If Your Tongue Burns, It Could Be From Gluten

Deciding if you are sensitive to gluten can be confounding because gluten can cause so many physical problems. If your body reacts to gluten, it can lead to digestive upset, skin rashes, headaches and nerve damage. And now you can add a burning tongue to the list of possible symptoms.

In a report published in the journal Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology doctors report that tongue discomfort can be a sign of gluten issues.

You can also suspect you are sensitive to gluten if the enamel on your teeth is pitted or rough. In many cases, gluten interferes with proper tooth formation.

    Hi I have had a bad rash all over my body for over a year. No one can tell me what is causing it. I have been told from many to elimanate Gluten. And see if it helps. I have gone gluten free for a month. I still have rash, although do see some improvement. I get itchy a little. I how long should it take for me to really notice a big difference. I am also doing a Whole Body Cleanse. I have done it once , a 10 day program. I am doing it again.

    Oh.

    I have been to Allergist & Dermotologist. Family Dr also has ckd my blood for Celiac and it came back negative for Dermitis Hepframitis (not sure on spelling). I can not get allergist to do allergy food testing.

      Try going Gluten Free—You may have a gluton intolerance which may not show up on the blood test–3 to 7 days and I knew what my problem was.
