How Do You Treat The Sympotms When Glutened?

Hi,

My daughter is 4 and is having the big D again this week. I don't know if she has caught something (I don't think so), or if she was somehow contaminated. She spent three days this week at friends houses while I worked. These people are used to taking her and are careful, but I have found that she has fewer symptoms when people either come here or I don't work as much and she only goes to school and then is in my supervision.

Anyway, my question is do you ever give your children anti-D meds. I have read they are not recommended for children under 6, but she cannot control her bowels, soooo that means 4 accidents yesterday and 3 today and counting. I am going to put a diaper on her now, I don't usually do this, she probably won't wear it, but I am tired of doing smelly laundry.

Is there any natural treatments out there that people use.

Thanks for all your help, don't know what I would do without this bored!

Try peppermint or mint blend tea. I drink it hot and it is very soothing. It immediately stops my nausea and seems to help with the D and bloating. Maybe you could have a teddy bear tea party. You could try it with honey in it or cool if she doesn't like it hot. I hope she feels better soon.

Pedialyte and bland foods. Mint tea seems to help and my daughter likes it if I let her drop a sugar cube into her cup.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
