E3 Advanced Plus™ to the Rescue!


Scott Adams

Recommended Posts

Scott Adams Grand Master

E3 Advanced Plus can help avoid the discomfort associated with the consumption of gluten protein*. E3 breaks down the gluten protein in the digestive system into di, tri, and free-form peptides before it reaches the small intestine. When these pulverized proteins reach the small intestine in this immunologically unrecognizable state, it does not activate an immune system response.*

This product is NOT suitable for celiacs! This is a paid advertisement!  Although it may be gluten free, it can not protect a celiac from unwanted gluten exposures.   Not one of the astricks on the article is linked to a reference.  The actual product states that none of the claims have been evaluated by the FDA (nor needs to because it is a "supplement."  

I am going to forward this to the Gluten Free WatchDog.

There are no medications currently on the market that "digest" gluten.  This just a paid advertisement.  

 

http://www.cureceliacdisease.org/faq/do-supplements-like-glutenease-offer-protection-against-accidentally-eating-gluten/

 

"We put no validity in these supplements. In fact, they may offer a false sense of protection when they provide no protection at all "

 

There are some meds in development that may be able to break down gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the small intestine.  But they are not available and have not passed all the tests to become a legitimate medication.  When they are available, it may be a prescription only drug. We have had article on here about these legitimate medications.

If you go to the website - they have the legal statement -

" These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease."

Thank you for posting about this. My Mom sent me a link to this product and I was very wary, and for a good reason. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Makes me frustrated that this advertising is so misleading and could really harm a lot of us! Thanks again!

Although this was a paid ad on our site I would not discount the use of enzymes that break down gluten for your mother, or anyone who seeks to avoid gluten for any reason. The fact is that most celiacs continue to ingest hidden gluten:

and such enzymes may mitigate this, especially for those who continue to eat outside their own kitchen.

      There were some interesting talks, particularly Prof Ludvig Stollid's talk on therapeutics for coeliac disease.    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRcl2mPE0WdigRtJPvylUJbkCx263KF_t

      Thank you @trents for letting me know you experience something similar thanks @knitty kitty for your response and resources.  I will be following up with my doctor about these results and I’ll read the articles you sent. Thanks - I really appreciate you all.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!

      So interesting that you stated you had sub clinical vitamin deficiencies. When I was first diagnosed with celiac disease (silent), the vitamin levels my doctor did test for were mostly within normal range (lower end) with the exception of vitamin D. I believe he tested D, B12, magnesium, and iron.  I wondered how it was possible that I had celiac disease without being deficient in everything!  I’m wondering now if I have subclinical vitamin deficiencies as well, because even though I remain gluten free, I struggle with insomnia, low energy, body aches, etc.  It’s truly frustrating when you stay true to the gluten-free diet, yet feel fatigued most days. I’ll definitely try the B-complex, and the Benfotiamine again, and will keep you posted. Thanks once again!

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.
