Hey guys I know that this topic was discussed a few pages back but I feel awful and want to know why!!! Ive been taking thyroid medication(50mcg) for about a month and a half now and just started taking magnesium like 3 days ago. I probably took the magnesium around 2-3 hours after the thyroid medication. I didnt take the magnesium today but yesterday and today I have felt really depressed and cant figure out why. I was starting to feel normalish a few weeks ago and havent been this depressed since I started the gluten free diet!! Any suggestions??

I am also on thyroid meds and take magnesium and do fine. Maybe it depends on the thyroid med? I do get feelings of depression when I have come in contact with glutens.

Thanks for your response AVR! I cant think of why it would have happened but I guess maybe it was gluten. Ive been pretty depressed for 2 days and still not feeling well. How long do your symptoms usually last when coming in contact with gluten?

My digestive issues will hit about 24 hours after getting gluten in my system. The stomach stuff doesn't last more than a day and I think this is why I had such a hard time figuring out what was wrong. What last for me is the dizziness and loss of memory. Those are my worst symptoms and I could be dizzy for 10 days or 3 weeks, depending.

I take a generic form of thyroid replacement hormone early morning (around 5:30) and a Calcium + Magnesium supplement with dinner. I've never had any problems with depression from them. Gluten, on the other hand.... So, I think AVR's glutening hypothesis is a good one. Or it may be that you need more thyroid hormone replacement (if that's your med)--hypothyroidism can cause depression-like symptoms. If you only started it a month ago, you may not be on the correct dose yet. Worth checking out if it doesn't get better. Hope you feel better soon!

      Flour 1to1 Mixes never ending lol

      This was one I tried w/o issues using gluten-free flour. It gets confusing the 121 cup for cup. Especially the price of it. But I love using the make your own mixes of gluten-free flours potato starch such as this to make it go further https://theloopywhisk.com/2021/09/23/homemade-gluten-free-flour-blend/ Heres a recipe stating 1:1 https://chefalina.com/gluten...

      That's an idea. I have found good chocolate chip recipes that mimic tates cookies or other chocolate chip cookies with gluten-free for without an issue. I have seen recipes from chef Alina looping whisk etc that have gluten-free flour but they are trial and error. I guess I will have to mix and match. I made my own flour using flax meal corn flour potato...

      Gluten free flours can be very different, even from one manufacturer. For example, King Arthur has two certified gluten free flours that act quite differently in some recipes. I find that it is best to use the recipes on the website of the manufacturer of the flour, although I often bake for a shorter time than listed. I like this recipe for chocolate...

      Are you supplementing any vitamins?  Recently added medications? the ones that helped me the most noticibly was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine, B6 speeds up gastric motility, gastric motility, which is the movement of food through the stomach, is primarily achieved through peristalsis. Moving food faster helps bloating. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline  brain fog, fat digestion.  Since the recommended reduction in red meat and eggs, experts estimate that only 10% of the population eats the minimum RDA., 500 mg.  Choline is a large percentage of bile.  Many Celiacs are first diagnosed as Gall Bladder surgery candidates.  It works for a while, fut the the symptoms come back. Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Low fat yogurt.  My favorite brand is Stonyfield.  Pasture fed means an omega 6:3 ratio of 1:1.  Comercial dairies feed grains and have omega 6:3 ratio  of 5:1.  Omega 3 is healing, omega 6 is inflammatory. No fat yogurts, including greek style has various gums added to replicate the fatty mouth feel, and these gums like guar gum can have several side effects, especially if low vitamin B6 causes poor gastric emptying. Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation. The American diet is fortified.  Gluten free foods are not.

I have found good sandwich bread at Whole Foods called 365 which is under $4 for a regular loaf you won't realize its gluten-free or the Promise bread brand. Making your own sandwich bread seems like a bunch that break apart etc. Eventually I will have to try one.
