[Not sure about most of this but I do know Oxalates can cause Kidney trouble. There are warnings about them in Hawaii as they traced the high number of Philippino's on dialysis to growing up eating large amounts of starfruit and bilimbi which are very high in oxalic acid.

it um mentioned lectins in the failsafe diet.

Lectins are not a part of the Failsafe diet. Failsafe removes food chemicals from the diet.

This is a trial diet that is designed to eliminate additives, salicylates, amines and glutamates.

It is not suitable to treat food allergies or coeliac (celiac) disease. It is not a gluten/casein free diet, a low opioid peptide diet, a low oxalate diet (LOD), the specific carbohydrate diet (SCD), a low lectin diet, a low goiterogenic diet, or a low phytoestrogen diet.

This diet is designed to test and treat your ability to tolerate additives, salicylates, amines, and glutamates. The elimination diet is designed to eliminate all of these chemicals at once, because sensitivities to these chemicals often occur together and the symptoms caused by each individual chemical largely overlap.

Currently, the only accurate way to test if you have a food chemical sensitivity of this kind is to eliminate all of the chemicals involved and then challenge them one by one. This is so that you can figure out which chemicals in particular affect you, and what quantity of chemicals you can manage without experiencing adverse symptoms. This enables you to eat the widest range of food without experiencing adverse symptoms.

Alot of people are Gluten-free Casein-free while also trying Failsafe. If you know you have a problem with any food that is NOT restricted on the Failsafe diet then you should continue to avoid that food. There are foods that I have problems with that would be considered acceptable for Failsafe....but I just listen to my body and avoid what I need to avoid in order to feel good.

I dont follow this diet to a "T" but in the beginning (while testing these chemicals) you should try to follow it the best you can. That way you have a better idea of what is affecting you.

      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And...

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.
