I could really do with some help :) please...

I can't find anywhere on the internet where anyone suggests helpful foods during the gluten and casein withdrawals. my boyfriend is going through the casein withrawals at the moment, only 3 days in :( so at least 3 weeks to go.... just figured out that that has been the thing doing him in, as well as gluten and wheat of course (bit of a mine field) now i cant believe i didn't realise earlier. he's been glutened over and over by phony "gluten free" products and all of that, that apparently arent actually reliable, again only just found out. i feel like its an endless cycle of doom and no end in sight, its been almost a year since the first gluten withdrawals! he's horribly depressed as well as all the other physical symptoms and i'm so worried about giving him food that'll agravate the symptoms, any help would be really appreciated. thanks in advance :)

Go with fresh whole homecooked foods. Meat and potatoes, fish, chicken, fruit and veggies etc. I am curious what gluten free foods he having problems with? For some of us stuff like soy or bean flour can be a problem leading us to think we are reacting to gluten when we really aren't.

Tell us what his favorite foods are and maybe someone can be a bit more helpful on that end.

I noticed you are new to the board. Welcome and do read as much as you can here as there is much more to the gluten free lifestyle than just food. For example you need to make sure your lipsticks etc are gluten free and if you are a gluten eater you need to brush your teeth before you kiss. There are many things that the doctors don't tell us when we are first diagnosed which can keep us ill longer.

I can't explain everything but I do know my body reacts more or less violently to different types of gluten. I am not sure of all of them but soy dosn't usually bother me too much. Wheat and barley will have me laid up for days.

      So I've been eatin no carbs in the evening and only a bit for my lunch so a big reduction. Well, made no difference, in fact it's actually got even worse. So everything I do makes it get worse. I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown...

      It's important to correct the B12 deficiency first, replenishing the stores of B12 in the body within organs and tissues. As more B12 becomes available, the body will adjust how much folate to absorb from the diet. Dietary folate sources include leafy greens, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts, and liver. (Avoid spinach due to high oxalates and risk...

      Vitamin B9 (Folate): The UL for Folic Acid is set at 1,000 mcg (1 mg) per day for adults. This limit primarily applies to synthetic folic acid found in supplements and fortified foods, not naturally occurring folate in food. High intake of folic acid can mask the symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency, which can lead to neurological damage if left untreated....

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      This may seem non-relevant but I thought I'd add it here anyway to see what anyone thinks. Many might dismiss it but that's OK. I went through the entire history of this condition from its onset in 2010 or so, including the things that flare it up, and the timeline of what made it worse, the medications that worked and didn't, in ChatGPT (rolleyes I know lol)  and supplied it with all the clinical evidence I've had from tests etc.... After hours of "discussing" with it and finding research it "concluded" it's a chronic neuroplastic sensitization syndrome but of course said I should only get a proper diagnosis from a  doctor. When I saw the doctor on 9th February because this got worse he looked through all my medical history and the course of the "condition". I didn't tell him I'd used ChatGPT or mention what I thought it is because I still don't really know until I have a formal diagnosis. He came with the same conclusion as ChatGPT. Just thought it was an interesting co-incidence perhaps. As for myself, I'm not forming any conclusions til I can really know exactly what's happening and why and what stops it. Only then can I truly know.

      So I've been eatin no carbs in the evening and only a bit for my lunch so a big reduction. Well, made no difference, in fact it's actually got even worse. So everything I do makes it get worse. I said this to the doctor. He said he definitely thinks it's a neuroplastic pain condition where I've sensitized my nerves to max volume and now the pain has outgrown the medication max dose even though there is nothing physically wrong with my body. A bit earlier I had violent shocking evil burning nerve pain that made me nearly pass out and want to die again, also noticed this seems to be associated with sudden water retention. I've made hardly any pee in nearly 12 hours and despite drinking loads. Mouth is super dry. I am getting the "correct" sort of this when I've finished the current ones, so not long now. Can only get it on the internet here. Then I can say how it might change anything.

      It's important to correct the B12 deficiency first, replenishing the stores of B12 in the body within organs and tissues.    As more B12 becomes available, the body will adjust how much folate to absorb from the diet.  Dietary folate sources include leafy greens, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts, and liver.  (Avoid spinach due to high oxalates and risk of kidney stone formation.). Folate level should be checked in future just in case Celiac malabsorption affects it.   Thiamine deficiency can be found with B12 deficiency.  B12, Pyridoxine B6, and Thiamine B1 all are involved with nerve health and nerve transmission.  These three vitamins together to improve nerve health better than just one of them alone.  They relieve neuropathy and pain, and improve brain function.  You're being an amazing mom for advocating for your daughter's health!  Hurrah! Interesting Reading: B Vitamins in the nervous system: Current knowledge of the biochemical modes of action and synergies of thiamine, pyridoxine, and cobalamin https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6930825/ Concomitant Vitamin B1 and Vitamin B12 Deficiency Mimicking Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9887457/ Thiamin metabolism in vitamin B6 or vitamin B12 deficient rats https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/859042/ B Vitamin Deficiencies and Associated Neuropathies https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12855320/#:~:text=The neurotropic B vitamins -B1,neuropathies [3%2C 4].

This limit primarily applies to synthetic folic acid found in supplements and fortified foods, not naturally occurring folate in food. High intake of folic acid can mask the symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency, which can lead to neurological damage if left untreated. This is because folic acid supplementation can correct anemia caused by B12 deficiency without addressing the underlying neurological damage. Some studies suggest that excessive folic acid intake might increase the risk of certain cancers, such as colorectal cancer, particularly in individuals who have precancerous lesions.
