I've seen a study that concluded probiotics probably help some/most ppl, but there aren't any surefire treatments.

Hope it's over soon.

Unfortunately the aloe often acts as a laxative. Probably not what you want...

It depends on what your symptoms are, love.

Aloe is good for acid reflux. it soothes the throat and stomach. It's not good for diarrhea, as mentioned above. Might help slightly with constipation (?) but there are better things out there.

Eat very plain, easy to digest things now, like cooked veggies and chicken or beef broth. Take it easy, rest, supplement vitamins if you have malabsorption issues.

Otherwise, you just have to wait it out...

Hehehe looks like the aloe juice shill didn't even bother to notice the replies.

1. Create acct

2. Pretend to be a celiac making a ridiculous mistake that product X could solve- just a question of how much & how often.

3. Say it worked!!

Hmmm I got a PM from the shill protesting my judgement, but come on - his/her 2nd post quotes his/her 1st post to reply, obviously not caring what real replies were written.

Does an actual celiac in a panic about eating a slice of pizza (or two) really ignore advice in this forum? I don't mean 'read & disregard', I think he/she didn't read replies, considering one said aloe juice would make it worse.

I don't like seeing newer members/readers/lurkers being misled.

If he is trying to sell the stuff, he isn't a very good sales person. He hasn't posted a link to a brand or store to purchase. He doesn't have a link on his profile to a site selling it. If he was selling it, he would tell us how great it worked and give us a way to buy it, wouldn't he? I doubt there is a large marketing campaign for the Aloe industry like there is for milk.

Whether you or I believe Aloe juice helps with a glutening, tummy ache or male pattern baldness - there is nothing technically wrong with his post. Many people think it is soothing to the stomach. Everyone is free to present evidence they have that it is harmful, useless or helpful. You may even express, as an opinion, that you can't imagine how it could help.

More than 10 yrs ago a friend of mine worked for a couple months simply posting positive things about Pedialite, never linking to site selling it. She was just one of however many creating a positive online impression.

Posting no link is far from exculpatory.

Do ppl really think the OP's 2nd post reads like someone who even read the replies?

If so, maybe I'm wrong.

But I doubt it after re-reading the thread & PM.

I've been reading here for a while, including many threads on what to do after a glutening & don't remember anyone recommending aloe juice. I didn't just randomly doubt the OP's intentions.

      Thank you again for your reply and comments which I have read carefully as I appreciate any input at this stage. I'm tending to listen to what my body wants me to do, having been in agony for many years any respite has been welcome and avoiding all wheat and lactose has thankfully brought this.  When in pain before I was seen by a number of gynacologists as I had 22 fibroids and had an operation 13 years ago to shrink them . However the pain remained and intensified to the point over the years where I began passing out. I was in and out of a&e during covid when waiting rooms where empty. My present diet is the only thing that's given me any hope for the future. As I say I had never heard of celiac disease before starting so I guess had this not come up in a conversation I would just have carried on. It was the swollen lymph node that sent me to a boots pharmacist who immediately sent me to a&e where a Dr asked questions prescribed antibiotics and then back to my GP. I'm now waiting for my hospital appointment . Hope this answers your question. I found out more about the disease because I googled something I wouldn't normally do, it did shed light on the disease but I also read some things that this disease can do. On good days I actually hope I haven't got this but on further investigation my mother's side of the family all Celtic have had various problems 're stomach pain my poor grandmother cried in pain as did her sister whilst two of her brother's survived WW2 but died from ulcers put down to stress of fighting.  Wishing you well with your recovery.  Many thanks

      Welcome to the forum, @Nacina, What supplements is your son taking?
    • knitty kitty
      @BluegrassCeliac, I'm agreeing.  It's a good thing taking magnesium. And B vitamins. Magnesium and Thiamine work together.  If you supplement the B vitamins which include Thiamine, but don't have sufficient magnesium, Thiamine won't work well.  If you take Magnesium, but not Thiamine, magnesium won't work as well by itself. Hydrochlorothiazide HCTZ is a sulfonamide drug, a sulfa drug.  So are proton pump inhibitors PPIs, and SSRIs. High dose Thiamine is used to resolve cytokine storms.  High dose Thiamine was used in patients having cytokine storms in Covid infections.  Magnesium supplementation also improves cytokine storms, and was also used during Covid. How's your Vitamin D?

      Hi,   Not saying Thiamine (B1) couldn't be an issue as well, but Mg was definitely the cause of my problems. It's the only thing that worked. I supplemented with B vitamins, but that didn't change anything, in fact they made me sick. Mg stopped all my muscle pain (HCTZ) within a few months and fixed all the intestinal problems HCTZ caused as well. Mom has an allergy to some sulfa drugs (IgG Celiac too), but I don't think I've ever taken them. Mg boosted my energy as well. It solved a lot of problems. I take 1000mg MgO a day with no problems. I boost absorption with Vitamin D. Some people can't take MgO,  like mom, she takes Mg Glycinate. It's one of those things that someone has try and find the right form for themselves. Everyone's different. Mg deficiency can cause anxiety and is a treatment for it. A pharmacist gave me a list of drugs years ago that cause Mg deficiency: PPIs, H2 bockers, HCTZ, some beta blockers (metoprolol which I've taken -- horrible side effects), some anti-anxiety meds too were on it. I posted because I saw he was an IgG celiac. He's the first one I've seen in 20 years, other than my family. We're rare. All the celiacs I've met are IgA. Finding healthcare is a nightmare. Just trying to help. B

      It sounds like you've been through a lot with your son's health journey, and it's understandable that you're seeking answers and solutions. Given the complexity of his symptoms and medical history, it might be beneficial to explore a few avenues: Encourage your son to keep a detailed journal of his symptoms, including when they occur, their severity, any triggers or patterns, and how they impact his daily life. This information can be valuable during medical consultations and may help identify correlations or trends. Consider seeking opinions from specialized medical centers or academic hospitals that have multidisciplinary teams specializing in gastrointestinal disorders, especially those related to Celiac disease and Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE). These centers often have experts who deal with complex cases and can offer a comprehensive evaluation. Since you've already explored alternative medicine with a nutrition response doctor and a gut detox diet, you may want to consider consulting a functional medicine practitioner. They take a holistic approach to health, looking at underlying causes and imbalances that may contribute to symptoms. Given his low vitamin D levels and other nutritional markers, a thorough nutritional assessment by a registered dietitian or nutritionist specializing in gastrointestinal health could provide insights into any deficiencies or dietary adjustments that might help alleviate symptoms. In addition to routine tests, consider asking about more specialized tests that may not be part of standard screenings. These could include comprehensive stool analyses, food intolerance testing, allergy panels, or advanced imaging studies to assess gut health.
