New Allergies?

I will be celebrating my 1 yr anniversary of being gluten free and my celiac diagnosis. I have recently noticed that I am having more and more symptoms similar to being glutenized. Except I am having them all the time. Sever bloating, horrible gas, tummy trouble, exhaustion etc. except I can't pinpoint it to any one thing. It's been creeping up on me for a while, but I just realized how bad it's gotten, when every day I'm going to bed by 9pm. If it is another food allergy/sensitivity - where do I start to look? Should I eliminate dairy? Or soy? Or sugar? Or corn? Is it weird to have this happen after almost a yr gluten free? I feel like I'm doing something wrong, but no idea what it could be. I'm pretty sure everything I'm eating is gluten-free.

Hi Courtney,

I don't think you're doing anything wrong, hon, but I do see many people report this same thing often.

It could be gut flora imbalance (do you take probiotics?) or the most common additional intolerance: dairy.

I'm just suggesting something here: take out dairy first, see if it helps?

If you continue to have gastro issues, perhaps you should see your GI doc.

Sometimes, people have concurrent issues with celiac and they are easily treatable, if discovered by testing.

Also, some follow up lab work might be a good idea. Just some suggestions.

Hi, I had a lot of issues like you after being gluten-free for about a year and they ended up being due to a soy intolerance. I agree with IrishHeart to eliminate dairy first, though, because it anecdotally seems to be the most common intolerance in celiacs. If not dairy, then consider soy and so on...Good luck and I hope you feel better soon! We need to remember that this is a lifelong autoimmune disease that we have.

I have been gluten free for 4 years now and I am now noticing severe reactions to dairy. :-(

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      4.5 years into diagnosis, eating gluten-free and still struggling: would love support, tips, & stories

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
