Activated Silicon For Intestinal Repair?

I have been taking a liquid form of activated silicon for a number of years, specifically for its benefits in producing collagen in the body. The informational insert that comes with the product has changed over the years in very interesting ways as more studies are done.

It now seems to be helpful to the body's building many "blocks," including bone, connective tissue, hair, skin, joints.

Does anyone have information on its potential value in repairing celiac-damage to the intestinal wall?

I am also using another product-blend based on L-Glutamine, which is specifically for intestinal repair. Any information on that? Am I wasting my money?

Which leaves one last obvious question: Anything else that packs a "Repair Punch"?

I have had success with "Intestive" made by the "SeaCure" people. Google it. Also 8 - 10 mg Biotin helps. Also look into PepZin GI. :)

      Refractory Celiac disease - what to do

      Oh I also drink wine occasionally - I understand the typical recommendation is that wine is gluten free but I don't know how to handle the possible introduction of gluten with fining agents or oak barrels sealed with wheat paste

      @Scott AdamsThe only restaurants or prepared food that I have eaten outside of my home for the last 6 months are from dedicated gluten free restaurants or facilities, except for once in February at a place that had a gluten free night where they deep clean the kitchen and are dedicated gluten-free for the day, and twice in April (due to out of state job interviews) at places that were not dedicated, but mostly gluten free where I questioned them to make sure they were following proper cross contamination protocols. I suspect I got glutened back in December from drinking water (but not eating anything) at an italian pizza/pasta place, so since then I'm not even entering gluten-heavy places...

      Refractory Celiac disease - what to do

      Thank you, I think with the initial blood tests they did actually do the IgA tests first to make sure those are normal! I am wondering if there are any tests that actually test for the presence of the gluten protein? From my understanding, all of these test for gluten antibodies, which in the case of refractory celiac would switch to a gluten-independent mechanism of activation. Because my ttg levels havent changed at all with my increasingly strict diet, I am concerned about distinguishing between the possibilities that 1) I am super sensitive to very very small amounts of gluten and am getting cross contamination from somewhere I haven't identified or 2) have refractory celiac where...
