Hydroxycut

Previous to going gluten-free I always took supplements such as Xenadrine or hydroxycut when I worked out, (ephedra free of course!), I have noticed I get a reaction from Xenadrine, but I seem to be fine with hydroxycut, I looked around for info but haven't found any yet....Let me know if anyone has any info on this or other energy/diet pills that are gluten-free

I have not taken any supplements for some time now but my belief has always been to keep it as simple as possible. I would suggest taking a plain old L-Carnitine supplement if anything and seeing how that works out for you. I believe it worked for me (when I used to take it for higher energy during weight training), and have seen articles supporting it for a number of things ranging from post-polio therapy to weight lost in obese pets! Its an amino acid that helps with lipids and energy too... just make sure wherever you get it it is "clean" from cross contamination.

      @Ronnie d, there is a small percentage of celiacs who have dermatitis herpetiformis but have no small bowel mucosal involvement. Also, we have had some reports on this forum from dermatitis herpetiformis suffers who said Dapsone did not work for them. But for the vast majority it does.

      yes, the above is true. however; if the doctor does the tests and finds your are a candidate then dapsone is the drug that will stop the blisters immediately. dapsone started as a drug for malaria and leprosy....I do not know how it became known for dermatitis herpetiformis. I can tell you that my doctor told me she had several patients that have taken it over 20 years. our dosage was one a day until clear,then we went to every other day for a while, working down to zero a day. I still have an active prescription for dapsone but have not had to take one in several years. in closing, if anyone reads this and has truly been diagnosed for dermatitis herpetiform is, then ask your doctor for...

      I wonder how many doctors are aware of this site and would or should recommend it to their patients?

      I just got my test results after a less than 2-week gluten challenge consuming about 5 g of gluten per day on average.  Anti tTG-IgA: <0.2 AU/ml (<8 is negative) IgA: 180 mg/dl (Reference range is 70-400) I previously had been on a gluten-free diet for around 3 years or so, with occasional cheating and not being strict about cross-contamination. I am however still suffering from the effects of the gluten challenge (food sensitivities, slight brain fog, weird stool, fatigue, swollen thyroid, bodyaches). Is this likely to be NCGS rather than celiac disease given the test results and my history? Note: I have one copy of HLA-DQ8.

      How long have you been strictly gluten free? Certainly, it would be good to look into vitamin and mineral deficiencies and supplementation. The B vitamins, magnesium and D3 are all very important to neurological health. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to reverse gluten-induced neurological damage damage if it has gone on for a long time.
