Dextrol is from the Aloe Vera plant.  I don't see any information that it would be good for energy.  I saw a show once, I think it was Anthony Bordain, it was a third world country and they would drink pure aloe.  It was funny how people would try to choke it down, it's really slimy.  They used it as a kind of fix all elixir.  I do have an aloe very plant and use it in healing.

I think you just need to give yourself more time to heal.  There was a huge learning curve at the beginning for you and several "glutenings" and that probably set you back a bit.    I'm assuming your iron levels and thyroid are okay.  

 

I've been at this since only March, but I have lived and cooked for a gluten free husband for over 12 years.  

 

Rest!  Milk it!  Get others to do your chores!  Soon, you'll be back on your feet and you'll have to do all that work!   :lol:

My thyroids ok , not sure of my iron levels. My Dr. did alot of blood work. Checking for just about everything. So I am assuming he checked iron levels also. Maby I am expecting too much, too soon huh? I am not sure if I am stll getting Glutened I may have messed up big time!! After thinking about something I have been snacking on. I will check it tomorrow. Maby it just has corn products in it thats affecting me? I don't know, Also my Liver enzymes are up. I am about tired of all this stuff!! All I know is I have almost 0 energy! There for a while I was walking and feeling better. But now it is like Blagh .... I guess I wish there was a magic pill to help me out lol I don't think I will be taking Aloe Vera lol Thanks for the info  ..... sounds gross! Hahahaha

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
