Alchohol Key In Certain Instances?


GFDF

Recommended Posts

I would like to interject a possible alleviator of symptoms and growth of the diseases mentioned in my topic and get feedback on most current practices.

Now my body chemistry may be different, but my experience is that when I drink 2-3 servings of pure alcohol like potato vodka, rice wine or certain champagne that these alcohols somehow mitigate symptoms of auto immune, celiac, Epstein Barr, and Crohn's.. all possible issues I've been diagnosed with. Doctors so far indicate a mystery in regard to focusing in on a real diagnosis of me, but, the following cocktail seems to bring me back to a place where I feel some sort of normalcy.

-B 12- ingested daily

-Vitamin C-injested daily

-Algae/Salt baths- done weekly

-aloe juice- ingested daily

-alcohol-ingested daily - rice wine, potato vodka, or a certain type of champagne

Unfortunately, doctors do not know what is wrong with me, but with the above strict regimen, along with a strict diet of fruits, vegetables, brown rice, potatoes, extremely lean meats/fish with the intake of fat digesting enzymes, hardly any dairy (with the exception of goat products), hardly any eggs, and dismissing certain spices from my diet, I have experienced almost an 80% increase in wellness. This has of course effected my weight to a lean body, but has also gotten rid of heartburn, head spins, nausea, body aches, diarrhea or extremely hard stool, and the awful bout with brain fog.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

I have also found huge improvement in health thru a restricted diet.

As for alcohol ~ I gave up caffeine and alcohol for several years as I got sicker and sicker, which did me no favors. I currently drink one cup of coffee in the morning and red wine in the evening - after giving up so many foods, I am thankful to have wine back ~ at least for now :)

      So after  a long time in which I got my zinc and folic acid levels back on track I will now start with taking Thiamine to see if that does anything. According to my blood levels I'm not low on Thiamine but, if I understand correctly, blood works are not the best way to find out if there is a Thiamine shortage. How much Thiamine should I take to start with? 100 mg?

      I'm in the "never reveal your plans to the enemy" camp on this one--it's none of their business if you're looking for another job, so I would leave that out of any conversation. Also, retaliation can be common with some employers, especially if you bring up the ADA and claim a disability because of celiac disease. I was a corporate paralegal for 5 years and handled employment claims against some major USA companies, and I've seen it all--even by huge companies that contract with the government and should know better. I say keep your cards close to your vest, wear an N95 mask if you handle wheat flour, and quietly look for another job if you feel you can't continue there.  Oh, and when I say "enemy," I mean that unscrupulous managers may quickly become your enemy, even if the law is on your side, and they could find trivial reasons to give you the 3 quick warnings that may be necessary to fire you. Very few lawyers would take such a case on a contingency basis, so unless you have a stockpile of money, you'd have no recourse.

      @ohmichael doesn't have an official diagnosis of celiac disease yet. That would need to happen if he were to pursue a disability claim.

      This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. According to this article your two positive DGP-IgA tests mean:

      This is so very interesting I love all this information, knowledge is so very important for us to help ourselves heal, I have been so wrapped up with my dogs nutrition after vets told me she needed a operation, which turns out I can help with this for her  myself also , I may have been missing the tap on the shoulder to say integration into your own health is needed here too , although I have been aware I must admit myself has been on the back burner at times , I also have a granddaughter with nut allergy I researched for that , this is now screaming at me to turn inward to myself also , and deal with my invisible struggles I also am carrying, thankyou for all the information keep it coming , my ears and eyes are fully open 🙏
