Hello everyone, i work out and pretty often i get my stomach upset after workout, i have no idea why it happens maybe because of intensity.

First time my stomach issues took place was when i started my workout, i was a little boy back then. My diagnosis was “suspected to celiac decease” and yeah while i am on my diet i feel good. but why does it still happen when i work out? is it somehow related to my celiac decease?

i have already tried taking some pills to stop it, they help but it has only temporary  effects 

my doctor recommended enzymes to me for a month and i took them, nothing has changed i still sometimes get my stomach upset due to my workout

It's not clear from your post whether or not you're gluten-free, but clearly if you have celiac disease and are not 100% gluten-free that would be your first step to avoid diarrhea. You may also need to eliminate oats, as some celiacs cannot tolerate them.

If you are gluten-free and still have this issue, perhaps you have additional food intolerance issues, perhaps to dairy, corn, eggs, soy, etc., and you may need to eliminate them one at at time and keep a food diary to see if there is a relationship.

Last, you may want to change your workout, and do less intense workouts and slowly increase them to see if there is some threshold you are crossing that might cause this.

thank you for your input 🙏🏻

you know, i have no clue if it is celiac disease because no one ever had it from my family.

but the thing is that i have got tested, everything was okay except villus. back then even without any sport i used to have diarrhoea every day but the diet started helping me recover a bit. that’s why my doctor said that she proved it was celiac disease.

i was always lactose intolerant but gluten intolerance appeared  a few years ago.

trying to gain weight i have bought “Carnivor” protein based on beef protein there’s no lactose and gluten despite this it causes stomach discomfort.

i have no idea what’s wrong i should’ve been totally recovered taking into consideration how much time i am on the diet.

about eggs etc. i don’t think they have anything to do with it since i eat them only sometimes not too often. i know that banana may cause some discomfort as well i do not eat it

Hi! 
What you described almost completely coincides with what is happening now with my husband! For almost a year we have been trying to find out what this is connected with, we have tried to exclude food groups from the diet one by one, but there has been no improvement. He also drank enzymes that did not help him, refused lactose, gluten-containing products, eggs, raw vegetables, and no result. Now he has greatly reduced the intensity of training, let's look at his condition after a while.
I hope you were able to figure out what was the cause of your problem! Good luck!

Hello, thanks. Actually I kept doing what I was doing what’s more I have increased the intensity. I don’t suffer now as I have. yeah sometimes it still happens but rarely. I stopped training abs. I guess my organism has gotten used to it:). Good luck.

Thiamine insufficiency will cause these symptoms.  

Thiamine is needed for energy production and digestion of meats as well as carbohydrates.

Intense training will use up lots of Thiamine.  Supplementing with Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine that helps intestinal healing and working out.

Here's some interesting articles....

Effect of physical activity on thiamine, riboflavin, and vitamin B-6 requirements

Effects of thiamine supplementation on exercise-induced fatigue

The effects of endurance training and thiamine supplementation on anti-fatigue during exercise

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4241913/

 

Taking a B Complex supplement and extra Thiamine, Benfotiamine and Thiamax will help.

I like Life Extension Benfotiamine.

Thiamax is a brand of TTFD (thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide), that is wonderful for brain fog and anxiety.

Both are available at Amazon.

      What do my test results mean?

      By jmiller93 · Posted

      I’m have a vitamin D deficiency. I’m still waiting on a qualitative fat test to see if I have malabsorption.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @jmiller93, Some of us are seronegative and don't test positive on tTg IgA tests.  Anemia, diabetes, and Thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives on Celiac panels.  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Iron? Thiamine?  Vitamin B12?  Vitamin D?  Only one Celiac markers is needed to develop the active disease.   I agree a gluten free diet trial is worth a try.

      strange symptoms/ diagnosis accuracy

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @HWB, Have you been checked for SIBO?  Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth will cause constipation and chemically breath.   The best way to get rid of SIBO is to go on a ketogenic/Paleo diet, like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet.  It starves out the carbohydrate loving bacteria and allows good bacteria to repopulate the small intestine.   The SIBO bacteria can communicate with the brain along the gut-brain axis, making you crave carbs, and in return, the SIBO bacteria can mess with your immune system by lowering inflammation and producing endorphins.  So, it's no wonder you feel better eating sugar.   I took high dose (500-1000 mg/day) Benfotiamine (Thiamine) which promotes intestinal healing and helps keep bacterial in check.  Thiamine and Benfotiamine are safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  High doses (500-1000 mg) every day are required to get results.  The body responds differently to high doses.  Got rid of my SIBO like this.  It was tough, but Celiac makes you stronger.

      strange symptoms/ diagnosis accuracy

      Try whole milk yogurt.  I eat Stoneyfield vanilla.  Add fruit if you like.  Cultured Pasteurized Organic Whole Milk, Pectin, Vitamin D3. Live Active Cultures S. thermophilus, L. bulgaricus, Bifidobacterium BB-12®, L. acidophilus, L. paracasei and L. rhamnosus. Looking at the NO Fat Greek Yogurt, consider that to give the mouth feel of real yogurt ahd Manufacterers of no fat yogurt add various processed ingrediant that many Celiacs have digestive issues with such as gums.  Consider it processed food.  Fat is an important factor in our appestat to tell us we've eaten enough.  Remove fat and we eat more.  Compared to whole milk yogurt Chobani no fat greek yogurt has a cardboard mouth feel. Chobani no fat greek: Cultured Nonfat Milk, Cane Sugar, Black Cherries, Water, Fruit Pectin, Guar Gum, Natural Flavors, Cherry Juice Concentrate, Locust Bean Gum, Lemon Juice Concentrate. 6 Live and Active Cultures: S. Thermophilus, L. Bulgaricus, L. Acidophilus, Bifidus, L. Casei, and L. Rhamnosus Funny that since recommending low fat diets in the 1970's the US population has gone from 15% to 50% obese.

      Nighttime Soiling (5 year old)

      By sh00148 · Posted

      Just had my daughter diagnosed and am currently awaiting blood test results for my son. As well as many bowel issues, mostly loose stools with mucus and lots of gassy moments sometimes leading to leaning stool, he has recently soiled himself in his sleep twice. He has been toilet trained for a long time, but is not waking up with the poo. It’s not just a little, it’s a lot.    We have had to make an appointment re his blood test results next week so will find out if it is coeliac too but I’m just wondering whether anyone else has had this? Ive read online that it could mean he’s constipated, but he poos all the time and it’s often soft, never hard.
