Gluten “attack” hits hard—celiac/sensitivity or not (baked gluten toughest). Cross-contam/cravings happen; recover quick.
Symptoms: Glued gut, heartburn/bloat/gas, fog/headache/rash/fatigue, diarrhea/constipation/joint pain. Brain perfusion ↓92% in sensitivity (Cerebellum, 2021).
Recovery Steps Table
| Priority Step | Why & How (Dose/Timing) |
|---|---|
| 1. Gluten-Free ASAP | Halts damage; no “blow it” spiral. Stress ↓ (worsens gut). |
| 2. Antioxidants | Inflammation fight: Ginger/turmeric/greens/fish/tulsi/broccoli sprouts/mushrooms (gut foods post). |
| 3. Hydrate | Flush toxins: Water + electrolytes/bone broth. |
| 4. Enzymes | Digest remnants (baked gluten enzyme-proof) (enzymes post); broad-spectrum now/ongoing. |
| 5. Probiotics (2x/day) | 30% celiac symptom ↓ (Nutrients, 2020); sauerkraut/kimchi/kefir. |
| 6. Charcoal | Binds allergens (like peanuts); coconut, away from meds. |
| 7. Glutamine | Gut fuel; 5g powder in water (PMC5454963). |
| 8. Betaine HCl | Low acid common trigger; trial if digestion weak (PMC5467726). |
| 9. Move | Motility ↑; walk/yoga. |
Timelines
Sensitivity: 1-3 days.
Celiac: 1-4 weeks (skin longest).
Faster if pre-gluten healthy + act now.
Consult Doctor if severe—root fix wins.
