    I woke up in a bad mood today and have a bit of a tummy ache right now. It's the afternoon. Knowing my body, the symptoms of the burger bun should have started to clear so I'm thinking the Weetabix is starting to show through.

    Okay, thanks Tarnal!

    Thanks for the reply, saint! I had been gluten free for about three and a half months since May or June but I went back to my doctors to get an in-depth review of my celiac/wheat allergy testing and he said the numbers were not even borderline. So I went back to eating whatever I wanted and my activity level dropped that same week. I felt more tired by the...

    Does Weetabix contain a different kind of gluten or something because I had some but didn't have any reaction. I think I have gluten intolerance rather than Celiac because I have noticed that my symptoms can develop a few hours after eating but thought you people might have the most knowledge about this. I had a burger in a bun last night to test and I came...

    First of all, I want to apologise for submitting another post on this issue soon after because I didn't think to look at other forums to see whether my post was moved. Anyway, I am still quite new to this. So, flavoring ingredients can contain wheat/gluten? Okay. And that's interesting about the strawberries coming into contact with wheat before being...

    Does anybody know whether a specific food or drink's label HAS to state whether that food or drink was made in a factory that contains gluten? The reason I ask is because I bought strawberry flavoured milk yesterday from a store here in the UK and I came down with anxiety and shortness of breath again. I know some of you may say that I could be allergic...

    Well, I did lots of research about all this in the past few days and narrowed it down to either a possible B3 or B1 deficiency. Firstly, I tried B3 foods, such as chicken and felt no change. Today, I tried B1 and felt the same effect that I got from milk ie more energy, much less anxiety (I experienced this a lot!) my mood is much more happy and I feel...

    Hi everyone, this may sound strange but I've recently made the discovery that milk enhances my mood and provides me with energy almost instantly after I've drank it. This has been happening now for a short while now. When I was accidentally got glutened last week the milk didn't really take any effect, but now that it's been a few days, whatever is...

    Yes, I'm from the UK so it's a British version, but I did say it was the supermarket's own brand, not the proper brand of Pepsi. There has been ONE good thing about this experience! At least now I know I'm definetely Celiac because my blood tests came back negative, so I didn't know whether I was just allergic to wheat itself. Now I know the test was...

    Thanks for the well wishes, guys! I'm passing the bottle of Pepsi to friends of mine. There's still half left so there is no point in letting it go to waste. I'll be sure to read bottles of soda now in future, too. I hope you guys have learnt from this for your own well being, too.

    It says on the bottle that it contains barley gluten in the allergy section on the label. It's a supermarket's own brand type. I can take a pic to prove it if you wish? I'll upload it to my photobucket.
  13. speedy2056
    I've been moody in the past couple of days as well as feeling confused and today I've just made the discovery that the bottle of diet Pepsi that I have been consuming this week has barley gluten. Man, this stuff is in everything!!

    I read on Google today that B12 is most easily absorbed by drinking milk. I think that's coincidental considering that in my original post I talked about feeling better after drinking milk!! Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Yeah, I'll probably ask for an appointment to see my doctor next week about my vitamin levels. I think I...
  15. speedy2056
    Yeah, I knew about sometimes it being a necessity to have levels checked but I haven't so far. I may book an appointment with my doctor to confirm they are low. But I do think it's too much of a coincidence that I feel much better once I have had foods with B12. I have had sublingual B12 before. It may be time for me to purchase another bottle. Thanks!

    Well, as I've always said in my posts, my blood test came back negative so I diagnosed myself as gluten or wheat intolerant. Anyway, I've noticed that every time I drank a glass of milk in the past few days my energy levels had risen soon after. I studied on Google about the importance of B12 and how it can give people energy. In fact, B12 is given to...
  17. speedy2056
    I agree with Cara in this thread. I just read on a website after doing a bit of Googling that symptoms can occur after an accumulation of gluten/wheat food. I think that may be the reason why I didn't feel much. Karen, it wasn't my intention to be "gluten lite." As I am new to this, it was simply an accident that I started consuming the chicken. I had...
  18. speedy2056
    I think the majority of ppl misunderstand. I already had the blood test which came back negative so I diagnosed myself as gluten/wheat intolerant, as eating wheat/gluten normally makes me fatigued, anxious along with some physical symptoms. But yesterday I accidentally ate gluten/wheat (well, I think so!) because the chicken was coated. And I ate chocolate...

    Thanks for the tips and encouragement! It's much appreciated! I'll be sure to follow all those instructions.
  20. speedy2056
    I've been on the gluten/wheat free diet for 12 days, although I did go gluten/wheat free a couple of days before my blood test (which was negative) before going back on it since I was told to in case I screw up the results. Anyway, today I went to a family bar and had chicken which was coated. I didn't realise until I began to eat it! I guess I'm still...

    Perhaps you did a lot of damage to your intestines that you are not feeling any positive effects just yet? Different websites have given different time spans, but the average time of healing is between 2 and 4 years if you have done lots of damage. Stick with it! You know that if you eat wheat/gluten again that you will just get all sick and then you'll damage...
  22. speedy2056
    Well, my brain fog lifted very quickly when I went on the diet last week. It has returned to a VERY MINOR extent, but nothing anywhere near to what it was before. I got a feeling this is why I'm having some trouble with thinking of words again. The various benefits (no more bloating, better memory, more energy, etc) are all too good to give up, so I won't...

    Ever since my anxiety came back after being on the gluten free diet, yesterday I considered candida for myself. I may do an anti-candida diet for a month and see what happens, but I love my fruit! And weekends will be hard in not being able to have a treat or two.
  24. speedy2056
    Thank you for the reply! Well, anxiety has been good for me today. Even though I have been anxious for many years, ever since I have gone gluten free I have felt that I have now more control over it than ever, and I still feel that I have that control now. Yeah, the word thing has become a little bit of an annoyance again but hopefully it will pass....
  25. speedy2056
    Well, unfortunately, just over a week being on the diet, again I'm having difficulty finding some words and I am experiencing anxiety and a drop in energy again. I still have better energy than before but not as much as I did last week. I've had anxiety since I were 15 and I cannot believe it's hit me again! I just hope it's withdrawal symptoms because I...
