Anyone Feel Worse When They Sleep Late?

I've been finding that regardless of my diet and activities, my stomach seems to be much more tempermental on mornings where I sleep past 9am. Any chance this happens to anyone else? There is a chance other factors are contributing, as my various medicine and meal schedules get thrown off by starting my day later, but for the most part it seems to be only when I sleep late. Is this common? Anyone have any explanations?

Is it that you are sleeping longer when you wake up past 9am? I know that I have to eat frequently. If I don't eat often then I get very hungry and it hurts to eat when I finally do. It takes my body a while to recover when I get to the point of being starving. So, if by sleeping in you are sleeping longer, could that be the case?

If that is not it, then I have no clue other than to say trust your body. It may not make sense, but if you are seeing a pattern, then I would set the alarm for 8:45 and give your body what it needs. I think our bodies are pretty good at sending us signals and even if it isn't convenient it is usually the best thing for us to listen to them.

I have found it helpful to work with my body's natural cycles, rather than try to force it into one which happens to suit my idea of a convenient schedule. I also know that eating too late messes my system up for awhile, and it can be somewhat painful.

Yes, I sleep late on the weekend and was doing so over the holiday, getting more sleep that I needed, but at the same time found without fail that each time I slept in, my stomach was a mess all day. I am definitely considering waking at 8 am everyday and going through the exact same medication and food schedule to make things easier for my body - even though sleeping late is one my favorite things to do.

If you need to catch up on sleep, then try getting to bed earlier and waking up at your regular schedule. :) Of course, I'm not the best example...I am a total night owl...love to stay up late and sleep in late (and pay the price with being tired all the time.)

I've been known to wake up at my usual time, eat something and then turn around and get right back into bed for a few hours if I still need to get some sleep. This seems to work much better for me than disrupting my usual schedule and it also tends to make it easier for me to re-adjust to my regular schedule.

      Okay, Lori, we can agree on the term "gluten-like". My concern here is that you and other celiacs who do experience celiac reactions to other grains besides wheat, barley and rye are trying to make this normative for the whole celiac community when it isn't. And using the term "gluten" to refer to these other grain proteins is going to be confusing to new celiacs trying to figure out what grains they actually do need to avoid and which they don't. Your experience is not normative so please don't proselytize as if it were.

      When I was first Dg’d I researched like mad. One thing I remember from then, which may have changed with advancement in medical science, is that Coeliac is a first generation disease which means either you or your husband need be Coeliac for your daughter to have inherited it. Far as I know, and I’m not a scientist just a victim, the amount of gluten (wheat, rye, or barley) one consumes does not cause a person to contract Coeliac Disease. So if neither of you as her biological parents have Coeliac then your daughter cannot pass any blame should she contract this horrific disease.     It’s humbling, and sometimes I believe GOD allows such as these autoimmune diseases for those who need it most.

      The body reacts to all grain proteins in all grains from my observation. Call it Gluten, Gliadin, which is what they test for commonly, however, I am Celiac and react with dermatitis herpetiformis to corn and the glutenous protein in it is called Zein. They only test for Gliadin. Testing needs to be updated in my opinion. It only take a small parts per million to continuously create systemic inflammation. This is not productive to healing and all grains contain some for gluten like substance. It's called Molecular Mimicry.

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. It's true that many grains contain proteins that are technically classified as "glutens" (like zein in corn and orzenin in rice), but it's important to clarify that these proteins are not the same as the gluten found in wheat, barley, and rye, which contains gliadin and glutenin. These specific proteins are the ones that trigger an autoimmune response in people with celiac disease. For individuals with celiac disease, the primary concern is avoiding gluten from wheat, barley, and rye, as these are the grains scientifically proven to cause damage to the small intestine. While some people with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity may also react to other grains, this is not universal and varies from person to person. For most people with celiac disease, grains like corn and rice are considered safe and are widely recommended as part of a gluten-free diet. That said, you raise an important point about systemic inflammation and individual tolerance. Some people may indeed have sensitivities to other grains or find that eliminating additional grains helps them feel better. However, it’s crucial to differentiate between celiac disease, which requires strict avoidance of wheat, barley, and rye, and other conditions or sensitivities that may involve broader dietary restrictions.

      I disagree, Lori. Gluten is a particular protein, not a category of proteins. It is found in wheat, barley and rye. Other cereal grains have proteins that resemble gluten to one degree or another but are not gluten. Gluten is gluten. Avenin is avenin. But yes, it is true, that informally speaking, some have used the term "gluten" to refer to the proteins found in these other cereal grains. It's like the term "kleenex" has come to refer to all facial tissues.
