N-Acetyl Glucosamine anyone?

About four years ago I started a topic about N-Acetyl Glucosamine.  It is supposed to be able to bind to gluten lectins and escort them from your body, before they damage your intestines and joints.  I did try a bottle and had ok results, but didn't keep with it.  Since then my gluten sensitivity has gotten worse, and so have my knees, to the point where I had to get a cortisone shot for the pain.  I am going to try the N.A.G. again, and stay on it longer this time.  Any thoughts appreciated!

      Gluten attack severe insomnia and anxiety?

      BuddhaBar, I came across this thread while searching online for celiac insomnia (having also scared myself stupid by finding out about fatal insomnia) and it did bring me some piece of mind as it so closely matches my own experience. I know this thread is old now, I hope you're doing well, and thanks for posting your experience.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      That's great news, @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour. And you might find that if you do have asthma, keeping your reflux under control may help, if my experience is anything to go by.

But he couldn’t diagnose. thanks again to everyone that applied (still seeing the gastrointestinal docto...

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat.  In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue.   A wedge pillow will really help with this - or raising the top bed legs with bricks.
