Thanks so much, enjoy your day. :D

I put psyllium husks in my smoothie every morning...great source of fiber and naturally gluten free. For probiotics, I just switched back to Lame Advertisement...great for celiacs who need to repair their intestinal tracks. They add in many beneficial ingredients, such as l-glutamine to help repair and prevent leaky gut.

I also use plain psylium husks every morning. Just add it to a little juice. Works great for me. Not sure about probiotics, though. I should look into that.

great thank you so much, I will search out those probiotics. I personally have trouble with psyllium husk, funny enough it actually makes me more backed up...

I can't tolerate psyllium so have used hemp seed meal and am now using oat bran which I order from Montana Monster Munchies. I have stopped using probiotics and use goat's milk yogurt, it's easy to make. The probiotics I was using had a mix of 9 different bacteria including acidophilus. I found that advice to use the yogurt from the Specific Carbohydrate Diet. The foods on this diet don't feed the organisms in your intestine which cause gas, bloating and discomfort.

I take Acidophilus Pearls by Enzymatic Therapy. I have only tried 2 or 3 different probiotics and these seem to work the best.

You might also want to consider taking a digestive enzyme supplement. I personally take Now Pancreatin.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
