I think the semi-identical twins ended up with some extra DNA, which can definitely be a problem! And I think they might have ended up with an extra Y chromosone.

Dear Jerry,

I am tired of hearing my relatives complain as well. They won't do anything to fix it. I tell them the worst that happens is they do not feel better. Of course, they go through all of these BS reasons why they could not possibly have it. This is despite it being a genetic disease! And unfortunately, I know I am not adopted. :( Oh God how I have prayed that I was though.... ;)

Sincerely,

The chump has a son with ADD and we have a half brother with schizophrenia....both of which

have been linked to gluten....I tried to explain the potential for neurological damage and he just doesn't get it. I think we'll just let him have the runs for a while longer....he'll get tired of it eventually!

Dear Jerry,

:lol::lol::lol: As long as you think he deserves it! I told everyone else in the family, I am done hearing you whine! You either try the diet or shut up! :angry: I am done being sympathetic considering no one even is considerate of my Celiac. Stupid people suck! That reminds me...that is another thing I am allergic to...stupid people! :P Well, better avoid the whole family from now on. My reaction tends to be to choke people, after sneezing of course. :lol:

I find it interesting you have a brother with schizophrenia. You know some other things that are linked to that? Yeast overgrowth and mercury poisoning. After these things are out of the system, many people do not have any symptoms anymore! If your brother has been on antibiotics or steroids, eats a lot of sugar or drinks a lot of alcohol, the yeast is a good possibility. The mercury poisoning is likely if he eats a lot of fish or seafood, and/or has metal cavity fillings in his mouth.

Sincerely,

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      My only proof

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
