Need Good Info On Nutrient Deficiency

[gary'sgirl]

Hi Everyone,

I was just hoping that some of you might either have, or know were get, good information on nutrient deficiency.

I think it may be what is stopping my progress with healing from Celiac Disease. I am desperate for some help.

One thing you can do to get some info is go on to a site that sells used text books, do a search for books on nutrition, write down the titles and authors and then go to someplace like Ebay or Amazon and look and see if they have one of them. I would not purchase from the textbook site as they will be very pricey there. If you have a college close by check their bookstores also. Texts will give you info on not only deficiency but also what foods are best for what nutrients.

I know how you feel. The first couple of months after I found out I had celiac I felt wonderful following the diet. Now 6 months in I'm exhausted. I'm taking several different vitamins as well as iron but I'm just dragging. I'm not hungry all the time anymore but I don't seem to be getting any nutritional benefits from the food I eat. I eat very few specialty gluten-free foods, only Chex and a Diamond brand gluten-free cracker, sticking mainly to fruits, veg, and meat. When my brother found out he had celiac, his doctor told him to avoid milk and milk products for 2 months to help his intestines heal and he did but still doesn't feel 100% either so I'm not sure if it's the healing that is not taking place, the diet that may be lacking certain nutrients, or perhaps other allergies that we aren't aware of yet. Good luck with you healing.
