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 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 ...

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      Thank you for the update @Rejoicephd it is good to know that you may have some answers.  Keep up the good work with your diet, and do let us know if you do get a firm diagnosis.  I took so long to feel better and for my TTG levels to normalise,  but got there in the end, so also bear in mind it does take longer for some of us.

      Gluten Sensitivity

      By StuartJ · Posted

      Well, three months later and a startling revelation!  After going gluten free (and nearly bankrupt buying special foods), my wife made a lunch of meat potatoes and gravy made with Bertolli white sauce - no wheat there right?  Big flare up withing hours and I was really wiped out with it.  She rechecks the label on the sauce bottle and right at the bottom of the ingredients XANTHAN GUM. There's our #1 suspect again!  So by way of experimenting, she decided to try making a loaf of bread with just regular white flour like she used to do and see what happened; the familiar smell hit me when I walked in the door last night and I sat down to eat this still warm, fresh goodness - I thought even if I have to take Imodium sandwiches, it will be worth it 😋 No ill effects, either overnight or today!  Half the loaf is now gone because I had some for supper, saving just one last slice for breakfast in the morning` - I've used the bathroom once and that was normal, so maybe it is not the gluten after all? Can't wait to try a beer! 😁

      Could this be a new intolerance

      By trents · Posted

      Unfortunately, the development of celiac disease usually is not an end in and of itself. It usually brings along friends, given time. It is at heart an immune system dysfunction which often embraces other immune system dysfunctions as time goes on.

      Thanks so much for the responses. I will urge him to go for further investigation. To be 48yrs old and develop a new allergy.. ugh, As if celiac disease isn’t enough!

      This does not seem to be an anaphylactic response but I agree it would be wise to seek allergy-food sensitivity testing. You might look into ALCAT food sensitivity testing.
