Alcohol sweeteners are usually gluten-free, but they are a very common cause of IBS-like symptoms in many people. We have an article on this topic that will be published on Celiac.com this Saturday.

Is there a connection between histaminintolerance and celiac too?

Scott Adams Grand Master

There is some evidence to suggest a potential connection between histamine intolerance and celiac disease, although the relationship is not fully understood. Histamine intolerance occurs when there is an imbalance between histamine levels in the body and the body's ability to break down histamine. This can lead to symptoms such as headaches, digestive issues, skin rashes, and respiratory problems.

Celiac disease, on the other hand, is an autoimmune condition triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. While celiac disease primarily affects the digestive system, it can also cause systemic symptoms and affect other parts of the body.

Some researchers have suggested that individuals with celiac disease may be more prone to histamine intolerance due to disruptions in the gut microbiome and increased intestinal permeability (leaky gut) associated with celiac disease. Additionally, some foods that are high in histamine, such as aged cheeses and fermented foods, may also contain gluten, which could exacerbate symptoms in individuals with celiac disease.

However, more research is needed to fully understand the relationship between histamine intolerance and celiac disease, as well as the mechanisms underlying any potential connection.

      I have been experiencing debilitating OCD symptoms for the past two or three years and I'm really interested in getting on medication so that it can stop ruining my life....  I have an appointment with a general doctor December 13th to talk about prescribing medication but I am extremely concerned about gluten content.  What OCD medications  have been confirmed by the manufacturer as gluten free? I would really need a 100 percent guarantee that the medication was gluten free to take it. MY OCD manifests best with the gluten thing. Constantly worrying about if something possibly has gluten. That's one of my issues. So this is like a catch 22...  PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME WITH SOME SOLID INFORMATION ABOUT GLUTEN FREE OCD MEDICATIONS COMMENT BELOW. THANK YOU!

      Are you on acid blocking medication like a proton pump inhibitor or something? I mean for acid reflux.

      My daughter was recently diagnosed with Celiac; my results are questionable and I have an appointment scheduled to see a GI doctor to further discuss. I have so many odd, ongoing symptoms that could possibly be gluten related, although who really knows!! I am considering going gluten-free whether a Celiac diagnosis is confirmed or not, just to see if there are any improvements with my dermatitis, mouth sores, aching and chronically cold hands, tingling in hands and feet, random joint pains, etc.  What are the advantages vs. disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis? For instance, will it affect life insurance policies, medical insurance rates? What have you personally experienced with or without an official diagnosis? I'm almost afraid there will be more hinderances and hardships if an official diagnosis is given, but maybe I am way off base and missing the positives altogether. We are located in the US. Thank you!

      Thank you all for the reply posts.  Yes, the constipation has abated.  I am not sure whether its due to having changed to a gluten-free diet or not, but I do think that there is a reasonable correlation.  I know that I will get over this eventually, but I am finding it hard not to lament missing all of my favorite foods that contain gluten.  Certainly, my health comes first... I guess I never realized how many things contain some element of wheat.  My sister has been living with celiac disease for most of her life, so I have someone who will share her favorite recipes. The next step for me will be my appointment with a Gastroenterologist for the Celiac Team... I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving!
