"I'm confused, you're going cold turkey AND your on a gluten free diet? Excuse the dumb question but what are you going cold turkey from? " Just a guess, but I would say gluten products! OP I know a few of my friends are gluten intolerant but they've never said anything about withdrawal symptoms | |||

"I'm on my 5th day going cold turkey and on a gluten free diet and its a bit of a nightmare and developing shitty withdrawal symptoms , the worst of which is my skin on my back especially itchy but in a horrible way its driving me bonkers. Has anyone else had to go through this ? Xx" I have had to reduce the gluten in my diet recently due to skin complaints and I find the worse culprit is ........ CAKE!!! Goddammit I love cake, not just like it, not just oh i could manage a slice, nope I flipping love cake, I probably need Cakes Anonymous. All joking aside, it's hard work going cold turkey from gluten, it's in everything! I had always thought it was just bread, pasta, flour, but no its in more than we realise...soy sauce, pasta sauce, alcohol (not an issue for me as teetotal), cereal, vinegar etc etc. If you've been diagnosed by the doctor they usually give you a prescription for products like bread and cereals and other basics. For the skin, a good non scented moisturiser (double base is ideal) and maybe speak to GP about a steroid cream to help heal. | |||

"Lol faddy diet I wish ,I'm in a very rare club as I was born with celiac disease and lucky enough in my teens was able to add gluten to my diet successfully and have enjoyed not havingto restrict my diet , but things don't last for ever ... Gluten is similar to opiates and the body becomes addicted to it so completely stop and withdrawal symptoms appear x" Two of my children have coeliac disease and after diagnosis (several years ago now) we cut gluten from their diet overnight...the opposite to cold turkey happened - they immediately began to feel better, had more energy, their symptoms improved and the stomach pain disappeared. This is the first time I've ever heard of withdrawal symptoms and I personally know many coeliacs. Gluten on it's own isn't addictive, nor is it similar to a opiate...the by-products of digested gluten can in extremely rare cases stimulate receptors in the brain into making a person addicted without realising, but no different to cutting out caffeine, chocolate, cheese etc from a diet. If you feel withdrawal symptoms as severely as you say you would be better off speaking to your consultant and dietician. | |||

"Coeliac disease is NOT an allergy to Gluten. It is an auto-immune disease whereby the body reacts to the presence of gluten by attacking itself. " I was going to make this point but didn't want to appear to point out the OP's ignorance any more than I may have already. Incredibly ill-informed post. | |||

I had no intention of accusing OP of being ignorant, especially as this is a very common mis-conception. My intention was simply to add a little clarity " My point was a diagnosed coeliac would never refer to themselves as having a gluten allergy or intolerance, whereas it's understandable for a non-sufferer not to make the distinction...hence the OP is ill-informed of his/her condition. Particularly as even asymptomatic coeliacs follow a gluten-free diet to avoid anaemia and the increased risk of dermatitis, lymphoma and osteoporosis - therefore no way would one consume gluten because they can tolerate it! | |||
