OMG.....I just toured all of the forums...and the various threads. Those Zeolite ads are only showing up on top of THIS thread. :huh:

They're targeting us OMG'ers because they know we're all toxic!! :blink:

You wont find zeolite ads above the other topics....I think it's just for us. :unsure:

OMG...I think I might be on to something! :o

Lisa...other Waiora distributors have their link's up there. Maybe you can ask Scott how you can get your link up there too. That way if anyone wants to purchase the zeolite....you can just say "scroll up to the blue link." :D

Everyone else gets ads for gluten free foods and such. I guess they realize we cant eat that stuff....so instead we get zeolite ads! :huh:

Aaaauuuuurrrrrrrrgggghhhh!!! There's that song again! :lol:

I only take 15 chlorella tablets right now. I'll be taking 52 on the removal days though. That's a lot of chlorella! :o

The ads are keyword based. Since we talk about zeolite, they are going to show up. You have to pay for those through google.

Aaaaaah....that explains it Andrea. :)

Its nice to know that we're not being targeted as the "toxic crowd". :lol:

I was kind of freaked out that they were only appearing in this thread. :unsure:

So does this mean that whatever I talk about will be advertised at the top of the page?? :huh:

hmmmm...

bad girls, bad girls...whatcha gonna do.... :lol:

OMG....to me 15 tablets is ALOT. :o

I'm impressed Andrea. I think 10 tablets might actually kill me. :rolleyes:

I really think its those stupid oxalates.

I'm going to get me one of them blue links, that's what I'm going ta do.. :P

I say GO FOR IT Lisa....I'm totally behind you 100%. ;)

Kassandra....something has to be causing the anemia. So maybe if that underlying problem were addressed the situation would improve?? Just a thought.

Yes, I totally agree with you. Dr H is pretty sure it's the babesia, but I've been in babs tx for about 7 months, and nothing has changed. The hematologist wants me to have an endoscopy and colonoscopy to rule out any malabsorption problems and/or internal bleeds. He said that I could have a tiny bleed that is causing this...who knows? But he does want it ruled out. I plan on going to a LLGI soon, but we gotta get my period straigtened out. (4 months of bleeding as of next week! :o )

Hey Kassandra has your gyno checked you for fibroids? I was telling my mom about you and she was curious as to what is going on.

I don't know. I think so, but I don't know how they check for that. If it's through a D&C, ultrasound or hysterocopy, then yes she has checked. :) I see her on Monday for a post op appt and we will go over her findings, etc. and hopefully will come up with a game plan for me.

tabasco32 Apprentice

Yeah my mom had fibroids. I will ask her about what tests her gyno took on her to see how he found out. Did they do a pap on you and turn the speculum sideways? I know sounds painful but I think that's the way you see them.

I've had it done this way and it actually isn't that bad. But I'll as her tomorrow.

How was the wedding? :)

I think they saw my fibroid on a CT scan. I also had ultrasounds during that time but I think they saw it first on the CT scan.

Yep--between the ultrasound and the hysterocopy she has thoroughly checked for fibroids. The hysteroscopy gives a full detailed picture of the inside of the uterus and the ultrasound will catch fibroids both inside and outside of it.

I'll be waiting to hear about your appt. on Monday, Kassandra :)

miamia Rookie
He totally does :lol:

I did the same thing with my NAET treatments, I would just fall asleep immediately after, and I would sleep hard. My Dr at the time explained that it was like the circuits were being switched off and then reconnected and turned on again, so yeah, I don't know :huh:

Maybe the zeolite is rewiring you as we speak :lol:

Rachel-

maybe julies right and it is rewiring you to eat pizza and ice cream

miamia Rookie
Oh yeah....I'm telling you...I can rachel ANYTHING!! :D

Poor Andrea. :P

yes poor andrea but i think its funny and I laugh everytime I read it

Mia, I hope so!!

I think that should definately be a priority in the whole "rewiring" process.

The brain function stuff can come later....but first things first....pizza and ice cream please!! :D

CarlaB Enthusiast

Wow, you guys have been busy! In the middle of the night, no less! LOL

Just popping in to say hello.

I used my lightworks on my shoulder and it helped .... but it stirred up a lot, too. This might be a good thing, but can't really tell from one day. :D

I don't know. I'm definetly positive that the brain function stuff may come first before pizza and ice cream. Sorry. :(

Have they done a endometrial biopsy? My mom asked me if they did that to you yet.

Did they do a transvaginal ultrasound where they put it up thier or a regular one? Or a colposcopy to look at the cervic area?

If they didn't do these procedures, I'm surprised they haven't.

Well....that might still work since brainfog is one of the worst symptoms. So maybe I'll be able to eat pizza and ice cream without having to retreat into my own world for a few hours. :P

OR...maybe if I'm totally sane and clear headed I actually wont WANT to eat pizza and ice cream! :o

Maybe if I have more common sense...I'll just avoid it altogether!

OMG....that is a horrific thought. :blink:

I hope it doesnt come to that.

Yes, you'll definetely will be able to eat pizza and ice cream with no brain fog. But it won't come to you not wanting to eat these things at all. :)

:lol: Me too. :lol:

You think so? Nah, I totally don't see that happening! :lol:

Me either...my love for pizza and ice cream is just too great. :P

Well, I learned that if I have a sulfation problem my OAT results for oxalates would not be reliable. :(

If oxalates in the urine are high....this definately indicates absorption of oxalates from the gut. However, if the levels are low it may not represent the amount of oxalate absorbed from the gut. Its because if there is insufficient sulfate in the system it will impair the kidney's ability to remove oxalate from the blood and into the urine.

So that might be a problem for me because of my issues with sulfation.

I think if my results do not show a problem with oxalates it wont change my mind....I feel that I have enough evidence at this point to convince me that it is a problem. Although it would be nice if for a change I could have verification with the lab results. :rolleyes:

Also, even though its definately important to replenish acidophilus and bifidus...they prefer other foods over oxalate....so they are only mediocre at degrading oxalates. The main bacteria for getting this job done is oxalobactor formigenes. It needs oxalate in order to survive...so if there is plenty of this bacteria available a person can eat plenty of high oxalate foods without any problem.

Lots of antibiotics can kill off this oxalate eating bacteria and as of now it is not available in any probiotic. It is currently being developed and will be sold as a drug (and no doubt it will be expensive).

Tetracycline

Doxy

Flagyl

Biaxin

Augmentin

Erythromycin

Chloromycetin

These are just some of the abx which can kill it off. I took the 3 which are highlighted.

confused Community Regular

Everyone,

Today i had an idea. I was thinking of making a little msn group with the bunch of us this thread, That we could chat about stuff and feel less stressed about posting on here were everyone in the world can read it. We can still talk on here about medical stuff, but when we want to get goofy, we can post it someplace else. I could even work on have an chat room in there. I know carla had trouble last time, but maybe we could figure it out this time lol. We could also talk about swapping supps.

paula

i really hoping asking this isnt breaking any rules. Just let me know if anyone is interested.

      First, welcome to the forum, @boy-wonder! Second, a little clarification in terminology is in order. Granted, inconsistency is rampant when it comes to the terminology associated with gluten disorders, but it has more or less become settled in this fashion: "Gluten intolerance" is a general term that car refer to either celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). "Gluten Sensitivity" is the shortened version of NCGS. Third, Celiac disease is not an allergy to gluten. It is an autoimmune disorder characterized by gluten ingestion causing the immunes system to attack the lining of the small bowel, causing damage to it over time due to the constant inflammation that wears down the "villi" (mucosal finger-like projections that make up the lining). Over a significant period of time as gluten continues to be consumed, this generally results in impaired nutrient absorption. There are specific blood antibody tests available to check for celiac disease but the testing will not be valid while on a reduced gluten diet or a gluten free diet. Those already having having begun a gluten free diet must go back to consuming generous amounts of gluten for a period of weeks if they wish to pursue testing for celiac disease. Fourth, NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both. Fifth, you state that you are convince you don't have celiac disease by are just "gluten intolerant" (aka, gluten sensitive). How do you know that? It seems to me you are making a dangerous assumption here. I suggest you consider getting formally tested for celiac disease.

      Has anyone found a gluten free parakeet seed mix? I can't find a single one! My doctor wants me to make sure all pet food in the house is gluten free but I'm not sure if that's even possible with parakeets. We love our birds so much! I'm wondering if anyone has ever made their own bird seed mix if gluten free ones are not available.

      Hi, new member. About me, I had been suffering with weight gain, bloating and irregular and extreme bowel habits for a year or so. For example, I went on holiday in 2023, then again I  2024 at the same time of year and every shirt I wore in 2023 didn't fit anymore, couldn't even do the buttons up. Being in my mid 50s I put it down to age and middle aged spread. I'd been lucky all my life having good metabolism and being able to eat anything and as much as I like without putting on any weight, it drove my other half mad. Over a conversation with a friend health and age Related stuff came up and he mentioned someone he knew who had recently found out they were gluten intolerant,  I looked it up and had every one of 8 or so symptoms listed. Bloating,  weight gain,  headaches, brain fog,  constipation, etc etc. I took the decision to give going gluten free a try. Within 1 week I had lost 4 lb, now 7 weeks in I've lost 13 lb. I feel much better in general,  the bloating has severely subsided, it used to keep me awake at night as I felt so uncomfortable.  So pretty much a success story, as everyone here knows,  going gluten free isn't always easy, and eating out can be awkward,  but I consider myself lucky that I appear to have an intolerance rather than an allergy or being celiac.  I can deal with most of the gluten free options at the supermarket but, the big one for me is bread, I love bread, and the gluten free options I've tried are pretty poor. I was at a posh black tie event last night and chose all the food options I thought would be gluten free,  however,  there was bread on the table and I couldn't resist it, I had I small piece of bread,  god it was good, I wanted more but I resisted. Today I feel a bit dodgy, my stomach is churning, and I generally feel a bit urgh.  So here's the question, is that really down to 1 small piece of bread or is it coincidence?  I'd be interested in hearing how other people have reacted to a similar situation,  as I was considering having a day off every now and then and enjoying some lovely fresh bread.

      Does anybody know of a guide that ranks reevaluates universities and colleges in terms of their accommodation of celiac disease or food allergies?   Thanks in advance for any leads! Valerie

      thank you, i have been doing that the last few weeks and will continue to do so. I had not had my ttg iga checked since I was diagnosed 14 yrs ago so I am not sure if they ever dropped below the 15-20 range.    all my other labs are completely normal but I am concerned that this may be signs of refractor celiac or something else since I'm so careful with gluten-free diet
