I am still quite new to this whole digestive issue thing...but I am trying to get on the right track ASAP.

What probiotics do you use and what digestive enzymes do you recommend?

I  think Digestive enzymes from Enzymedica  called  Digest  Gold  are  excellent...

You should  rotate  probiotics. some good ones  are  pearls, Dr.Ohirra's  twelve point  professional formula...Align   plus  many more

BioK+.   Rice or Soy is best for starting out.    The dairy version has a strange consistency that might turn off a newbie in my experience.

I love my probiotic, Florajen 3. It's made a huge difference.

I have used Custom Probiotics, JarrodophilisAF and a few others. 

 

Switch them up once and a while. They work wonders!

 

And the Enzymedica Digest Gold worked very well for me when I needed to use.them.

I see a few people have mentioned switching up your probiotics often.. what is the benefit to doing that? I was not aware of that so now I'm thinking I should be switching mine up.. but what is the reasoning behind it?

thanks!

I use Realfood organics daily probiotic. It's vegan, which is great if you can't have the other probiotics.

I think it has to do with changing up the various strains that each probiotic offers.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
