What Are Symptoms Of Heavy Metals?

I have been reading about others fighting candida, I too have been fighting this since about six months after the birth of my second child, I started having chronic yeast infections that my gyn could not successully treat, I was then treated by a GP with diflucan for 21 days and boric acid suppositories, vaginal. this helped but she did not stress cutting out sugar, so I did not and it came back, I have been treating my self with GFSE, odorless garlic, probiotics and cutting the sugar as much as I can, and have been free of vaginal yeast, but still gassy. I am also wondering if I have celiac disease or just issues with gluten, which could cause the gas. My question is, I see lots of people talk about having issues with heavy metals, what are symptoms of this? I do have eczema on my hands that I can not get rid of, and I know there is no cure for eczema, but I would love to have something to help keep it under control. Does anyone here have issues with eczema? I am a nurse that only works occasionally, but when I do and wash my hands with all that antibacterial soap, it tears up my hands, they are often cracked and bleeding, who wants their nurse comming in with cracked, bleeding hands!

It's funny, I was heavy metal toxic and chelated them .... but I don't have a symptom list .....

I would suggest Googling Dr. Klinghardt .. he's the heavy metal expert. :)

I'm not very familiar with them but I do know memory loss is one of the symptoms. There was an article the other day on yahoo news I believe that stated a certain amount of senile senior citizens had very high levels of lead.

Here's a little information I found on it - Open Original Shared Link

You can get rid of eczema. Its usually a sign of gut disturbance. I have read many cases on the Yeast Connection Forum of people getting rid of it.

The idea is to starve the fungus (yeast) so you have to avoid anything starchy especially sugar, kill the fungus with antifungals, and then replenish with probiotics. So you are on the right track already. But if you don't starve them, they will not completely go away. They survive on starchy foods.

There is another Candida thread you might be interested in . Also, more info is available at www.wholeapproach.com. Open Original Shared Link (yeast connection)

About the heavy metals, symptoms can be vary. Some have add type symptoms, food sensitivies including gluten (mercury damages the enzymes necessary for gluten digestion), wierd pains, reoccuring yeast problems, other auto-immune problems, brain fog, autism....the list goes on and on. It can be different for everyone.

If you have yeast problems that keep coming back after many attempts to control it, then you definately have some underlying issues - most commonly heavy metals. Do you have fillings?

Yes I do have metal fillings, the last one I got was the white one, but I still have the other metal ones.

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
