  1. The only best thing I do is try to find gluten free substitutes.....example....gluten free pizza etc.
  2. OMG.....you're right. I am going to study and try to remember all that info. you have provided. From B1 to B12....and different names for each one and how well they are absorbed etc I had previously learned about the different forms of Magnesium. Like most people I just assumed that magnesium is magnesium. Maybe they should come out with a book...
  3. Just checked....the Centrum Silver men 50 plus multiple vitamins have Thiamin and lots of other vitamins and minerals. There are Centrum Silver 50 plus for women also. If some of the vitamins and minerals listed don't meet the daily recommended requirement you can add to those specific ones with additional extra supplements.
  4. Anong the vitamins and minerals I supplement with on a rotating basis....not all of them everyday except a daily multiple vitamin, , I'll have to see if my Centrum silver daily vitamin has Thiamine in it. I was buying the B vitamins separately now I just get the B Complex. Other than that the small amount of tingling/numbness especially in my right foot...
  5. Bingo. I guess we all do what we can with what we know and hope for the best. Would be nice if the human body had a reset button and we could put in a new operating system. LOL
  6. BTW.....Other than vitamin D supplementation, it's amazing how much vitamin D levels in the body can be increased by even short periods of sunlight exposure. I have to ask if there is a limit to how much vitamin D would be harmful? Apparently there are some supplements that will be stored in the body and above a certain level can be toxic.....and some...
  7. Interesting observation of the possible association of a symptom that can be affected either positively or negatively by minerals or nutrients. I have some numbness and tingling on my right foot apparently the result of neuropathy. From what I've read there can be a number of causes and vitamin B12 deficiency and supplementation has helped some people....
  8. I guess that is the ultimate goal...a new strain of gluten free wheat. That would still leave barley and maybe (oats?) (etc?) with gluten.
  9. After reading all this scientific research info., it is interesting and I am impressed with the research thus far although I must confess that with some of that info. my eyes were glazing over. :-). One positive thing I can say at this point, I can buy gluten free pizza's in the grocery store that aren't bad.
  10. Was reading that a certain probiotic bacteria might be able to break down gluten.....but the real solution might be to develop a new strain of wheat etc that is gluten free? And..... is it true that in ancient times wheat etc. didn't have gluten until the advent of the new (GMO)? strains. of wheat etc?
  11. I guess we're all doing the best we can with what we know. Maybe one day there will be a cure of some kind. Stay tuned!
  12. I'm not an expert but if it were me I would return to gluten for a short period of time and see if the symptoms return. Apparently there is just a difference between gluten intolerance and Celiac where antibodies attack your system...a form of autoimmune disease. One thing I believe...gluten isn't good for anyone....hard to digest.
  13. True......but then I wonder how many people even know what gluten is and where it comes from etc.
  14. I had that same thought......if a friend has some symptoms that seem familiar to me I would certainly mention that possibility. I can imagine if you mentioned about getting tested to some people you might have them give you that "deer in the headlights" look. I do know that with some people you even mention Celiac and they have no clue. One good thing...
  15. Absolutely. As I had mentioned before, if it were feasible and/or possible, perhaps diagnosis of children by doctors and/or pediatricians for the antibodies would be very beneficial. Perhaps it could be considered a silent disease doing it's damage until really serious symptoms occur?
