I'm Working On Realizing Coincidents According To Celestine Prophecy

That was really weird what happened to me today. I don't know, if you guys have heard about the books of Celestine's Prophecy. I already read them almost 10 years ago and found them very interesting. And now, that the first Celestine movie will come into the movie theaters this spring I thought I kind of reread the books and work with the exercise books again. First it teaches you to realize energy flows, auras and to recognize weird coincidents.

Well, I thought, this was pretty weird today while I went shopping. I found something that I first promised to look for, but then forgot about it.

Actually I was looking for a cheap pair of sneakers. So on my "cheap-sneaker-mission" I went from looking for them from Kohl's and BonTon to Ross. By the time I was searching the aisles in Ross I suddenly felt really nauseous and looked for the bathroom. When I left the bathroom I went back the same way and as I passed the one aisle I looked to the right upper shelf. Not only did I look there by incident, but from the 100 books or so the ONE book was standing right there with the cover towards me:

"The gluten, wheat & dairy free cookbook"

I stopped for a moment and then I was grabbing this book like I was crazy or so, afraid somebody else could grab it, before I could. Speechless I realized, that this was the one and only of its kind standing in this shelf and this shop. How rare, normally you would have to order them or look in specialty food stores like Healthy Grocer or so for them. I didn't mention the coolest thing yet. Two days ago I found out the son of somebody in the JuJitsu class has all symptoms of celiac disease. His dad although concentrated on sugar and maybe lactose free, only his mom seamed to be convinced, that this is celiac, when I talked to her about it. So I gave them a little brochure I had for a while, but in my opinion is very poor written. And I mentioned to them, that I will look for something, that explains the link from lactoseintolerant to celiac, but then I forgot about it. And today my way passed miraculously THIS book. Of course I bought it, it also only was 5.29 dollars.

What a sign...lol!

That's funny Stef,

I probably had that exact same book in my hands about a week ago. After going to the matinee of Narnia, my wife convinced me to walk across the parking lot to TJ Maxx and Ross's where I picked up the book. I didn't buy it - In fact I got distracted by some BBQ books, and then some nice cookware Robin was picking out.

Good deals at those stores!

Just to clarify, I forgot my signature doesn't say we are living in Carlisle. When I said the exact same book, I literally meant it :D

      Nope its just me because they can eat wheat and when we use same pans I found out last year thanks to you guys and the autoimmune website im learning,we are not to share though clean, same with sponge. I just wish doctors understood. I am with new gi and new pcp but im falling apart because blood work is fabulous.Im so ANGERY.I have reached out to my local representative, in Stanislaus but its just weekly stuff.Im going to need to physical go down there.Any recommendations on what to say and do because this is absolutely ridiculous. If I didn't have my husband though we are really hurting with one income, I would absolutely be one of the homeless population. Thats alarming begging to be heard about a diagnosis that was given as an adult and dealing with this, medical needs to stick to patients regardless of switching insurance or doctor.

      If you haven't noticed a difference yet, bump up your Thiamax.  Add in another Thiamax with breakfast and lunch.  Increase the NeuroMag as well.  You can add in another Benfotiamine, too.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Taking more is fine. I had to bump mine up several times when first starting.  It's a matter of finding what works for you.  Everyone is different.   Stick with it.  Some of the health improvements are very subtle and gradual.   Keep going!  You're doing great!

      Hello, @hjayne19, About half of the people with Celiac disease react to the protein Casein in dairy the same as to gluten with the inflammation and antibodies and all.  Reacting to Casein is not the same as lactose intolerance nor a dairy allergy.  Damaged villi are incapable of producing lactAse, the enzyme that digests lactOse, the sugar in dairy.  When the villi grow back, the villi can resume making lactase again.  I react to casein. Keep in mind that part of the autoimmune response to gluten and casein is the release of histamine.  Histamine causes inflammation, but it is also powerful excitory neurotransmitter, causing heightened mental alertness.  Histamine release is what causes us to wake up in the morning.  Unfortunately, excessive histamine can cause insomnia.  Our bodies can make histamine, but foods we eat contain different amounts of histamine, too.  Our bodies can clear a certain amount of histamine, but if overwhelmed, chronic high histamine levels can keep inflammation going and cause other health problems.   I got very weary of playing Sherlock Holmes trying to deduce what I was reacting to this week, so I adopted the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet designed by a doctor with Celiac, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne.  Her book, The Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.   The low histamine AIP diet cuts out lots of foods that are known to be irritating to the digestive tract.  After a few weeks, when my system was calmer and healing, I could try adding other foods to my diet.  It was much easier starting with safe foods, adding one thing at a time, and checking for reactions than trying to figure out what I was reacting to with so many variables.  I learned to recognize when I had consumed too much histamine from different combinations of foods.  Everyone is different and can tolerate different amounts of histamine in their food.  B Vitamins help us make enzymes that break down histamine.  Vitamin D helps regulate and calm the immune system.  Supplementing with Thiamine helps prevent mast cells from releasing histamine.  Keeping a food-mood-poo'd journal helps identify problematic foods.   I hope you will consider trying the AIP diet.

      You may be cross reacting to the protein "casein" in dairy, which is structurally similar to gluten. People assume lactose intolerance is the only problem with dairy. It is not, at least for the celiac community.

      Hi @knitty kitty  Just revisiting this to get some help. I found after understanding the extent of my anxiety, my sleep got a little better. Flash forward to a few weeks later I have had a few bad sleeps in a row and I feel desperate for a good nights sleep. I understand worrying about it won’t help but one thing I had tied things too was dairy. Initially when I went gluten free I felt great for the first few weeks then started having some stomach pain. So thought maybe I was lactose intolerant. I started eating lactose free Greek yogurt and that did help take the cramping away I guess. Over the last few months I haven’t eaten it every single day and I went a few weeks without it. The last few nights I did have a small amount with breakfast and noticed that was the only new thing I’ve really added to my diet. I had seen a few other posts about this. Is it possible to still react to lactose free? Would this potentially be a dairy allergy? Or something else.
