Hello to all! Would like to know if anyone can help me here? Through process of finding out what is wrong with me, I am now at knowing I have hypothyroid, anemic, just waiting to get a scope to see if I am celiac, naturalpath things maybe leaky gut because I am allergic to dairy, eggs, also some fruits & vegies. Knowing my body is not absorbing nutrients properly, how do I know I am eating well to feed my body to good health?

Breakfast: mainly Quinoa or Millet cooked up with 1T. protein pwder. 1/2c. fruit, 1/2 banana, cinnamon, ginger & 1T. flax meal

Snack: apple or rice crackers I make, usually a fruit

Lunch: Rice bread I make, meat, mayo experimenting recipes with no egg, & vegies or salad with meat, or soup & sandwich all homemade

Snack: another fruit or rice crackers, sometimes pumpkin butter

Supper: meat, brown rice, various vegies with Braggs All Purpose Seasoning

Taking: iron supplement, Cal/mag, thyroid plus, Gastri-gest before meals, & L-Glutmaine pwdr. 1x a day

Some of you ladies seem well experinced in healing yourself, would appreciate any input.

As far as I know, until your gut is healed, you don't know. The best thing to do is continue to eat a strict, gluten-free diet. Also, anything that causes you discomfort, stay away from. For example, many celiacs become intolerant to lactose, soy, eggs, nuts, and other allergens. I am one such person. Although I can eat eggs and nuts, I have difficulty digesting them. Soy causes burning in my throat. Likewise lactose, but I am beginning to tolerate small doses of lactose, such as found in yogurt.

The thing is to find out what works for you. Depending on your age and severity of damage, it can take as long as 1-2 years to heal.

Good luck! Everyone here understands how difficult this is. Keep your head up!

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
