rancid beef sweats during sleep

I'm not 100% sure if it's just beef, but when I eat a wendy's lettuce wrap burger or a steak or something with a lot of beef I'll wake up the next morning drenched in sweat that smells bad enough to knock me out again. I'm curious if this is just poor fat metabolism or a beef intolerance. my stomach and abdomen feel fine, good even.

As an aside, have you inquired about how Wendy's cooks the beef patty for that lettuce wrap burger? Are they cooking it on the same grill that they use for things like breaded chicken patties?

only way it could be a risk is if they lied to my face, in which case THEIR face is the next thing going on that grill LOL.

but no i have history of this happening when i eat plain steak, also used to choke on dry aged steak

Do you get these smelly sweat episodes when eating other beef products? Does this only occur at night? It is odd that you have no GI distress in conjunction with these episodes.

yes but burgers never did it before i cut gluten. it used to happen when i ate steak, i've always had a small person problem of overreating protein thinking it would make me bigger. also the smell seems to bother me more than everyone else, I even had a girlfriend about 7 years back who noted I seemed to have a lot more "energy" when i ate beef. she noted that because later on i had a lot less "energy" because she depleted my "energy" through unreasonable demands.

Does this effect present itself with other meats, eggs, dairy, soy . . . other things high in protein?

There is something called "meat sweats" but it doesn't seem to fit very well with what you describe: https://www.healthline.com/health/meat-sweats#5

yeah the primary problem is how much the sweat stinks. i know when im intolerant to stuff i typically get awoken by diarrhoea at 3 am

MisterSeth Enthusiast

is this possibly a symptom of recovery? i only ask because it seems strange how no one has said anything or looked at me funny even though the smell puts me off. does normal metabolism of beef make people stink?

trents Grand Master

No. Eating beef doesn't make most people stink. But because of individual body chemistry, eating certain things can produce odors that only some people can detect. A classic example is the peculiar odor some people report when urinating after eating asparagus. Only 25% of the population can detect that odor. There's no difference in the urine after eating asparagus from one person to another. The difference is in who can smell it. From what you have shared, it sounds much the same in your situation. You smell it but you say others don't.

Well, my goodness.  DO you really need to eat beef to survive?  Give the cows (and yourself) a break. 

meat in general, yes, not 100% sure if its all meats or fatty foods or what causes this. the choking is the only worrysome symptom but thats not happening now and the last time it happened I was just in the hospital for a severe allergic reaction to dust mites, didn't know letting mold grow on steak to give it flavour was common practice, I'm probably allergic to that too. 

can't survive on a vegetarian diet though, i've tried replacing my protein intake with nuts and legumes many times, its like my body has an absorption cap and i just start pooping them out.

      I suggest you eliminate dairy from your son's diet next.  Cow's milk protein, Casein, can trigger tTg IgA antibody production, the same as gluten, because casein contains segments of proteins that resemble gluten protein segments.   Mucosal reactivity to cow's milk protein in coeliac disease https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1810502/ I cannot consume dairy products.  Some people find they can tolerate A2 dairy without a reaction. Corn is another frequently hard to tolerate food because the protein zein in corn also resembles the protein structure of gluten.   Do research in Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and TTFD thiamine.  Taking TTFD really can make a dramatic difference, speaking from personal experience. https://hormonesmatter.com/energy-deficiency-asd/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      It sounds like you're doing everything right with your gluten-free diet, yet still experiencing significant discomfort, which must be frustrating. Since your stool sample came back normal but symptoms persist, pushing for further investigation—like a colonoscopy or biopsy—is a reasonable next step. You might also want to discuss the possibility of additional conditions, such as IBS, microscopic colitis, or other inflammatory issues, with your doctor. Tracking your symptoms, diet, and triggers in detail could help identify patterns. Don’t hesitate to advocate for yourself—if your current doctor isn’t addressing your concerns, seeking a second opinion or a referral to a gastroenterologist could be beneficial. You’re right to seek answers, and I hope you find relief soon. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Hi all, I was diagnosed with coeliac in August 2020. This was via a blood test, as it was during COVID, so I’ve never had a biopsy or colonoscopy or anything like that.    I have been following a gluten-free diet since and would expect to feel much better, however, I am still experiencing issues with my bowels. Very strict, so I know there’s no cross contamination etc.    It usually seems to be after I have had a bowel movement, my bowels feel on fire, cramping, sore and very uncomfortable. I know it isn’t normal, and isn’t right and I have saw a doctor before, I provided a stool sample and apparently everything was fine- but I know it isn’t.    I am just wondering if anyone else experiences this? What would you advise I do in regards to seeing a doctor, I was thinking of asking for a colonoscopy or biopsy, I just want to know what is going on and why I’m still experiencing this. Any advice is welcome and appreciated.. thank you.

      Thanks. My son has been on B2 for two to three years now. I found literature about B1 earlier and put him on a B1 supplement, but not thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide specifically. He also gets D and Magnesium. He goes to his doctor in June and I am going to ask for bloodwork to look for any deficiencies. What I suspect is that he is having a gluten-like reaction to the proteins in other grains. It is well known that a small percentage of celiac patients react to the protein in oats. Oats are in gluten-free Oreos, so we removed them. He got a little better. The science with oats is pretty solid. My son's nutritionist knows about it and it is easily found in PubMed. I suspect my son is reacting to something else. The next thing that I only just removed was corn, at least things with corn protein. I need to give that a couple of months. If that doesn't work, I will try to replace his cheese with goat-milk cheese, although that will be hard.    My son was migraine free for over a year on a strict gluten-free diet before this past fall. I can test his foods for gluten and I have given in to diet rigidity. He eats my homemade refried beans and rice for lunch every day, so his rigid diet contains pretty healthy components. Given his antibody levels (tTG-IgA very low) and that I tested everything under the son that he ingests when his migraines returned and nothing tested positive for gluten, I think he really is gluten-free. So my personal working hypothesis is that he is having a reaction to a similar protein, one in another grain. However, the neurologist sees migraines come and go in lots of normal people, so it might just be that he is now having multiple (3-10) migraines monthly and it is hormonal or weather-related or something that is entirely distinct from an antibody reaction. I just would like them to go away again, as would he.    Thanks again! Elizabeth

      Welcome to the forum, @jamiet06, Yes, it does point in that direction.  Your report says "Correlation with clinical findings and results of serological studies is recommended"  is saying you should undergo a gluten challenge and be tested for antibodies associated with Celiac Disease.   These antibodies are produced in celiac disease in response to gluten, but you have to eat generous amounts of gluten for the antibodies to show up in the bloodstream. A gluten challenge means you eat 10 grams or more of gluten  (4 to 6 slices of gluten containing bread or equivalent or more) per day for a minimum of two weeks.
