Ran Across This

i found this when i was looking up info on fibromyalgia-------something to do with glyconutrients. i was thinking it might be something helpful----and then i read this.......

I was diagnosed with Celiac Sprue in Dec 1990. This condition is “incurable” and is an intolerance to wheat, oats, rye and barley (anything with gluten). I had a lot of gastric pain, often vacillating between diarrhea and constipation. When diagnosed, my hemoglobin was extremely low and so I was very anemic. I had food sensitivities to hot peppers and spicy foods of all kinds, as well as MSG. I experienced great fatigue and pain.

I began taking some products made by a company in Texas in Jan 1994. At that time they only had an endocrine support product and another product which was designed to help athletes. They later came out with a glyconutrient tablet which I also began to take. Within 8 months or so I had healed a great deal and was able to eat almost anything.

I have been in menopause for 2 years and have very little of the traditional symptoms and have not had to go on hormonal support.

Today, I eat anything that I want. I look and feel great. Many people have told me that I look younger today than I did 3 years ago. My hemoglobin that was extremely low is now getting to normal limits. An impossibility according to most physicians, especially because of my age.

i wonder if she has had any follow up blood work??!!

How was the Celiac diagnosis made? What kind of tests were done?

Sounds like a sales pitch to me!

A sales pitch based on a testimonial from someone who was originally misdiagnosed.

I agree. No one simply goes from having celiac to eating anything they want. It's a chronic, life-long illness, and her diagnosis could have only been from dietary changes--certainly 16 years ago the tests for celiac were less specific. She doesn't even name the suspect supplement.
