Heartburn After Eating Gluten Free Foods...

Since going gluten-free, I feel SO much better. But I have had two terrible heartburn experiences. I mean this was not mild heartburn, this was chest on fire MAKE IT GO AWAY hearburn! Both times were after I ate food labeled as "gluten free".

The first time was after trying a gluten-free pizza on special gluten-free crust.

This last time was after having a handful of gluten-free pretzels by Glutino. They were really good too.... but but worth the after burn.

What could be causing this? Any thoughts?

This happens to me when I get glutened by cross contamination. It happens a day or so before the intestinal issues start. Either that or there is something else in the food that doesn't agree with you such as soy or corn etc.

That happened to me two weekends ago. I could not figure out what caused it.

Was that a take out pizza? Not all places that do gluten free pizza have pizza that is really gluten free due to all the cross contamination issues.

The Glutino pretzels would have gotten me because of the soy but I don't know if that is the case for you.

Pepto Bismal liquid usually puts the burn out really quick for me.

It definitely could be cross contamination, because I am having issues keeping my kitchen area gluten free. I have two teenage boys that cook for themselves, and they aren't always the cleanest...

Thanks for the info!

Some of the gluten-free flours will do that to me. I have to be picky. I have to watch soy (which I know is in the pretzels) and bean flours.

Personally, I wouldn't automatically blame gluten for any problems. I was sicker with the gluten-free products than I ever have been with gluten (same for the others in our house). We have to be very careful which sub we choose which is another reason why I just make my own.

I get sick off of many gluten free products, I am very sensitive though, but I get that horrible heartburn too. Nothing seems to work to get rid of it for me till the whole experience runs its course. I am at the point of knowing I just need to make from scratch all my food.

Exact same for me!

I am so glad that I am not the only one! I guess I will just have to stay away from gluten-free substitute food. And when it makes me as sick to my stomach as I was the last two time I tried it, I don't think it will be that hard.

Thank you!

      Bee balm lipbalm not gluten free

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the fourum, @Grace Good! I cannot find any claims in the Amazon advertising for this company's products to the effect of it being gluten free. Yet, you state in your post that "it says their gluten free". What is "it"? Is there such a statement on the packaging?

      calcium malabsorption that does not resolve with supplementation

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Allias, Do you have low magnesium levels?   "The serum levels of parathyroid hormone and magnesium depend on each other in a complex manner. The secretion of parathyroid hormone by the parathyroid is physiologically controlled by the serum calcium level, but magnesium can exert similar effects. While low levels of magnesium stimulate parathyroid hormone secretion, very low serum concentrations induce a paradoxical block. This block leads to clinically relevant hypocalcemia in severely hypomagnesiemic patients. The mechanism of this effect has recently been traced to an activation of the alpha-subunits of heterotrimeric G-proteins. This activation mimicks activation of the calcium sensing receptor and thus causes inhibition of parathyroid hormone secretion. In addition to the effects of magnesium on parathyroid hormone secretion, parathyroid hormone in turn regulates magnesium homeostasis by modulating renal magnesium reabsorption. The distal convoluted tubule is of crucial importance for parathyroid hormone-regulated magnesium homeostasis." Magnesium and the parathyroid https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12105390/

      Problems

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      I'm guessing it was Manic Depression. I was depressed for 30 years.  It did not go away until I increased vitamin D3 to 10,000 IU (250 mcg) a day.  Three days after going from 8000 IU to 10,000 IU a great dark cloud lifted. Unless you are deficient in Calcium intake from food, don't supplement with calcium.  A high Parathyroid Hormone PTH blood test would indicate insufficient vitamin D causing calcium absorption problems..  High intakes of calcium can be associated with coronary artery calcification. In one study, calcium and vitamin D supplementation accelerated vascular calcification. Thousands of studies of vitamin D supplementation without Calcium have shown that vitamin D is safe even as much as 20,000 IU a day. Vitamin D Is Not as Toxic as Was Once Thought That is confusing. Many gluten processed foods are fortified with vitamins that you no longer get with gluten-free foods.  Doctors don't recognize this as Knitty Kitty mentions. Sorry for the loss of your friend.   I see a pattern where a person with low vitamin D has a stressful situation, mentally or physically like Covid or a cold even allows the immune system to get out of control.  Low vitamin D is common in Celiac Disease.  You seem to fit the pattern. Low choline (eggs and meat) can cause problems digesting fat and Low Thiamine can cause gastrointestinal beriberi.  Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  Low B12 can be the cause of anemial is you are vegan.

      Bee balm lipbalm not gluten free

      I feel super ill from putting in the lip balm. It says their gluten free but I've found a lot of manufacturers do that.  Can companies actually be honest if they aren't entirely sure

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      high levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) can indicate a vitamin D deficiency. The "normal level" of 25(OH) D is 80 ng/ml (200 nmol/L). That is the level our body sets as it's normal limit when we don't limit sunshine.  For some people like me it takes 10,000 IU a day to maintain that.  Lack of enough sun and malabsorption of vitamin D orally.
