went gluten free... i WISH removing gluten was enough for me- but unfortunately i have SO MANY additional intolerances

suffering right now- i think i overdid it with the greens & banana smoothie today (i have fructose/fructans issues)... and then i had a 1/2 grilled cheese for dinner- Udi's bread & cheddar- and i sometimes cant handle dairy & ANY starches...

so... im suffering right now- i took 3 or 4 gas ex gel caplets.... and my body just doesnt get rid of it well- it takes forever :angry:

Have you tried fennel tea, peppermint tea, or any other "natural" gas remedies?

I just ask because the fennel tea I have is specifically marketed for IBS symptoms.

cassP Contributor

hey Strawberry- i dont know if you're talkin to me- but thanks for the info- i dont like peppermint tea- but im tots gonna look for the fennel :)

Strawberry-Jam Enthusiast

oh yeah I was, sorry. I can't have peppermint tea either or it'll give me reflux :( but I like the fennel ok. It has a licorice taste. Might take some getting used to, unless you like licorice.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.
