Two years ago after doing an elimination diet, my Doctor told me to not eat gluten. I did really good for a while and then decided since it won't kill me (just cause stomach pain similar to an ulcer, which I am basically used to since I had it my whole life) I would just eat what I wanted. Recently I decided to be good to my body and try abstaining from gluten again, and for the last two weeks, I have had gas and diarrhea non-stop. In all honesty, I'd prefer the tiny holes being eaten in my stomach...no one can see/hear/smell that. I am thinking maybe my doctor was wrong, and I am not gluten intolerant. Considering I feel worse without it, than I did when I ate it. Any one have any ideas/thoughts on this? I do know a visit to an actual doctor is a good idea, but it has to wait until next year...I had a lymphoma scare last winter and I am still paying off the bills.

Your body got addicted to it hun. Its gonna take a while to get out of your system.

I'm thinking that you have other food intolerences that you do not know about as well.

You seem to be intolerant of whatever you have swapped out for the gluten! Are you eating a bunch of gluten-free baked goods with xanthan gum?

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      suggest gluten free food

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
