Brain fog

Hello,

I cheated over the weekend and ate quite a bit of gluten. I felt fine the next 2 days but 3 days later I’m feeling intense brain fog and decreased mood. Is it possible to feel symptoms days after eating gluten such as I did?

Yes, it is definitely possible. Some people seem to have delayed symptoms, while others feel ill right away, and then there are some with no symptoms.

If you are going to cheat, which I would not recommend to anyone with celiac disease, you'd better get GliadinX enzymes (a sponsor here), which have been shown in studies to break down SMALL AMOUNTS of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches your intestines. You can scale up how many capsules you take, but again, it's better not to cheat, and they are really designed for small amounts of cross-contamination, like you might get when eating a gluten-free meal in a regular restaurant that also serves foods with gluten.

      I have a couple of questions. What si the difference between NCGS and Celiac? I have had a rash that typical rash meds could not get rid of and recently realized gluten is likely as going gluten free has relieved the itchiness and the rash is starting to dissipate and is less, not gone, but maybe headed that way. The oldest parts of the rash that are gone left my skin a darker color. Are rashes associated with NCGS.  I’m fairly certain gluten is the culprit for this. Is the rash a distinguishable feature of celiac?

      NCGS Diagnosis

      Hi Celiac has been ruled out with a biopsy. I am so sensitive that I cannot eat most processed food. One bite sends me into three to five days of a disabling shoulder, neck, headache, stabbing & burning toes, ankles, knuckles, and wrists. I finally discovered that a whole food and gluten free approach has given much needed relief after years of agony. My nerves can finally repair  without the threat of inflaming over and over any more. The cognitive symptoms I have experienced are frightening to say the least. This is totally reproducible with food that has residual wheat on it much less actually eat wheat directly. They don't even know if this is caused by gluten. My reaction is innate only. I get...

      Did you look up your meds on the government website I shared? It should list all additives.

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
