Great News Enterolab Testing


MLB

Recommended Posts

MLB Apprentice

Hi all,

I just got my newest Enterolab test results back. 9 months ago I tested + for gluten and dairy and severe malabsorption (1279). My new test results show a normal fecal fat score indicating no malabsorption! I was really excited so thought I'd share. I've been so careful with my diet and have not cheated once (intentionally anyway - been glutened many times) so it's nice to see progress with my labs.

Nice how do you feel since it has been 9 months on the diet?

That's great news. :) All that hard work has paid off. It must feel good to know and have proof that your body is healing. Hope you'll be enjoying continued improvement in health.

Thanks! I've improved so much in 9 months. Things that went away or improved greatly:

upper abdominal pain (bad - my worst symptom)

daily headaches

constipation

hypoglycemia (this was getting quite bad as well - totally gone now!)

eczema

blood pressure (i got to cut my medication in half)

anxiety

Still struggling with:

acid reflux - not like it was before, but this annoying symptom still comes and goes

I've had great improvement in some areas too. One of the things I struggled with was acid reflux. I had to sleep propped up on pillows. I got onto a few links regarding digestive enzymes and decided to try it a few months ago. I went cold turkey off the acid meds at the same time I went on "Digest" enzymes and had some trouble for about 3 more days and then, low and behold, I was "Reflux" free!! I still take one with each meal (2 daily) and I am totally heart burn free. This is after years of acid reflux!!!! They work. Long term use of the medicines can actually make the problem worse as your body is not producing the enzymes needed. Check out the info on Enzyamedica web site. Hope this helps. Also, it is suggested to not start on fruit enzymes, thats why I picked the one called "Digest" from Enzymedica. The people at my local health food store are not educated enough, so be careful. Read up on it first.

      You might try Heallix.  It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball.  It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again,  not in your eyes or ears.   Go to heallix.com to read more about it and decide for yourself Also,  I do think nerve and celiac combined have a lot to do with your susceptibility to shingles breaking out.

      Celiac disease requires both genetic potential and a triggering stress event to activate the genes. Otherwise it remains dormant and only a potential problem. So having the genetic potential is not deterministic for celiac disease. Many more people have the genes than actually develop the disease. But if you don't have the genes, the symptoms are likely being caused by something else.

      Yes, i pulled raw ancetry data and saw i have 2/3 markers for DQ2.2 but have heard from friends in genetics that this raw data can be wildly innacurate

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
