Celiac Candida Connection


Genie75

Recommended Posts

I found this interesting article at Open Original Shared Link (or just google "Celiac Candida connection").

I found this article very interesting because I started taking 3Lac about a year and a half ago. 3Lac kills Candida overgrowth in the digestive system. I have had problems with eating glutens for 11 years now and am a self diagnosed Celiac. However, I still struggled with lots of digestive bouts. I started having night sweats about a year and a half ago, and when I googled "Night Sweats", it came up with 3Lac. Apparently, candida overgrowth can cause night sweats as well as a whole bunch of other symptoms including diarhea, which is something I have struggled with for years.

I ordered the 3Lac, and took it for about a year, and tried to stay off the glutens. Because I didn't have a diagnosis from the docs that I had Celiac disease, I guess I was in denial, and when I would get better I would sometimes eat little bits of glutens. However, I learned that typically I would get sick from eating glutens. Anyways, to make a long story short, the 3Lac really made a huge difference in my life. If was one of the first things that really got my stools back to normal. Even eating gluten-free, I still struggled with loose stools.

However, I fell off the wagon (so to speak) last year, because I didn't have a diagnosis for Celiac disease, and I had one dr tell me I should be able to develop a tolerance to small amounts of wheat, etc., I occassionally let all abandon go to the wind. Ie. I ate glutens when I shouldn't have. And to compound things, I went off my 3Lac, sort of accidentally, cause I ran out, and it took them so long to ship me more, that i sort of went off of taking it faithfully everyday.

Not only that, I am a sweets lover, and we know how that feeds candida overgrowth. Anyways, I got really sick for all of November and December last year, that I have now sworn off of glutens for the rest of my life, and let the people around me know that. I cannot eat glutens for 6 weeks to 2 months to get a positive test for Celiac. I think it would kill me if I did that. Would be too sick.

However, my last bout I noticed I wasn't really recovering, even though I had gone gluten free. Shortly after Xmas day, I finally realized that I had to give up sugar as well. Can't remember how I came to that conclusion.

Anyways, I am now fighting the Candida in my digestive system. I up up to 3 packs of 3lac a day now, and hope to increase. I have been taking it since Dec 26. It has been a struggle but I am getting much better. Before Xmas, almost anything made me run to the bathroom. NOw I can stomach rice and veggies again. So the 3Lac is really making a difference. If anyone would like to talk about 3Lac, feel free to email me at s_emerald@hotmail.com

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight.  My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she suggested it.

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.
