Sleeping Issues?

hi. i'm wondering if anyone has this kind of problem. i have 3 toddler kids, all gluten intolerant, who all don't sleep well if the temperature of their room isn't 'just right.' that is, me and my husband can sleep in the room that's about 70 degrees but the kids can't sleep in the same room because they are uncomfortable. they seem to be extremely temperature sensitive and it seems they are unable to have their bodies adjust to the room temperature well. for example, last night our house temp was 69, but they all woke up cranky as all hell saying they were 'too hot.' but my husband and i were fine. does anyone have this experience? ??? my nights are not easy trying to adjust to their body temperature.

thanks in advance!

I have wondered about this myself. My 9 year old doesn't have the problem with sleeping, but is very sensitive to anything hot. Her showers would make me shiver and any hot drinks need to be cooled down to tepid or else she complains they are too hot. Not sure if it is a celiac thing or just extra sensitive skin.

Well, I do know children without gluten problems who are this sensitive to temperature, but it does seem curious that all three are having an issue.

However, thyroid issues might apply - they can make the temperature regulation out of wack.

Also, allergies, intolerances, and sensitivities to food could cause issues, too. I've been finding out that for some of the intolerances, it can interfere with how your body absorbs tryptophan. Which means that emotions and sleep are out of wack the next couple of days as your body can't make enough seratonin and melatonin.

We never realized our kids had food issues, but after going gluten free, we found out that there were a few more hiding in there too - only realized after a food log. When my daughter gets her bad foods, she always has a hard time sleeping, and the temperature tends to be one of the things that really bugs her as she can't get to sleep.

Don't know if that applies, but since they have one intolerance, it might very well be they have some milder ones that are simply causing just enough damage to affect mood, but not the gut, eh?

good luck!

      Gluten Free Beer - The Enzymatic Hydrolyzation Process Problem

      Jason, I have a bone to pick with your terminology. There is "gluten intolerance" which I believe is synonymous with celiac disease and then there is "gluten sensitivity" which comes from Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or NCGS for short. It is true, however, that there is still a lot of inconsistency in the use of these terms.

      Medicinal mushrooms 🍄

      I can’t say this will work for everyone but for me the difference is incredible so might be worth trying. I’ve never been diagnosed celiac but via an elimination diet I realised I can’t eat any lectins, gluten soy and oats are particularly problematic. If I eat them I’m in bed for a week, then heavy bleeding and extreme pain for another, followed by a third week of bleeding on and off. My skin was a mess and it snowed when I brushed my hair. Since taking reishi and cordyceps mushroom tincture I can’t believe the difference, I’ve had a lot of help from this site so I want to return the favour. I took the tincture for my guts but the most apparent effect is that I feel like my brain works again, I can’t begin to describe how wonderful it is to be able to achieve basic things, I’ve barely been able to organise getting out of bed for so long, it feels like I haven’t been hit over the head with a mallet for the first time in years. Then I glutened myself, not necessarily gluten as so many things wipe me out but definitely ate something I shouldn’t have, I took a treble dose of the tincture and almost immediately felt much better so continued with the increased dose and three days (not weeks) later was back to feeling great, no bleeding involved. My skin is better than I can remember it ever being, I feel great 😊. I spend £1.50 a day on these but it’s worth every penny, I hope this helps someone else out there reading this. I wish I’d known about them 20 years ago. best wishes everyone 🍄

      Endoscopy

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Given your history of a high TTG (167) that decreased to 16 on a gluten-free diet, along with genetic confirmation of celiac disease, it’s likely the negative biopsy is a false negative due to not eating gluten before the endoscopy. Gluten is necessary to trigger the intestinal damage seen in celiac disease, and avoiding it can lead to healing and a normal biopsy despite ongoing immune activity (reflected in your still-elevated TTG). The inflammation observed during the endoscopy (“diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa”) could be residual damage, mild ongoing inflammation, or another condition like peptic duodenitis, but it’s consistent with celiac disease in context. Continued positive blood markers suggest ongoing gluten exposure, possibly from cross-contamination or hidden sources. Strict adherence to a gluten-free diet and follow-up testing are key to managing symptoms and reducing inflammation. Discuss these findings with your doctor to confirm the diagnosis and refine your dietary approach. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Yes, it sounds like great progress, but what was the time frame between the two endoscopies?
