Gluten Detox

I've only been gluten-free for 11 days and I know it takes some time to fully detox from gluten, but does anyone know of a way to assist with the detox? I'm being diligent about my diet, so that's not an issue. I am excited to feel really healthy once it's "flushed."

I 'm in the same boat as you ...I have been off gluten for almost 2 weeks...Besides staying away from gluten..you can drink more water..especially with lemon (helps the liver) ...maybe try to stay away from as much dairy too as possible..theres a chnace that you could have a little bit of a milk allergy. More fruits and veggies to help clean the bowels, stay away from gluten free processed stuff too, I know its gluten free but it still doesn't mean its that great for you.... All that stuff would be a great start.

Eat plainly and simply- whole foods.

Take your vitamins.

Drink lots of water.

Sleep as much as you need to.

Test vitamin levels if you haven't.

Watch for cross-contamination.

Minimize junk food and gluten free processed foods.

That's about it!

Time does the rest!

      Hi. So sorry to hear about your shingles. There is a lidocaine cream that you can get at Walmart that will help numb the pain.  That's what I used for mine. It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral.  It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes,  see an ophthalmologist.  They have an antiviral eye drop that can be prescribed.  Shingles in the eye could cause blindness.  I was unsure whether you have celiac or not.  If you do,  follow the diet.  I believe that extra stress on your body does affect everything. Shingles can recur. If you start getting the warning signs of nerves tingling,  see the dr and start taking the valacyclovir to prevent a breakout. If I sound technical,  I am a retired pharmacist.

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.

      This is an older article, but still helpful:

      It's strange because I'm pretty sure not too long ago I picked up a loaf of bread with B vitamins, but I can't find a single one now.  Probably cutbacks, everyone's trying to save money now!

      Eating grains typically depletes certain B vitamins, so I'm not sure why they decided to fortify with calcium and iron, but hopefully we'll see more B vitamin fortification in gluten-free products going forward.
