Has Anyone Tried This?

I have been researching different websites and at www.curezone.com has information about bowel cleanses, liver flushes, gallbladder flushes, etc. etc. and everyone on there saying how much improvement they have had after doing it. I am really nervous to try it considering how sensitive and tender my bowels are to begin with. Has anyone tried this approach, and if so, did you have any success?

Thanks!

If you do it and go back to eating gluten you will still be sick.I tried that before the dr found what was wrong with me.All it will do is give you a real bad case of diareah(sp).I was to the point I would do anything and that didn't help at all.

Hi--Please be careful with those "bowel flushing" or "liver cleansing" pills. Most of them are bunk.

Remember, if it sounds too good to be true it usually is.

In my opinion, the best bowel cleanser is lots and lots of water daily. Water is a miracle cure, and most people do not drink enough of it.

Good luck to you.

That site claims: "Celiac disease is caused by primary liver stones (intrahepatic stones)." I've never seen any research to support that claim, and have seen an awful lot of well-accepted research that celiac disease is genetic. A cleanse of any sort is not going to change your genetics.

Hi.

I am quite new around here but I know a few bits about things like bowel cleanses and liver flushes etc.

A bowel cleanse would not cure Celiac disease and nor would a liver flush. However a bowel cleanse would be of benefit. The large bowel is responsible for absorbing vitamins/minerals, water etc whilst also been one of the bodies means of getting rid of toxins/waste.

Due to modern day diet the bowel rarely works properly. Most peoples bowels become coated in mucoid plaque which obviously stops it from working as well as it should. People also rarely get enough friendly bacteria in their diets anymore. Without a decent level of friendly bacteria you get issues such as bloating, irregular bowel movements, diarrhoea or constipation, the list goes on. Most people these days are constipated without realising it. Going to the toilet once a day is not really a healthy thing to do.

One of the main issues a lot of celiac seem to get is bloating, toilet issues and so on. Now if you supplement with good bacteria and have a colon which is working efficiently then the side effects you would suffer when you accidentally consume a product which contains or is contaminated with wheat would not be as much of a problem. Another bonus is that when your bowel is working more efficiently you will absorbed more of the vitamins/minerals you consume either in general food consumption or supplementation therefore been more healthy.

Canadian Karen, if you are going to do any sort of cleanses you must start with the bowel cleanse especially before something like a liver flush. If you have problems with a sensitive bowel the best thing to use would be a magnesium based cleanser such as Oxypowder. Many people on curezone rave about Oxypowder simply because it uses oxygen bubbles to gently break up the mucoid plaque in the bowel and also draws water in to the intestines to help you go to the toilet more often and more easily. There is nothing else that is as gentle to your insides.

I have decided not to try for now....

I am too worried that it will be too hard on my already ravaged bowels... And now that I found out I have collagenous colitis (I start treatment this week for it....) I have decided to see if this treatment will improve my bowels in any way..... I really hope so.....

Thanks for your reply, the whole cleanse thing really intrigues me...... especially seeing the pictures of all the stones!!!!

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
