Hey, guys,

I've had this problem once before, and posted the question...it was an easy answer, but I've since forgotten how to do it, so I will write the answer down this time! I've been trying to change my avatar photo, and the photo is accepted, but doesn't appear. It's still my old one. I've tried hitting the refresh button, but it still won't change. I'm SO technically challenged! :rolleyes:<_<

      Thanks for bringing this up again.    That week my doctor sent me for a Carotid Artery scan that came back 90% blockage on both sides.  Short story I had a stent put in right carotid artery. Just now getting back to normal from the Anesthesia. Surgery healed well, but it took until the next day to wake up from the anesthesia. A combination of time and B6.  Anesthesia depletes B6, slowing digestion and peristalsis and is also responsible for my freezing cold toes. These are my symptoms.  As a kid I had weak legs.  But now, 10 minute walk and I can barely move my legs.  I blamed it on the sedentary lifesyle from the general pain, and atrophy was to be expected. And with predisone for the pain and Gluten free I expected recovery. With the carotid artery blockage it got me to thinking it is blockage in the Ileac or Celiac arteries.  I might pursue that but the diet is the answer. I would rather not do more surgery if avoidable. Most important.  Every symptom on this list can be the result of a vitamin or mineral deficiency. Particularly B1 and B6, Iodine and choline and vitamin D. Celiac Disease is a disease of malnutrition by malabsorption or even dietary choices.  In the US the commercial bakeries stopped using iodine as a dough conditioner.  From 1970 to 1984 the average american intake of iodine went down 50%. CoQ10 may be beneficial.  It is given to people taking statins to negate the muscle myopathy caused by statins.

      I agree, low carb/no carb is the best way to go.   I follow the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a ketogenic Paleo diet, for my diabetes and celiac disease.  I keep carbs low.  The AIP diet helps immensely to keep my blood glucose levels in range.  I supplement with Benfotiamine, a form of thiamine, because the pancreas uses lots of thiamine to make insulin and digestive enzymes.  Thiamine deficiency can precipitate diabetes.   Thiamine is needed to turn carbohydrates into energy.  In an effort to ration thiamine if there's insufficient thiamine, the body turns excess carbohydrates into fat and stores it, hense the rise in obesity.  (Our bodies are naturally more efficient at burning fat for fuel.)  Highly processed foods do not contain sufficient vitamins and minerals needed for the body to process them into energy and enzymes necessary for the body to function and grow properly.  This is called High Calorie Malnutrition by Dr. Chandler Marrs and Dr. Derrek Lonsdale (Hiding In Plain Site:Modern Thiamine Deficiency).  Dr. Lonsdale has studied thiamine in children and adults with diabetes and other diseases for decades.  Their website "hormones matter" is very informative.

      Might want to see a rheumatologist also, as if this is an autoimmune disease they might be better equipped to to handle and treat. I was finally diagnosed after a biopsy on one of my quads. Condition known as IBM or inclusion body myositis . Good luck  Good luck

      Wends is correct in that for generations the food pyramid chart we were given with carbs at the base is incorrect. The average person gets far too many of their calories from carbs and coincidentally, more calories than they need for good health since carbohydrate rich foods are also calory rich foods. The body can learn to convert protein and fat into energy more efficiently when carbs are withheld. This is the basis of the ketogenic diet and why it works so well. I am not sure I would go full keto for a developing child however. Carbs are not evil. The problem isn't carbs per se but too many carbs.
