Snoring As A 1st Symptom Of Gluten Exposure?


Molecular Dude

Hello everyone.

I'm curious as to how unique my symptoms are. I find that every time I suffer an accidental gluten exposure, usually as a result of eating in a restaurant, that my first symptom is that I will snore and wake up repeatedly that night and the next. My suspicions are always confirmed on days 3-5 after the exposure when I will experience a range of gastrointestinal symptoms. I generally do not snore otherwise, so when I do, I know that I'm going to be miserable a few days later. Do any of you experience anything similar?

Thanks

I have had this happen when I stop and think about it. My nose gets clogged up and then of course I snore and sometimes wake myself up! Otherwise I don't snore as far as I know. At least that is what I have been told.

My misery starts sooner when glutened however. Usually that very night my elbows get sore and I get restless leg syndrome from old scar tissue acting up in my low back. I have to do yoga and piriformis stretches to sleep and at its worst take ibuprofin which always worries me since I have had real kidney issues. Taking bromelain/papain regularly as well as nattokinase really takes down the inflamation (and scar tissue) in a pretty effective and safer way however. I also use valerian before I retire which helps me relax. And then there are of course all those detox herbs I have mentioned elsewhere in a variety of posts--whihc really do help quite a lot. Just have to make sure I get to them which sometimes is difficult unless I am determined.

This is wierd as it happens to me too, but I've never put two and two together until now. I've always had reactions to gluten foods, and now it sounds like snoring is one of them! I suffered from hayfever as a kid, and drinking certain beers used to bring on a hayfever like reaction and I'd snore that night. Wine never seems to bother me.

Now I'm gluten free(ish) my wife might get a good nights sleep!

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:
