Quercetin Has Helped Me A Great Deal

hi. I am Dx Celiac and of course am/was allergic to the Big five.
I was reacting to everything and the worst symptom was the DH. I hate it so much! It is so painful, so gross looking as it makes me feel grubby and dirty.

 

I stumbled across an article on Cromyln (which most here already know about, and Mast cell disorders) I know my stupid Doctor would never RX that for me, he would tell me my disease is "not bad enough" No, it just means he wouldn't make any money writing me that RX. Canadian medicine.

I digress...

With deeper searching I found out about quercetin. I've tried 100's of supplements and thought there was really no harm in trying. So I ordered some and I have been taking it for about 3 weeks.

The first couple of weeks I got a DH flare up that was pretty bad. My DH affects my fingernails as well...more accurately my left pinkie. The nail will literally come off. I thought it was nail psoriasis  but my dermatologist told me it was DH blisters in the nail bed.

With this last flare my nail split and nearly all came off.

Then something amazing happened.
The nail has started growing back normally!  
I have NO DH blisters and I have been eating egg whites, tomatoes and feta cheese!!! 
THIS could be it! I know I am truly allergic to wheat but my insides were so messed up I couldn't digest anything. Quercetin, along with Bone Broth and L-Glutamine may finally  be repairing my small intestine.
I will keep youse posted if you're interested!

      Severe severe mouth pain

      But for someone with Barrett's like @Charlie1946, long term PPI therapy might be necessary.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      Aaaackkk!!! Stop with the Omeprazole! It's not good, especially if taken for a long period of time!!! Gerd and Acid Reflux are actually caused by too little digestive enzymes resulting from nutritional deficiencies in Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 that are needed to make digestive enzymes. Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that has been shown...

      Aaaackkk!!!  Stop with the Omeprazole!  It's not good, especially if taken for a long period of time!!!   Gerd and Acid Reflux are actually caused by too little digestive enzymes resulting from nutritional deficiencies in Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3 that are needed to make digestive enzymes.   Omeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that has been shown to cause continuing villi damage to the small intestines!        Factors associated with villus atrophy in    symptomatic coeliac disease patients on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28220520/ Proton Pump inhibitors reduce digestive enzymes which results in poorly digested food.  If the food is not broken down by the digestive enzymes, then the nutrients cannot be released from the food and cannot be absorbed by the villi.  Damaged villi cannot absorb nutrients from food.  PPIs block Thiamine B1 transporters, so that thiamine cannot be absorbed.  PPIs reduce the production of the intrinsic factor required for Cobalamine B12 absorption.  The absorption of other vitamins and minerals are affected as well.    The Effects of Proton Pump Inhibitors in Acid Hypersecretion-Induced Vitamin B12 Deficiency: A Systematic Review (2022) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36545170/ Proton Pump Inhibitors like Omeprazole should be used only on a short term basis, like two weeks.  Continued use can cause nutritional deficiencies because PPIs prevent the absorption of vitamins and minerals.      Profound Hypomagnesemia Due to Proton Pump Inhibitor Use-Associated Wernicke’s Encephalopathy: A Case Report on Excitotoxicity https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12618944/    Proton pump inhibitors and risk of vitamin and mineral deficiency: evidence and clinical implications https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4110863/ Vitamin and mineral deficiencies contribute to health problems like Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Chronic Renal Failure and Osteoporosis.    Association between dietary intakes of B vitamins and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in postmenopausal women: a cross-sectional study https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10621796/    The association between proton pump inhibitors and hyperparathyroidism: a potential mechanism for increased fracture-results of a large observational cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37530847/ Regular Proton-Pump Inhibitor Intake is Associated with Deterioration of Peripheral Bone Mineral Density, Microarchitecture, and Strength in Older Patients as Assessed by High-Resolution Peripheral Quantitative Computed Tomography (HR-pQCT) https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12546302/ Vitamins and minerals are essential to our health and can prevent disease. Long term use of PPIs can cause kidney disease and liver disease!    Association between Proton Pump Inhibitor Use and Risk of Incident Chronic Kidney Disease: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39061988/    Proton pump inhibitors use and the risk of fatty liver disease: A nationwide cohort study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32886822/  Thiamine deficiency unrelated to alcohol consumption presented with urinary retention and Wernicke's encephalopathy: A case report https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10415583/ Essential nutrients are needed to repair and heal the body!    High-dose vitamin B1 therapy prevents the development of experimental fatty liver driven by overnutrition https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33608323/ Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ There are liquid forms of B complex vitamins that are available over-the-counter and by prescription.   I pray for ears to hear.
