New here...my 18 year old daughter was recently identified as gluten sensitive by her MD who is also an integrative medicine practitioner. She has not been tested for celiac...that is for a separate post.however, one of the cues that my daughter discovered that led her tp gluten- free diet was the appearance of a nasty dermatitis on two fingers that would eventually go away after gluten and dairy were eliminated. She recently must have unwittingly consumed either dairy or gluten, and the excema/dermatitis reappeared. I happened to be shopping in our local natural food/products store, and the manager told me about a product called Redmond Clay. She said to make a paste by adding water to it and have my daughter apply to her fingers and wrap with Saran and wear overnight. The result was extraordinary! It had been painful, blistered, raw and angry looking. As soon as she applied it she could feel it working. When she removed it the next morning, the inflammation and blisters were gone. The redness was lighter, and it was clear that new skin was starting to appear. Supposedly the clay works by drawing the toxins out of the body. You can also drink it for internal cleanse. I highly recommend looking into this for anyone affected. Here's some info...

I use Redmond Clay for a lot of things. You must live in Utah if you found it in a local store. It doesn't really cure anything, but it sure helps clear up topical things quickly doesn't it! I love it for cuts and burns and blisters, things of that nature. (Always make sure it can't dry overnight.) I used some just Christmas night on a nasty bump and was feeling much better in the morning. If it helps, I recommend continuing to use it. But certainly watch for recurrences as they are sure to happen if CC happens and remember this won't cure anything. Simply help with the symptoms as they happen.

      Swelling of the throat sounds more like an allergic reaction (IgE), rather than a reaction related to celiac disease. You may try antihistamines, and consider getting food allergy testing done to identify the culprit.

      I am 70 years old but very active. Yes, that is the GI Reset and didn't see any issue from using it the first two weeks. I realized the Aleve may not be gluten free and I have reacted to those pills. I am taking AlgaeCal - Natural Algae Calcium Supplements To Increase Bone Density.  It is the swelling of the throat and blisters on the back of the tongue which worries me. I have not seen anyone report these symptoms. Thank you   Blake

      Hello, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis about 3 years ago. At that time I quit gluten and it really helped my symptoms. I hadn't known that I should've tested for celiac before doing so.  Up till recently, gluten would cause my symptoms to flare up, although I never noticed anything with cross contamination, so I wasn't strict about that. But recently, I noticed I could get away with more gluten, and so I decided to do a gluten challenge to see if I had celiac and if I had to be strict. Note that my thyroid antibodies had been decreasing steadily up to this point. My anti-TPO had reached 50 IU/ml from 250 IU/ml (reference range 0-5.6) when I had first been diagnosed. After just a week of the gluten challenge, I measured my thyroid antibodies and they were at 799 IU/ml! I felt fine, but a few days after I started to feel the symptoms. Extreme brain fog, insomnia, diarheaa, fatigue, sleepiness yet cannot sleep, stomachache after eating gluten, nausea, swollen throat (probably due to my thyroid), burping, and gas. I cannot function properly. I'm also worried that I'm killing my thyroid. Should I just quit the challenge? It's been almost two weeks, but the first week I wasn't tracking well, so that's why I didn't want to count it. I can't eat gluten anyway because of my thyroid, but I wanted the diagnosis to know if I should be strict about cross contamination or not.

      You really saved me as I was on day 4 of 3 g per day for 6 weeks. Thank you very much!

      Two weeks is the minimum according to the guideline. I would go for four weeks if you can endure it, just to make sure.
