4 months gluten free, still bloating?

Hello all!

Update on my gluten free journey. I am 4 months in and I am beginning to get my energy back, granted some days are better than others, of course. 

I have been on a consistent intake of multi's, probiotics, l-glutamine, D and Magnesium.

I am curious when you all started to see improvements in your bloating? Mine has improved, but, it is definitely still inflamed and one of my more apparent symptoms. Obviously, DECADES of gluten exposure will not go away over night. But, I am curious of your experiences with this particular symptom on your journeys. 

Thank you!!

Meg.

In my case bloating went away in the 6-12 month time period after going gluten-free.

Of course bloating can be caused by many things, so it is possible that you have an additional food intolerance, for example to milk, oats, corn, etc., so you may want to keep a food diary to see if you can find a connection. Not enough or too much fiber can also cause such issues...usually too much.

      Metabolic Meals delivery service

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      I am considering using the Metabolic Meals delivery service. They claim to be 100% gluten free. Has anybody used this service? If so, have you had any reactions? Is the food worth the price? Thanks, any input is appreciated

      If you are looking for a good diet to follow to start your real recovery Dr Fuhrman's Eat to Live, 6 Week Plan is a good choice. Dr. Fuhrman’s 6-Week Nutritarian Diet Quick Start Dr Fuhrman is a Cardiologist who began the Nutritarian diet.  Helped me immensely with understanding nutrition.  Adapt it to GFD. If you can find them Drs Fuhrman, Amen, Davis and Hyman all had recurring annual specials on South Florida Public Service TV.

      @hilly Sorry as this is a blind post as I have a lot to do today and haven't read the entire thread.  But I had bad bloating for a while, and at my gastroenterologist's suggestion after a three week trial of going entirely dairy free  I found relief.   I reintroduced dairy gradually and am pretty much OK with it now.  I also found heavy iron supplementation added greatly to bloating.  For me, bloating gets to me either in my lower gut or in my stomach and upper back, and I once thought I might be having a heart attack the pressure was so immense.  I then remembered I'd taken some iron that morning.   If you are on iron, you may wish to try a different supplement.  My GP put me onto much more gentle iron fumarate tablets at one point,  suggesting I took them an hour before breakfast, with water, and that really helped. Also, take a look at the low FODMAP diet.  Although intended for sufferers of IBS, it suggests foods that can help lessen bloating.

      Thanks for drawing our attention to this, Scott.  I have no idea about this in the UK, I think I need to do some more homework!
