Aloe Juice

[bnova]

I messed up after 3 years of gluten-free

Ate 2 pieces of pizza, now severe gut ache

Does aloe juice help?

How much / how often??

Help!

I've seen a study that concluded probiotics probably help some/most ppl, but there aren't any surefire treatments.

Hope it's over soon.

Unfortunately the aloe often acts as a laxative. Probably not what you want...

It depends on what your symptoms are, love.

Aloe is good for acid reflux. it soothes the throat and stomach. It's not good for diarrhea, as mentioned above. Might help slightly with constipation (?) but there are better things out there.

Eat very plain, easy to digest things now, like cooked veggies and chicken or beef broth. Take it easy, rest, supplement vitamins if you have malabsorption issues.

Otherwise, you just have to wait it out...

Hehehe looks like the aloe juice shill didn't even bother to notice the replies.

1. Create acct

2. Pretend to be a celiac making a ridiculous mistake that product X could solve- just a question of how much & how often.

3. Say it worked!!

Hmmm I got a PM from the shill protesting my judgement, but come on - his/her 2nd post quotes his/her 1st post to reply, obviously not caring what real replies were written.

Does an actual celiac in a panic about eating a slice of pizza (or two) really ignore advice in this forum? I don't mean 'read & disregard', I think he/she didn't read replies, considering one said aloe juice would make it worse.

I don't like seeing newer members/readers/lurkers being misled.

If he is trying to sell the stuff, he isn't a very good sales person. He hasn't posted a link to a brand or store to purchase. He doesn't have a link on his profile to a site selling it. If he was selling it, he would tell us how great it worked and give us a way to buy it, wouldn't he? I doubt there is a large marketing campaign for the Aloe industry like there is for milk.

Whether you or I believe Aloe juice helps with a glutening, tummy ache or male pattern baldness - there is nothing technically wrong with his post. Many people think it is soothing to the stomach. Everyone is free to present evidence they have that it is harmful, useless or helpful. You may even express, as an opinion, that you can't imagine how it could help.

More than 10 yrs ago a friend of mine worked for a couple months simply posting positive things about Pedialite, never linking to site selling it. She was just one of however many creating a positive online impression.

Posting no link is far from exculpatory.

Do ppl really think the OP's 2nd post reads like someone who even read the replies?

If so, maybe I'm wrong.

But I doubt it after re-reading the thread & PM.

I've been reading here for a while, including many threads on what to do after a glutening & don't remember anyone recommending aloe juice. I didn't just randomly doubt the OP's intentions.
