Anyone Else With Leaky Gut?


Knuta

I was diagnosed with leaky gut about four months ago and just stumbled onto this website this week. Its great that there are others who are gluten free, but I am frustrated by the fact that i still can't eat anything people are talking about on here. My list of no's is long: gluten, dairy, soy, peanuts, tomatos, potatoes, sugar, corn syrup, chemical sweeteners, oats, kidney beans (and Im not sure about other beans), eggs, and ironically tap water (at least in the town where i live) just to name a few. Anyone else out there that can relate?

I believe I started with leaky gut. You'll learn slot if us on here are self-diagnosed, due to doctors not knowing what our problem was. I finally found some probiotics from kirkmanlabs.com and took double doses for a couple of weeks to heal my gut. Then I started the eliminating to figure out what was bothering me. My list is somewhat like yours.....glutens, dairy, eggs, nuts, beans, rice. Rice, beans and nuts are often the alternatives used for glutens. It's frustrating and you will have moments of depression and anger about "fairness". But you certainly aren't as alone in it as it will often feel.

      Thanks Kitty for your guidance. I will do the test to see if I have nutrients deficiencies and at the same time re organize my diet to see if that helps with my vertigo and other symptoms.

      Yes, Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiac Disease and Meniere's both.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace test to check for thiamine insufficiency.  Diuretics can cause excess thiamine loss.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that improves intestinal health.  Thiamine in the form TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) helped improve my Meniere's syndrome.

      Kitty, to correct the anemia I got IV iron and B complex for 30 days. Then my next step will be test for nutritional deficiencies.

      Welcome to the forum, @nataliallano, There's a dozen or so vitamins and about as many minerals that our bodies need to live and thrive.  Our vitamins and minerals can become depleted in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption and inflammation, so we need to eat a nutritionally dense diet, and keep inflammation to a minimum.

      No, not if you've got an official diagnosis already.   Let's continue our conversation on this thread... Thanks
