Iron/Liver

As someone here mentioned, liver is a good source of nutrition, especially if one is low in iron. I tried to eat liver pate for breakfast and noticed much higher enegy levels throughout the day. Has anyone experienced this, and could this be a symptom that something were off nutrion wise, before eating liver?


Another question: Has anyone taken vitamine B-supplements but it felt like a huge setback in terms of healing your gut so you quitted? 

Another question#2: how long can the gut be inflamed after going gluten free? Is it normal to feel a littel pain after 1 year gluten-free when you have eaten gluten for over 30 years and experienced a myriad of symptoms related to celiac disease?

If one meal of liver boosts your energy levels noticeably, I would think that points to some glaring vitamin deficiency being met temporarily.

It often takes two years for the villi to heal completely once you go on a gluten free diet. But if you are truly eating gluten free, pains should subside rather quickly. I'm betting you are still getting gluten from some source that you are overlooking. 

The B-complex should not do any harm to your energy level but has the potential to improve your energy level and some other health issues. If it made you feel worse I would suspect the product you were using contained gluten.

Yes, be sure all supplements and medications you take are also gluten-free. Most celiacs do need to take supplements, especially a B-complex.

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/

      I'm 67 and have been celiac for 17yrs. I had cataract surgery and they put a gluten lens in my eye. Through a lot of research, I found out about MMA acrylic...it contains gluten. It took 6 months for me to find a DR that would remove it and replace it with a gluten-free lens . I have lost some vision in that eye because of it . I also go to a prosthodontist instead of a regular dentist because they are specialized. He has made me a night guard and a few retainers with no issues... where my regular dentist didn't care. I have really bad reactions to gluten and I'm extremely sensitive, even to CC. I have done so much research on gluten-free issues because of these Drs that just don't care. Gluten is in almost everything shampoo, lotion, food, spices, acrylic, medication even communion wafers! All of my Drs know and believe me I remind them often.... welcome to my world!

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      TTG IgA reference range 0.0 to 14.9 KU/L

      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.
