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!!!!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise. Is that false?

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?
