Candida Infection

I self diagnose myself as being gluten intolerance, though I also suspect that I may have candida ( yeast intolerance?) and thyroid problems... and in conclusion also malnutriution. In time I suspect I should have a doctors visit soon, and will give awareness of my self diagnose and suspects. I think it may be likely if I get my thyroid and candida test done, and it shows that there is a health problem I may get treatments for both and possible other test done.

Since I would like a accurate test of whether I have a candida problem or not, I have only elimanted yeast from my diet. Though I did not go on a complete candida diet, so if I were to get a candida test done would the results likely come back accurate? So far since eliminated yeast other health problems seem to have been making improvements. I also was wondering, as being gluton intolerance I'am not to eat gluton again... but would I be allowed to tolerate yeast or candida ( since it is naturally within one) again? I suspect I will.

Hi there,

I suspect a similar diagnosis for myself aswell. Asfar as i know it is incredibly dificult to get yeast/candida sorted by just removing yeast so the results should show if there is a problem with it. Some people have a yeast allergy which would be improved by just removing yeast alone i guess.

Do you live in the UK? Im desperately looking for a doctor in the uk that will test for candida...please let me know if you find one!

Good luck with it all,

Heidi

I'm not in Europe, I'm in Lansing, Michigan... and the health system here is one of the worst. I'm having a hard time myself going to the doctors. There are tons of doctors around here that can diagnose my candida and other health problems and none are doing it.... right now I can't even get a appointment. I'm 17 years old, and knowing my oppurtunity of leaving the city for college ( after my senior year coming up), I'm basically taking advantage of it. I'm just really rage, and will feel relief once I leave this city that has neglected my health.

I know I got off topic, but have been dealing with my health problem for too long and little steps are being done.

Thanks for the luck,

You should set a appointment and let them know about your candida, since it may have lead to tons of other health problems...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      My only proof

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
