    I just looked at the country life coenzyme b. It has a lot of niacin in it. Does it make you flush? I weigh 100lbs and really sensitive to side effects. I already take a prenatal with b in it and sublingual b12. I might try them. How many do you take a day maybe I can take a 1/2 dose.

    oh yeah I take all of those. I do feel better when I take it easy on sugar. I tend to over do it sometimes with food when I pms. I crave heavier foods. I am taking epsom salt baths and getting massages every 2 weeks. Seems to help. I have been stool tested 2x for candida and its neg both times. I take tons of acidopholis and enzymes. I guess Ill go more on...

    Thanks for the suggestions. I do avoid nightshades alot of the time. I do have fillings but not sure if they have mercury. Got them in 96'. Im pretty text book celiac right down to a parent having it so Im pretty sure thats it. I was just wondering if anyone had taken a while to get better. Does the nervous system take longer to heal? Can I eventually eat...

    Yes I have been there! I had to stop eating salad for a couple months or do a small one once a week. I still sometimes see whole lettuce in the toilet, though it is gradually getting better. I cook most veggies cause too much raw will give me gas and bloating still. Digestive enzymes and acidopholis have helped alot and eating rice or meat bfore the veggies...

    Hey guys, I am 4mos gluten free with a few setbacks from sauces and dressings. Ive been pretty good about the diet. I have my own utensils, etc. I find that I am still having symptoms of peripheral neuropathy and muscle pain/twitching. Its worse when Im menstrating or am really exhausted. Im taking all the vitamins recommended b12, magnesium, enzymes...

    How long did the detox last? I have 4mos gluten free and I have symptoms during menses and when I am fatigued. MY stomach is way better but I am still having tingling and some muscle twitching and pain. Better than before gluten-free though. I dont eat dairy and watch the soy intake. All my blood tests are normal. Is this just something that takes time? And...

    I also use Earth Balance margarine and I really like it. Coffeemate is GFDF. Thats what I use. There is a creamer from silk too that is good if you can tolerate soy. Personally it gives me gas, but the coffeemate is good and has all kinds of flavors.

    Thank you!! The same with me! I heard that everyday! Stop thinking about it!! I could not get preg to save my life and when I did it did not stick and I was so weak and starved!! I had Celiac all along!

    Black Strap is good but gross unless you know how to use it which I dont, but I worked at a healthfood store for a long time. I found this stuff to be great! I bled alot during my miscarriage and I lost a lot of iron. This is easy on the body and stomach! I loved it! AND...its gluten free!! Open Original Shared Link

    I take most of them with breakfast. The enzymes with meals, cal/mag at night. The brand B12 now is by the Health food store I used to work for. But the methyl one in any good brand is good natures plus or whatever. Im a firm believer that supplementation is essential when you have an ailment. They do work!! Get good brands!! They will absorb very well with...

    I take a prenatal, all women of child bearing age should. I also take DHA, acidopholis, digestive enzymes, sublingual b12, cal/mag, resveratrol, and evening primrose for PMS. I think these are all good for anyone but the cal/mag and b12 are essential for celiacs we are often defficient. As for saggy neck I think vitamin E oil may help or find someone in your...

    ARCHIVED Dh Rash?

    Mrs. Smith posted a topic in Dermatitis Herpetiformis

    I have tiny water blisters on my left foot toes. My hands are very dry and ichy elbows. Does this sound like DH? It is winter and it has gotten worse. It clears up for a few weeks and then flares up again. Is there anything I can do to help this or is it just like every other symptom that I have to give time for healing and be patient?
  13. Mrs. Smith
    I hear you girl! I tried for 3yrs! The one time I did get pregnant I was taking evening primrose oil and it seemed to make me more fertile. If you do take it and you get pregnant you have to stop taking it, but it seemed to work while trying! Good Luck! Im going to try again when I have one year gluten free.
  14. Mrs. Smith
    I am literally crying while reading this. I had tried 3yrs to get pregnant with one misscarrage and finally gave up. About a week ago I realised that its all gluten related! I am so angry and sad but VERY hopeful. Im currently not trying but this makes me think after I heal some more I may just try again! Thank you!
  15. Mrs. Smith
    Digmom- just curious what other symptoms cleared up that you had no idea were gluten related? I am 4 mos gluten free and trying to be patient, I get frustrated when I have residual symptoms. Just the other day I realised my infertillity and miscarrage were prob. gluten related and just started sobbing. I hope one day I can be free of all of the symptoms.

    IBD thank you so much for your reply. Im ecxited to see if anyone has gone to Paris too. Ill check out these links.
  18. Mrs. Smith
    There is one by Bakery on Main that is really good. It has a lot of nuts and corn flakes. There is a cranberry one that is DANK!
  19. Mrs. Smith
    I feel you, too. I am 3 mos. gluten free and I go from feeling really great to having the symptoms again. They are getting milder every time. I am really starting to believe people on here when they say it takes a long time. Being virtually poisoned our whole life on top of being very nutrient deficient, will in my opinion take a long time to overcome. Im...

    Has anyone travelled to Paris, France? I am going there to visit my Dad in Sept. and need help on choosing resturaunts and markets. Tips anyone? This is my first time out of the country since being diagnosed with Celiac. Thank you.

    I could not get pregnant to save my life then I was working at a health food store and not really eating alot of wheat and got pregnant and had a very early miscarrage. My really bad symptoms started exactly 1yr later.
  22. Mrs. Smith
    I know what you mean. My symptoms build up too. I completely stopped eating out and I had to quit soda too and I love coke. It stopped my diareah though. I still have muscle pain at times but massage, excersise and sticking to my diet are slowly helping. I think lunch meat gives me a reaction too. I had pastrami 2 days in a row and felt like crap. Just be...

    I have Greenpans! You guys should try them! They are scrach resistant, non-porus, and they dont emit those bad chemicals that nonsticks do. I mostly clean with a dishwasher but I never thought about the sponge! Another item I have to dedicate just to my lifestyle. Thanks!

    I take Solaray Multidophilus. Its dairy-free. 3 billion of acidophilus bifidum and bulgarius. I take like 4-6 a day in the morning or before bed. They help my digestion alot and also help with gas from raw veggies. I love them. Expensive, but a quality brand. Capsules and Vegetarian as far as I know.
  25. Mrs. Smith
    My husband will not go gluten free although he is VERY supportive and I hate to deprive my kids if I dont have to. I already have my own toaster and all stainless cookware its all cleaned in the dishwasher. Any suggestions for me since I dont think I can do the whole household gluten free? I have my own cupboard and drawer in the kitchen and they know not...
