I have been gluten  free for approximately 30 years.   In March I started some diarrhea issues, and it continues.  I think it is connected to a generic brand bottled water or it might be my multiple vitamin, my body doesn't need it maybe.  So I quit both of them yesterday.  I haven't had problems in years.  What is the best way to help my body heal, I am on the BRAT diet - bananas, rice, applesauce and toast- gluten free of course.  Are there other foods that can help?

Welcome to the forum, and I'm sorry to hear about your recent issues.

It's very doubtful that bottled water would contain any gluten, but if your gluten-free breads contain xanthan gum, or other gums like guar gum, it could cause IBS issues in some people:

 You may need to keep a food diary and try eliminating certain foods like casein/cow's milk, soy, corn, etc., if the tip above doesn't help

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Be careful with C supplementation. It's ascorbic "acid". Too much can cause stomach and gut irritation.

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Thanks for the info, Its one I've not used before its got Noni Fruit, Astragalus Root in it as a prebiotic. As i never eat fruit it might be a cause.

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      Thanks, @trents, lactose intolerance is different than a reaction to casein. Consuming casein could be causing that continuing antibody reaction causing localized inflammation. Still worth trying a diet without it. Since you mentioned your father passing, you may want to add Benfotiamine. Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine Vitamin B 1 that has been...

      Thanks, @trents, lactose intolerance is different than a reaction to casein.  Consuming casein could be causing that continuing antibody reaction causing localized inflammation.  Still worth trying a diet without it. Since you mentioned your father passing, you may want to add Benfotiamine.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine Vitamin B 1 that has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Tryptophan is helpful, too.  Tryptophan is derived from Niacin Vitamin B 3, and helps repair the intestinal tract.  Tryptophan works well with the amino acid Theanine.  So all three help immensely.   We need additional thiamine when we're emotionally stressed, physically ill and exercise a lot  or do physical labor.  The brain uses the most thiamine of any organ, twenty percent of intake!   What's your fruity probiotic?
