    Can you tell me more about the "mild chelation therapy?" Thank you!

    You can accurately test if you have not been eating gluten. You can do the stool based test from Enterolab.com without having eaten gluten in months. It is much more accurate than the blood tests. I got a panel where they do a gene test and an antibody test. When my gene test came back showing two copies, it proved that my child has at least one copy of it...

    I am going through something similar. Celiac with extensive food allergies, nutrient deficiencies and mercury toxicity. Taking B12 injections helped a lot for a while. I have also recently started taking a more bio-available form of folate. I'm actually taking a lot of supplements trying to support methylation/chelation and brain function. I got all my amalgam...

    I believe it's possible that smelling bread can makes celiacs sick. My family recently bought take out from a wonderful Lebonese restaurant. They make their own flat bread. We ordered it because we were going to a dinner party and wanted to share. It was still steaming and my little boy and I both got several full breaths of the fragrant steam. Almost immediately...

    I have felt the same and wonder if the hunger is due to the nutritional deficiencies that come with celiac. I am totally gluten-free for 6 months but still struggling with regaining my health. Sometimes I feel like I am starving but nothing sounds good. I wander the kitchen in a kind of tortured trance before sending myself off to bed. I guess this is why...

    Wow, all of this sounds familiar. I wonder what people are doing beyond avoiding foods to address their unwellness. I have to avoid gluten, dairy, soy, corn and sugar cane. Just recently I've been able to eat eggs for the first time in years which is great! Some things outside of dietary changes that have really, really helped me with feeling better: ...

    P.S. One other thing that really helps (and I don't know why) is apple cider vinegar. A tablespoon a couple times a day. You want the unfiltered unpasteurized kind. The best tasting one I've found is Bragg's. It makes a huge difference in my child's behavior (he has the gluten sensitivity gene too), which makes sense given how much better it makes me feel...

    My experience and current understanding are that gluten sensitivity can cause some serious nutritional malabsorbtion issues over years. You can get tested for some of the common ones (B12, D, calcium) or you can just try supplementing and see if it helps. I know that B12 made an astounding difference in my brain fog and it only took about 20 minutes (the...

    Unfortunately Boiron's homeopathics are all made from dairy and sugar (two things that my son and I are allergic to). Can't they figure out a base in which to put their homeopathics that isn't a common allergen?

    Aack! I wish someone would put "homeopathic or herbal tinctures" on the list of possibly unsafe foods. I have been taking a tincture every night, never suspecting that it contained gluten. I have been struggling with not feeling well even though I've been gluten free (or thought I was) for nearly six months. The other one that has totally got me is olives...

    I just noticed that transglutaminase is the main ingredient in some hair product I just bought. I am wondering the same thing as Ibd--will this make me feel worse?

    Try B12 supplement. See Open Original Shared Link . There is also information on this site about how celiac causes B12 deficiency, which creates a reaction to alcohol, plus insomnia. Not to say that any of us need alcohol, but if you are deficient you will feel better overall and be less reactive if you get your levels back up. I take 100 mcg of a Methyl...

    Supplementing the amino acid l-tyrosine really helps my brain fog (almost immediately). If you are B12 deficient, supplementing will make you feel better almost immediately. B-12 supplements can reduce reaction to sulfites. Google "b12 deficiency" for more info.

    Hi Jason, Have you tried supplementing B-12? See this: Open Original Shared Link I found your post because I was experiencing same symptoms in response to alcohol, plus insomnia. The symptoms went away for a couple months and then came back. I finally figured out that the difference was I had run out of a B-12 supplement I had been taking. So I bought...
