Rachel, You are awesome! You (as I understand from your profile) don't have a problem with gluten, but have taken the time to research enzyme therapy for Celiac Disease/Gluten Intolerance. All of your posts have already backed up what I have been arguing about with a few of the other members. As far as I am concerned, you have explained yourself very...

Thanks, I know that is permissible, it's just that a lot of informative web pages also contain ads for related products. After the bashing, name calling and accusations of being a shill by another member, I'm being a bit cautious. I am a newbie here, even though I joined in January. I looked at this thread then and saw the negative attitude towards...

I agree. The human body produces it's own enzymes. Digestive enzymes are secreted from our salivary glands as well as the villi in our intestines. People with Celiac disease most likely have no or limited production of enzymes from the damaged villi. Some enzyme production may return as the villi heal after some time abstaining from gluten. The...

Thanks home_based_mom and everyone who has defended my views on Glutenease Rachel came out and defended my views on Glutenease and then you defended Rachel. I was a shill last night, but I think I'm in better graces tonight because of all of the support. I am saying thanks to everyone who voiced their good and bad experiences with Glutenease. I hope...

Tom, I have two daughters, ages 30 and 34 who both have all the signs of Gluten intolerance and very possibly it has gone far enough to be Celiac disease. I also have two female acquaintances in the same age group who have complained to me of the same symptoms. A good friend of mine who nearly died from Celiac disease has two daughters with the disease...

First of all, an apology to the entire board that I mentioned my website. I am currently trying to edit the post or have it removed. I am waiting for an answer how to do that since I had already edited it once. I am truly sorry, and the references to my website will be removed as soon as possible. I did not read the board rules, but have been to many...

Thanks Rachel, I appreciate you reading my posts and personal experiences with enzyme use to help me cope with the issue of cross contamination. I had a feeling there were others who wanted to speak up in favor of glutenease but were afraid of being bashed or intimidated. Since your post, there have been several others who have have posted their experiences...

Wollygimp, I wish I was getting paid for this. You can call me all the names you want, but I will continue to tell people about the attributes of Glutenease. You obviously haven't tried the product or you wouldn't be arguing against it and calling me a shill. If you are really so sure of your stand on the subject, check out this link: Open Original...

It is my understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) that endoscopies are taken by going through the esophagus and through the upper intestine and partially into the lower intestine. Biopsies are taken from the lower intestine. Biopsies and blood tests are the "accepted" test for Gluten allergy/Celiac disease. Anyway, my point is that the enzymes begin to...

It's not a scam and it's not really magical either. The enzymes only need to be able to break down one molecule in the complex chain called "Gluten". Enzymes "eat" thus, digest specific molecules they are designed to break down. Once the molecule is digested by the enzymes, there is no auto immune reaction because it is no longer seen as an enemy by our...

I'm fortunate to have a good herb store and a great herbalist near to my home (45 Miles). Here is a link to Enzymedica's store locator. Open Original Shared Link Hope this helps. Possibly you can buy direct from Enzymedica. Don't let the cost scare you. The stuff works. It costs me $22 a bottle of 60. Jack

Glad you read my reply. It really works! As I said, Acid Soothe works well for CC and added help with digestion if you need that. Helps a lot with heartburn and acid reflux. Be sure to ask questions at the restaurant when you eat out. Most people will be glad to find out for you if the food is reasonably safe (never know about CC). Hope you look at...

Just want to say that there are a lot of critics here who want to say that a product they never tried doesn't work. I have been gluten free for 5 years. At first, because of a lot of intestinal damage, I had a hard time digesting any food. I tried a product by Enzymedica called Acid Soothe. It contains many of the same properties as Glutenease in lower...

ARCHIVED I Just Want Them To Stop
Unclezack replied to VioletBlue's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I'm a newbie here, but not new to the gluten free lifestyle. I have been gluten free for nearly 5 years. I hope my experiences can help others. I am a 56 year old male and have been gluten intolerant since I was very young, but couldn't get anyone to pin down the problem. With the advice of a friend who has the disease and a very trusted herbalist, I...
