Help...My daughter has been Glutened.

[Guest guest]

Any helpful suggestions on how to treat someone who has been glutened?

I have given her Pepto Bismol...but now I am concerned that that may

have had gluten in it too...I didn't look at the label first and now I

am at work worried that I made her worse!!!

What do you take after you have been glutened?

Thanks in advance...

Well, many people on here prefer tonic water with quinine(sp?) in it. They say it helps with the stomach pains. But personally, I just let it run its course. I had never heard of the tonic water solution before joining this group and think it's worth a shot. Can't make it any worse, right?

I hope your daughter feels better soon!

Don't worry, Pepto Bismol is g-f. I don't know if it

helps, though, if one has been glutened. I take

Imodium, but I don't get real severe reactions. My

reactions happen fast, within 30 minutes, I have the

big D twice, a belly ache for a few hours, and that's

it.

So sorry about your daughter, but it does happen to

all of us at one time or another.

Sometimes even at home. Even when we think we read the ingredients

carefully.... :-(

Hey that helps me too--my daughter Molly was glutened last week and is still sick and crampy. Can you tell me though, what is bromelean?

Hi , Bromelain, (I mis-spelt the first time) is a digestive enzyme derived from pineapple stem, core, and roots. Its been used for years as an anti-gas as well as an anti inflamatory agent. It works by breaking down undesirable proteins (such as gluten and other carbohydrates) at an accellerated rate. Some here probably remember the advertisments for "Bromo Seltzer", that was a precourser to Alka Seltzer.... it was a pineapple derivitive. Its some pretty good stuff for gas pain. Its a bit pricey for a good quality tablet, but worth the $ if you get sick!Best!CassiGluten free in downtown Imatra!

Oddly enough, my town was once considered the Bromo Capital of the

world. My town was examined by the FBI because they could not

figure out why so much of it was used in a year. Apparently, the

old timers would go to the local store every day at lunch and then

before dinner and have a Bromo. I guess it is safe to assume that

they were not filled with hot air.
