Buckwheat is great. I loved cream of wheat and the hot buckwheat cereal is so much like it. So good for much more than pillows. :D

The twist on your words were evident. Merlin's answer was very sarcastic. I appreciate good discussion, but when it gets reduced to defensiveness and sarcasm, it stops being productive.

Berneses had some very good points, too.

It seems that if we just give our bodies a break by staying away from things that hurt us and eating things and even drinking cleansing teas that help the body heal, it's our safest path. Our bodies are designed to heal themselves when we are not overloading them with toxins. I mean, if we cut our hand, we don't have to think about how the wound will heal ... so if take the toxic load off our bodies by avoiding the garbage we tend to feed them, we should heal to the point we are able. Someone made an excellent point about our livers and all other organs being designed to clean themselves ... it's our modern diet that is hurting them!

It's true about modern diets exacerbating elimination problems. Diet is one of the prime reasons for continual gallstone formation as modern diet is all animal protein such as meat, cheese, milk etc. People are not eating enough good fats like avocado and nuts(no no for celiacs?). Without good fats the gallbladder will not release enough bile to digest meals and this stagnation of bile will lead to stagnation of bile in the liver causing stones. If you think the liver produces at least a quart of bile a day then you can see how all that could get backed up and start congealing if there is not enough fat in the diet.

As for the sarcasm above, I've been quizzed with questions exactly like that since the start and it's gets tiresome when you have to repeat the same thing over and over. Also, apart from not appreciating the consequences of constant diarrhea, I have never trivialised Celiac disease and the consequences. I have only taken on such a tone when people try to use the same tone to discredit the liver flush. Many people here haven't exactly been saints. I know people say it is because of me proclaiming the liver flush will cure celiac but that is the topic that is open to debate and I admit that. We never even got past the validity issue regarding the actual flush itself.

Now, on the topic of odd cures for celiac and food intolerances, has anyone seen a naturopath who used magnetic resonance therapy to cure food intolerances? I've been treated 4 times at a cost of 25$ each and he wants me to continue. I don't think I will. Basically what it is is a machine called a biocom machine (engineered in Germany) which measures your bodies (organs) response to an offending allergen. He can test for virtually anything...msg, pet dander, food dies, preservatives, etc etc etc etc. Non invasive and very easy. He determined what I was allergic to and then proceeded to reverse the signal that my organs sent out thereby "canceling" it out and in effect curing me of these allergies. He says he can cure even peanut allergies, hay fever you name it...sometimes it takes years of treatments and people may need to come back yearly or semiannually for a "booster". I know it's a shot in the dark but I thought I would try it, I really had my doubts about curing the wheat and gluten but I do feel like my lactose intolerance is better since. I just wanted to know if anyone else had ever done it too.

There is no science behind this. You can't reprogram your cells not to react through magetism, and for sure that's not a nuclear magetic resonance machine he's got there. They cost millions and are designed to diagnose by imagiing. I could find no reference to this on the internet. Sorry.

The whole liver cleanse idea is bogus to me. I reply only to echo what others have said about PLEASE be careful & consult a trusted physician BEFORE attempting anything that adds laxative to laxative to laxative..."liver spams" "gallbladder spasms" ...???? The liver can't spasm. As some of you may remember, my gallbladder had to be removed not because of stones but because it functioned at 0%. This was determined ONLY by tests. What if I had dumped all of my liver's bile into that gallbladder that couldn't contract. And by the way, eventhough my gallbladder wouldn't contract, my liver function is excellent. This was also determined by my physician who was THOROUGH in his exam BEFORE HE made ANY recommendations. So, that's my advice...know the WHOLE story before you do anything that could cause serious complications.

That said. I will not post back to this thread. I will not be drawn into defending or arguing my position. Please friends, be careful.

      People with coeliac disease have an altered gut biome compared with those who do not, which may be associated with gut inflammation. Although the gut biome recovers on a gluten-free diet, there are still significant differences at 2 years. In a mouse model of coeliac disease, supplementation with the soluble dietary fibre, inulin, increased the number of beneficial microbes and reduced gut inflammation. Inulin is used by some plants as carbohydrate store, it is a complex polymer of fructose in the same way that starch is a complex polymer of glucose. Inulin cannot be digested by humans but serves as food source for some gut bacteria. Inulin is present in many vegetables but the richest sources are (g/100g): chicory root 41.6 Jerusalem artichoke 18.0 dandelion greens 13.5 garlic 12.5 leeks 6.5 onions 4.3 The Scientist: Fiber-Metabolizing Bacteria Could Boost Gut Health in Celiac Disease

      Hi Ginger38 Well done you for pushing through the pain barrier of eating gluten, when you know each mouthful is making you poorly.  I went through the same thing not long ago, my biopsy was for dermatitis herpetiformis. Result positive, so 95% certain I have gut coeliacs too. But my bloods were negative, so very pleased I went for the gluten challenge and biopsy.  Hang on in there. Sue

      When symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, or low energy change how we interact, others sometimes misinterpret that as disinterest, rudeness, or negativity—especially if they don’t understand the underlying condition. That doesn’t make their behavior okay, though. You don’t deserve to be treated poorly for something outside your control. Often, it reflects a lack of awareness or empathy on their part, not a fault in you. It can help to explain your condition to people you trust, but it’s also completely valid to set boundaries and distance yourself from those who respond with hostility. Your experience—and your reaction to it—makes sense. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Being HLA-DQ2 positive doesn’t diagnose celiac disease by itself, but it does mean he has the genetic potential for it, so it absolutely deserves careful follow-up if symptoms or concerns are present. You’re right that celiac is often downplayed, but it’s a serious autoimmune condition—not an allergy—and it can affect the brain, nervous system, and overall health if untreated. Given everything your son has been through, you’re doing the right thing by advocating and asking questions. I would strongly recommend getting a full copy of his records, and if possible, consulting a gastroenterologist who understands celiac disease well so you can get clear answers and, if needed, proper testing and monitoring.

      Yes, I don't recommend barley or wheat grass, even though technically speaking if it's made using ONLY the pure grass it is gluten-free, however, I've witnessed them make it at Jamba Juice and the seeds/kernels often get mixed into the grass before they juice it, so in that case would not be safe.
