  1. @knitty kitty update.. it works I soaked them overnight with glucosamine and although I’m still recovering from the last batch I don’t feel glutened. I’ll wait until I’m healed a bit more before trying again but pretty sure I’m just getting the tail end symptoms of the previous attempt, doesn’t seem to have worsened by eating the glucosamine soaked seed...
  2. Cooking them with chilli flakes probably didn’t help, keep up the good work @knitty kitty , you’re amazing
  3. @knitty kitty wow! That is really interesting so it might not be a contamination issue, I’ll get some glucosamine to try, thank you
  4. There’s an advert for ‘gliadin’ on my screen, has anyone tried pre soaking seeds in it?
  5. Not sure if it’ll work as I’ve never had stones but lots of blood and mucus. I’ve found that kefir helps, I’m pretty dependent on it. I’ve recommended it to lots of people with gut problems of all sorts and it seems to help most of them. I’d collect some of the stones and see if you can get them lab tested.
  6. Hi everyone, I’d really like to be able to eat pumpkin seeds but this is the second time trying them, this time a different type, and got glutened again. has anyone tried washing them first? Soap and vinegar maybe? Or soaking them in probiotics, kefir/kombucha?
  7. Wow, I hadn’t seen the iodine levels. It probably depends a lot on what they’re fed too, I think the reason the amino acid ratios are different is because their dietary needs are more specific than chickens. I’ve not noticed any issues with them causing DH but I’ve not had them long. Chickens can be used in the same way to make omegas more bioavailable but the...
  8. Thanks @Wheatwacked this is useful information, I didn’t realise sweet potatoes were so high or that the average intake had gotten so high in 6. I’ve started keeping quail to convert epa into dha omegas in the eggs, they have a better range of amino acids than chicken eggs and the depth of flavour is incredible.
  9. Probably this, I tried some thinking they might be ok being gluten free and spent the rest of this week bloated and bleeding in loads of pain. Haven’t been this bad in ages, seems to be a more severe reaction after switching to gluten free. Also burgers are often made with bread crumbs as a binder, same with sausages.
  10. How long does this take on average? So I should take all the recommended supplements until my villi recover and then stop taking all but the D3?
  11. Kitty probably knows more about this but I think the problem is if you have celiac then the villi in your small intestine gets damaged so you can’t absorb nutrients properly from food. I only eat highly nutrient dense foods but feel much better since I started taking all the supplements. I reckon I must’ve been deficient.
  12. Are you taking it with magnesium? Apparently that’s important. Kitty was saying 500mg a day of B1 with magnesium for three days to see if it’s going to work.
  13. Found this re. Maltodextrin, probably not great for celiacs even if it is gluten free.. ‘maltodextrin can negatively impact gut health. For example, one studyshowed that maltodextrin can alter the composition of your gut bacteria in a way that makes you more susceptible to disease. It does this by suppressing the growth of the beneficial bacteria i...
  14. I’ve always been a bit worried about taking supplements because I don’t know much about them so might end up doing more harm than good but the HCL worked so well I’ve stocked up on all the other recommended ones, B complex, magnesium citrate, D3, vit c, benfotiamine, chelated copper and zinc. Not cheap but I’m determined not to spend the rest of my d...
  15. Hi @knitty kitty. Thanks for the info, I was feeling loads better on 100mg of the HCL but then read more of your posts so increased it to 500mg at the same time as my benfotiamine 250mg arrived in the post and it’s been knocking me out. I was worried the benfotiamine wasn’t gluten free but maybe I just need to reduce the HCL a bit. I drink a lot of ...
  16. This gives me hope, my issues with it were intermittent which is what made me think it was cross contamination but I’ve been eating loads of thiamine so maybe it could be worth trying to reintroduce it. The gluten free one listed on Amazon is apparently no longer labelled as such on the packaging so it’ll have to be a gamble on the regular stuff.
  17. I’ve started growing 4 different varieties of potatoes and 2 types of quinoa, that’s almost a different carb option for each day of the week! Ordering some oca tubers so we’ll see how that goes. Similar to potatoes but with a lemon flavour apparently, not tried any yet.
  18. Apologies, I just double checked where I read this in an article about cross contamination of rice with gluten and it was referring to gluten in restaurant food labelled gluten free, not rice specifically. It did mention that it might cause similar symptoms though, so could be it’s this that has caused me to avoid it and not cross contamination as I...
  19. I read that on average 30% of rice is cross contaminated with gluten but you can get gluten free on Amazon.
  20. It’s scary how information is being censored, I tried using iodine directly on DH and it was making it worse so switched to essential oils which work great. Now even using it on cuts seems to cause problems elsewhere on my body but it’s hard to know for sure with accidental gluten ingestion and only recently realising about oats also being potential fac...
  21. @MiriamW you might be right but it is amazingly effective at that concentration. Hopefully it’ll still work at a lower ratio, it makes sense to use the minimum effective dose so I’ll do some experimenting.
  22. @MiriamW I just found this re. dilution, opinion seems to have shifted since I looked it up, I’ll start diluting the lavender too. When I trained 10 years ago, I was taught that it was generally accepted to be safe to use lavender and tea tree essential oils undiluted on the skin. A drop applied neat to a specific area such as a spot, cut, burn, insect b...
  23. Thanks for pointing this out Miriam. I’ve just checked and the maximum dilution for tea tree is 15%, I’ve been using 33%! Neem can be used neat but it smells terrible, I put the extra tea tree in to mask the smell of the neem and haven’t had any issues but I’ll try 15% in the next batch and see if it’s as effective. I also use neat lavender essential...
  24. You can test your iodine levels at home with a ‘skin patch test’. Your skin only absorbs it if it’s needed. ’If the patch disappears or mostly disappears in less than 24 hours, it is supposed to indicate some degree of deficiency. Significant lightening or a complete disappearance in less than 18 hours is said to indicate a moderate to severe iodine ...
  25. Dr Robert Faust is worth looking up for info on humic acids, fulvic is the one with all the health benefits, anti viral, anti inflammatory, chelation ect.
