Raw Apple Cider Vinegar Helps!

I was reading something about apple cider vinegar for stomach discomfort. So, I decided to give it a try. It actually helped my stomach sooo much. I have had very good and easy bms. Usually, they are pasty with undigested food in them. I am just wondering why this would help?

It helps me too, especially after I've been glutened. I think it helps me digest my food better. Glad it's helping :)

I have heard it is suppose to change the pH in the stomach and encourage the natural acid to digest food. I've taken it for years and it does help.

This is interesting... I use apple cider vinegar on occasion, but have yet to try it post gluten reaction. I've read about people doing shots of apple cider vinegar after meals, and I'm wondering how you use it (ex: mix it into a salad dressing or soup) or as a medicinal/probiotic "shot"...

I just put 1 tsp in a shot glass and fill the rest with water, then just drink it like that. I do NOT recommend drinking it by itself... burns a lot!

Sounds palatable. Thanks for the tip.

Just wondering, however, it this would be good or bad if you are battling candida (which I am)

Aside from helping with digestion, it keeps my skin really clear. I drank it a lot in the beginning when I was having lots of stomach issues, but then I slacked off. I've picked it back up and I'm amazed how good my skin looks in week. Maybe there is something to the detox effect?

FWIW, Bragg's is the only one I can stomach. It has a faintly apple taste. I tried another raw one and Heinz. The other raw one, Spectrum, I think, was okay. The Heinz was just horrible!

I took it for years with honey and warm water. It's really good that way. I can't do so much of it anymore. I don't know why. Maybe I can't do that much vinegar.

I don't do the vinegar by itself but I do put lemon juice in my food often. Lemon juice goes well in rice dishes and with vegetables. I figure they are both acidic so why not? Vinegar can be used in foods also. Rice vinegar is nice. I don't know of any reason you would get more benefit by taking it (vinegar or lemon juice) separately from your food, but maybe there is one? I'd rather add it to my food instead. That reminds me of people using lemon slices in their water glasses and other drinks. Maybe that developed as a digestion aid in the past? It tastes good anyhow.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
