Has Anyone Had Trouble With Aloe Vera Juice?

I had a bit of a cross-contamination issue earlier in the week and I've slowly been recovering. On mornings when I've felt particularly as though I had a raw stomach, I've been drinking a little aloe vera juice to try and calm things down. However, I notice that this tends to make me slightly nauseous within about 1/2 hour -- nothing serious, but I'm wondering whether anyone else has this issue? I've been assuming that it does help with the inflammation and such, but now I wonder whether I've been making the wrong assumption.

Are you using the distilled aloe vera juice?

My doc recommended distilled so it would

be easier on my system. Also, when you

first start taking it - start with smaller amounts

so you don't get the "laxative effect". I started

with a teaspoon in the morning and one at

night - I worked up to a tablespoon each.

It does have healing properties which is

why I use it.

Yep, it's distilled. I think I must be drinking too much at once -- the word "glug" comes to mind..... :D

Interesting ... my great-grandmother grew lots of Aloe Vera and she'd eat a stalk off the plant every day.

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      That is one of the tests covered in the article I linked you above.

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!

      I had been off of gluten for 3 months due to food testing came back that shows gluten intolerance. I had asked my health care provider that I wanted to be tested for celiac before stopping gluten. Once they actually listed it shows my immunoglobulin A was really elevated and on the AB, IGA part showed <1.0. Would this be a false negative given I had not gluten in months? I’m very frustrated that the the test was not done while eating gluten.
