Can We Detox From Gluten Using Dpp-iv ?

This article states that digestive enzymes will work on undigested foods in our bodies if taken on an empty stomach. I'm not eating gluten on purpose, but since I'm super sensitive I wanted to try this to see if it would help me with CC.

I started taking this 2 weeks ago and right away had smelly poop and watery "D". I'm currently taking 1 - 2 a day with nuts or seeds and feeling fine. Actually, I've noticed an increase in my energy level. It's too early to tell if this is what I needed.

I was wondering if anyone else has tried this ?

i have no clue about the detox thing, but people say DPP-IV is recommended to them by knowledgeable doctors since it's supposed to help digest gluten, but not to be able to eat it, in case of small traces/CC...it also helps digest casein but i never hear too much talk though, but never heard any bad experience, probably not too well known

I take Digesticol and Proiotics:)

Good luck on your healing journey B)

I think if you want to use them for CC, you would have to take the enzymes while the food is still in your stomach, but if you take the enzymes on an empty stomach, they circulate around cleaning things up. They are supposed to be kind of irritating to your stomach when you first start using them, the website I was reading said it's like cleaning out a scraped knee, you would want to go gently at first and maybe just take 1/2 a capsule until things start to heal.

Thanks for the interesting link. I've read some good things about enzymes. I wouldn't purposely eat gluten with them, but I think they can help heal and get the most from the other foods we eat. Let us know how it goes!

Thanks for your replies. I just started looking into the different types of digestive enzymes available, but I've been eating raw papaya, pineapple, mango and ground up dried papaya seeds and taking probiotics for over 2 years now. These have really helped anytime I've felt like my food wasn't moving through me or I was gassy or cramping. But, after reading this, I was thinking it might be a good idea to vary our digestive enzymes. And add more raw foods to our diets. Maybe it's time to try some sushi ... ;)

Here's a blip on Digesticol. I only copied in a small part ...

      It’s absolutely worth bringing all of this to your GI appointment. The 2013 CT note about thickening in the second and third portions of the duodenum is especially important, since that area is directly involved in celiac disease and other inflammatory conditions, even if it wasn’t followed up at the time. The weak positive HLA-B27, joint pain, stiffness, numbness, and burning sensations could suggest an autoimmune or inflammatory process, which sometimes overlaps with celiac disease or other gut-related immune conditions. Your periods of neurological symptoms (balance issues, numbness, confusion), low vitamin D, and fluctuating levels despite supplementation are also relevant, as malabsorption can contribute to deficiencies and neurologic complaints. Even “normal” labs are helpful for pattern recognition over time. I’d suggest organizing your records into categories—GI imaging, autoimmune labs, vitamin/mineral levels, neurological evaluations, and symptom timelines—so your GI doctor can see the bigger picture. This kind of long-term pattern can be very useful in connecting dots.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community @heart390! Genes connected with the development of celiac disease remain latent until triggered or activated by some biological stressor. The stressor can be many things and our knowledge in this area is incomplete. Suspects include viral infections, antibiotics, pesticides, preservatives and other harmful chemicals in the environment. The onset of celiac disease can happen at any stage in life. It is a long outdated misconception that gluten intolerance is a childhood phenomenon that you eventually outgrow. You use the term "gluten problems". What do you mean by that? Have you been formally diagnosed with celiac disease (aka, "gluten intolerance")? There is also NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or "gluten sensitivity") for which there is not yet any testing available. It shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but is not autoimmune in nature and does not damage the lining of the small bowel. A diagnosis of NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease for which we do have tests. If you would seek testing for celiac disease, you must not begin the gluten free diet until all testing is done with or you will have invalidated the testing. There are two stages to the testing. The first stage involves a simple blood draw to check for certain antibodies produced by celiac disease. If the antibody testing is positive, doctors normally order an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining which checks for damaged caused by the inflammation associated with the autoimmune response. That is the second stage of diagnostic testing.

      Hello, @Aretaeus Cappadocia, My favorite source of B12 is liver.  😺 I react to nutritional yeast the same way as if I were glutened.  Casein, a protein in dairy, and nutritional yeast have protein segments that match certain antigenic protein segments in gluten.  The proteins in rice, corn (maize), and chicken meat have them as well.   Some people with Celiac might tolerate them without a problem, but I need to avoid them.  For those still having symptoms, cutting these out of our diet may improve symptoms.
