Ohh The Pain..in My Muscles? Why?

Okay I'm super sensetive I haven't eaten dairy I've been good with not cheating I've even bought soy free earth balance and dayia cheese in case I feel like dairy so I don't cheat(they aRe not the same but soso) I've gotten a little better every now and then I slip up(by accident) and get sick. I have all these new symptoms I can't tell now if its something I'm sensetive to or a small amount of cc cause I can definaty tell when its full out wheat. I work out about 4 times a weekytrying to gain muscle fast and I like that I get abs fast cause I'm skinny like a stick plus it relieves my stress but why do my muscle hurt sooooooooooo bad. I ate something(I don't know if its oil or cc) small abdominal pain and bad d..I normally get extreme abdominal pain from wheat and my muscles are on fire it honestly hurts sooooo bad this can't be from being sore from the gym I wanna scream and cry I can barley read what I'm typing its taking me like an hour to type it. I feel like I get new symptoms everytime I get sick but this one I got a few times and I can't figure out why it hurts my muscles. How do u tell the difference between sensetivities (I know I have a million) and cc? If it was cc would it be as bad as when I eAt something with wheat? Usually I can tell but I don't know anymore its so confusing and why does it hurt my muscles

Okay, I'm guessing here. First, it's possible that the weight machines you used were used previously by people who had eaten gluten....in other words, you got cc'd. However, I think it's more likely that you are experiencing excess lactic acid buildup in your muscles. This can happen with poor oxygenation of the cells (either from iron anemia or another cause). The way to alleviate this is to take a particular ratio of Omega 6s to 3s (I kid you not!). Take 1/2 teaspoon of organic flaxseed oil along with 3/4 teaspoon of either grapeseed oil or safflower oil in a small glass of juice. If you do this daily, you will NOT have excess lactic acid buildup in your muscles. My reference for this advice is Brian Peskin's book, "The Hidden Story of Cancer." I've been doing this for four years, and I haven't had muscle pain in all that time (and I used to suffer terribly).

I agree that it's excess lactic acid in the muscles but this is perfectly normal for someone who works out on a regular basis. I weight train and there are many days when my muscles are sore, especially when the weight is increased during the work-out. I view this as a good thing because it means you are doing something with your muscles. I have a high tolerance to pain so still go about my daily routine, no matter how sore I feel. If anyone is having that much difficulty with soreness, they may be working out too much and not giving their body enough rest in between.

I used to think that muscle soreness after weightlifting or other strenuous activities was normal, but I came to accept that I was wrong. Soreness indicates that there is excess lactic acid...and this means that there is LOW OXYGENATION of the cells. This is very bad. Unless you read Brian Peskin's book, you will consider muscle soreness after exercise to be normal when it is, in fact, NOT normal. If low oxygenation continues, some cells of the body will begin to turn cancerous because the body does this as a defense mechanism when the oxygen level has fallen below 70%. In today's world, with pollution, poor water, poor food, etc., it's easy to fall below 70%...and then our bodies defend themselves by turning cells cancerous to allow the important organs to continue to function with lower oxygen. Because cancer cells are anaerobic (don't need oxygen), if more cancer cells are present, the more important organs' cells can survive on the remaining oxygen. Muscle soreness after exercise indicates that your body is operating at lower than 70% oxygen. Celiacs who suffer from iron anemia and B-12 deficiency tend to suffer from low oxygenation, so it's very important to take the oils in the proper ratio to boost that oxygen rate. If you don't believe the Omega oil ratio I provided above, please read the book--it explains everything. I provided the amounts that you should take to save you money on purchasing the book, but I can understand why you might question whether it will do any good or not. However, if you take the oils in the amounts I described, you'll be amazed at how you'll no longer suffer from lactic acid buildup.

I speak from experience. I had an extremely low ferritin level for three years, and at the end of that time, I ended up with cancer. When I read Peskin's book, all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place. After suffering since birth with muscle soreness, I haven't had sore muscles in more than four years following his oil ratio formula--and I'm big on weightlifting, running, and various exercise routines.

I speak from experience.

Thanks so much for this info, I had this happen just this week and wondered what was going on. I wanted to clerify the mixture. Is it 1/2 tsp flaxseed oil and 3/4 safflour? I didn't understand the Omega 6 to 3, could you explain? Thanks!

I get muscle pain from glutening too, and I'm also super sensitive. I went on a 20 mile bike ride this past weekend at a good pace and had the same problem. I had gotten glutened a couple of days earlier. Hydrating helps a lot. I couldn't sleep due to the pain and just kept getting up and drinking another glass of water. I was better by morning. I also stretched before bed and that helped a lot too. For me, it's a different kind of pain than lactic acid sore muscles. It's more all over.

AVR1962,

The ratio of Omega 6s to 3s should be anywhere from 1:1 to 2.5:1. Therefore, you would need to take 1/2 teaspoon of organic flaxseed oil along with 3/4 teaspoon of organic safflower (or grapeseed) oil in a glass of juice.

Not only will your muscles not hurt, you'll be able to work out harder and longer.

      I've heard RO water is bad, too.   Distilled water has all the minerals distilled out of it, so it will pull minerals out of your bones, too.  I only use distilled water to fill up my clothes iron so it won't get mineral deposits inside and quit working. I drink mineral or spring water.

      Scott.  Thank you for your reply. I'm still having symptoms, but significantly better.  I will go back to batch cooking and freezing vegetables.  I have had success with Pict Sweet frozen, single item (not mixed) vegetables.  My Kroger carries very little Pict Sweet variety. Regards, Yaya

      I am hesitant to post this as I have seen many people here recommending RO water.  With that said, I want to share my experience and how RO water now impacts me.  Three or four years ago a local store installed a RO water refill station.  I had been buying gallons of distilled and spring water prior to that.  I switched over to using the RO water refill station saving money by brining in my own clean empty gallon jugs.  Every 6-months I would replace the jugs by buying new gallons of distilled water.  This RO water is the only water I would drink while at home.  Two huge glasses every morning before work and two more after work.  I would also use the RO water to make coffee and hot coco. This past December, prior to my celiac diagnosis, my gut was making more noise than anything I had ever experienced.  Seriously, it was crazy, almost like fire works going off in my stomach.  I happened to pick up some distilled water for my 6-month jug rotation.  Literally, as soon as I started drinking the distilled water my stomach settled a great deal.  I could honestly feel the difference after the first glass of water.  I thought that maybe the RO water from the store's refill station was contaminated with some sort of cleaning agent.  I swore to myself I would never drink from that RO refill station again.  Instead I went back to buying distilled along with gallon jugs of spring water.  No issues with either of those as far as an upset stomach is concerned.  Cost, well that's a different story all together. After being diagnosed marsh 3c, I went shopping at Aldi's for the first time in my life.  I noticed they also sell water by the gallon.  Over the course of the last few weeks, I have purchased a total of 6-gallons of their water.  (Thankfully they were out on two of my visits.)  After having my stomach starting to make noises similar to mid-December again, it dawned on me, maybe its the Aldi water?  Initially I had contributed my bubble gut to some sort of gluten exposure or cross contamination.  Even though everything I have put into my stomach is naturally gluten-free or has been labeled gluten-free / certified gluten-free.  I had assumed that the Aldi water was spring water.  Come to find out, that was a bad assumption.  Looking close at the label it says purified by RO or distillation (or something like that). Again, I switched to different water.  Just like last December, the non-RO water instantly calmed my stomach and even felt better going down the hatch.  This was earlier today by the way.  Prior to creating this post, I did a few searches via Uncle Google.  I bumped into a thread on Reddit (where I am not a member) that has multiple people complaining of GI issues related to RO water.  So my initial thoughts on a cleaning agent in the refill station RO water were likely not correct.  Unfortunately, it seems the RO water itself causing me problems.  I am not sure if we are allowed to post links to other sites and hopefully I will not get into trouble for doing so.  I did try printing the Reddit thread to a PDF file.  Unfortunately, the file is 2MB in size, which is well over the 500KB file attachment limit here on this amazing forum.  Again, hopefully this is ok.  🤞  Here is the Reddit thread. This may not be a popular opinion here, but personally, I will not willingly drink another glass of RO water for the remainder of my life.  Who knows, maybe drinking RO water for the past several years is part of what activated my celiac?  No proof, but just a thought.  Come to find out RO water is well known to leech minerals from your body.  With people like us often lacking minerals to begin with, RO water does not seem like a wise choice.  As the Reddit thread mentions, there are RO water filtration systems that will inject minerals back into the water.  However, those systems are likely not being used at the grocery store refill stations nor by the bottling companies producing RO water for sale at your local store. Please do not shoot the messenger as I am just sharing my personal experience and letting others know that most RO water will leech minerals from your body. God bless and stay well, Known1

      My neighbor's mom was diagnosed with celiac disease 16 years ago.  She is a very kind person and has shared some info about local grocery stores and daily (soon to expire) meat deals.  This evening she brought over 2 slices of Papa Murphy's gluten-free pizza.  It looks to be topped with chicken and spinach.  I asked, "aren't you concerned with cross contamination"?  She said no and apparently eats it on a somewhat regular basis. I found an old article here along with another thread pertaining to Papa Murphy's gluten-free pizza.  The article is quite old, so I do not think it holds much weight nowadays.  The thread I found was also a bit dated, but certainly more recent and relevant.  The information in the thread I found was a bit inconclusive.  Some said they trust Papa Murphy's gluten-free pizza and others were a big no way.  One person even took time to train their local franchise on how to ensure the pizza remains gluten-free without cross contamination. Anyway, being recently diagnosed as marsh 3c, I am currently working on week 3 or 4 in my new gluten-free journey.  I do not want to be rude and toss the pizza out, but I also do not want to have a reaction.  Since she has celiac and obviously ate much or at least some of the pizza, I am leaning towards eating the two slices for lunch tomorrow.  As this thread's title states, what would you do?  Would you eat it or toss it out?  I suppose I could also just give it back to my neighbor to polish off. I look forward to reading your thoughts. Thanks, Known1

      That must have been really upsetting to discover, especially after relying on a product you believed was safe. Labeling can change at any time due to supplier shifts or shared equipment, so it’s always important to double-check packaging—even on products we’ve trusted for years. A “may contain wheat” statement usually indicates potential cross-contact risk rather than an added ingredient, but for people with celiac disease that risk can still be significant. If you’ve been having symptoms, it may take days to weeks to fully settle, depending on the level and duration of exposure. In the meantime, switching to fresh produce or brands that clearly state gluten-free status is a reasonable step. It may also help to contact the manufacturer directly to ask when the labeling changed and what their current cross-contact controls are.
