Have they told you what metals are high?

Please pm Rachel_24 on this board, as she is our resident expert on heavy metals, having battled mercury toxicity caused by dental amalgam.

Your daughter might have developed mercury toxicity as a result of vaccines, or as a result of dental amalgams (her own, or yours affecting her while you were pregnant with her), or by some other contamination.

If you have her scheduled to receive any more vaccines, please consider delaying them until you have time to do thorough research. www.nvic.org is a good place to start.

Yes yes yes to all of the above, but eating organic and using non-toxic cleaners is not living in a bubble. It is just wise and something everyone should be doing. In fact, such products are available from many many sources, and the reason so much is available is because there is such a huge market for it which means lots and lots of people are living that way. I doubt any of them feel like they are living in a bubble. They probably feel free and healthy and better than they ever imagined they ever could! :)

Look into Chelation Therapy

holiday16 Enthusiast

Welcome to my life, LOL. I'm doing chelation right now and I've noticed tremendous improvements already. We have the reverse osmosis water purifier, air purifier etc. You're more than welcome to contact me. I'm sure I'll learn more as I go along. I'm supposed to get a filter for our shower as well. I think when I'm done I need to focus on my oldest as she is having issues. The NP I'm working with says she often sees this with people that have trouble with gluten as their bodies cannot eliminate it the way it should.

You don't happen to have well water do you?

I have not checked into it yet but I read somewhere that you need to have your amalgams removed before starting chelation. Research before doing.

      Hi! I had my first episode of AFib last May when I was 30 (I have had some heart stuff my whole life but nothing this extreme). I was not diagnosed with celiac until the beginning of this month in October of 2025. I was in the early stages of celiac, so I'm not sure if they were related (maybe!) All of my heart tests came back normal except for my electrolytes (potassium and magnesium) that were low when the AFib occurred. I also became pregnant with our third and last baby a couple weeks after I came back from that hospital stay. I had no heart complications after that whole thing. And I still haven't over a year later. It was definitely scary and I hope it doesn't happen again. I drink an electrolyte drink mix about every day, and I'm sure being on a gluten-free diet will help my body even more! I will pray for you in this. Taking care of our bodies is so challenging but Jesus is with us every step of the way. He cares and He sees you!

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.
