ARCHIVED Naturopath Worth The Money?
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I was mainly interested in doing a candida/parasite cleanse to see if thats the source of my symptoms. If I see the naturopath, she could help me order the stool tests which would help me see if I do have that problem. And if that doesn't work out, maybe she could explore other options. On the other hand, I was thinking I could just order those herbal... -
Hi, I'm thinking about seeing a naturopath next week. She has good reviews and is a graduate of Bastyr University, but is quite expensive at $275 for the initial visit (1 hour long). I don't think my insurance plan covers naturopathic medicine (I have a student Blue Cross insurance plan). I have other concerns besides gluten for my symptoms that I want...

Open Original Shared Link Heres an interesting article which talks about how digestive problems early on in life can increase the risk of depression and anxiety. Its good to see more research showing how problems with the gut/other parts of the body influences the mind. There is so much emphasis on the effect of mind over body, but not enough the other...

ARCHIVED Can Natural Antifungal Get Rid Of Candida Affecting Whole Body?
superfob posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi, I have a lot of symptoms which I think might be attributed to candida/yeast overgrowth. I was wondering, will natural antifungals (caprylic acid, oregano oil, olive leaf, GSE, etc) get rid of candida symptoms outside of the digestive track? Symptoms such as tingling/pain in body, muscle weakness and soreness, itchy skin, hand tremors, brain fog, etc... -
ARCHIVED Help With Candida Elimination
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Thanks for your response. I am actually feeling more and more like I have a significant Candida problem. I know that eliminating gluten has definately helped my digestion, but am now wondering if Candida is at the root of my other food sensitivities and other symptoms. I'm wondering if I should see a naturopath to get this figured out, or to try it... -
ARCHIVED Gluten Associated Sensitivity & Cross Reactive Foods
superfob replied to laura4669's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
hello, what kind of blood test did you take to determine the cross-reactive foods? I find myself reacting (mostly neurologically) to different foods, and do not know how to deal with it as I feel I like my body needs a lot of calories but I'm having a hard time due to all these food restrictions. -
ARCHIVED Methyl B12 Spray Makes Me Super Tired..
superfob replied to JSegura226's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Hello, Have you had your B 12 levels tested? Anyways, I have read that many people will experience a worsening of symptoms before it gets better, and it is a sign that you are deficient. However, I took Methyl B12 myself as well, and did not have a very good experience with it. I have switched over to a sublingual hydroxocobalamin, made by the company... -
hmmm, this is really interesting i was eating a lot of rice because I read how it was the least allergenic grains, but the last two days I stopped eating rice and noticed an increase in energy i just had some rice, and i felt a little tired and foggy very soon after eating it its definately not a blood sugar issue, so maybe i'm reacting to the protein...

ARCHIVED Trouble Eating But Need To Eat
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yes, small meals definitely helps. I think I'm going to try to get more liquid calories so I don't feel too full all the time. I believe I was tested for H. Pylori during my endoscopy and it was negative. I'm pretty much eating all whole foods right now, nothing processed except for odwalla juice drinks when I don't have time to prepare food. I... -
Hi, Does anyone have a loss of appetite, trouble eating, but at the same time feel like they are starving? I feel like I need to eat a lot of food - and I get bad symptoms when I don't. However, its been extremely hard to eat large meals. I don't have much of an appetite and I get full really easily - like it feels like my stomach is full or digestion...

ARCHIVED Gluten Free Natural Shampoo
superfob posted a topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Hi, Does anyone know of a good gluten free shampoo that is natural? Something my current shampoo is making me itch (Head and Shoulders), so I need something else (btw, I am a guy). And also, looking for something that is actually more natural vs. labeled natural with a bunch of chemicals. Thanks -
Hi, I have read a lot about the connection between Candida and various health problems. I didn't really think it was an issues for me, but now I am wondering if some of my problems can be resolved by getting rid of it, along with a gluten free diet. I have some minor digestive symptoms, but bad fatigue/brain fog/neurological tingling and pain/hypoglycemia...
-
Just wondering, what do you guys usually do when you have bad brain fog/or when you use to have it, or with other health issues? I'm still trying to recover my mental function (think I might have been glutened recently, or have sensitivities I haven't worked out), but I feel like a zombie (or I'm drugged) all the time. I can't speak with others clearly, understand...

ARCHIVED Goodbye Gallbladder
superfob replied to goodnews's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Sorry to hear about your gallbladder. I am not in the same boat, but I was previously noticing pale stools and pain which is located near my gallbladder after eating. I went online to search for a cause, and stumbled upon an article talking about the relationship between food intolerances and gallbladder pain: "Attacks of gallbladder pain are most frequently... -
ARCHIVED Biotics Research Bio-D-Mulsion Forte
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Just called them. They representative said all their products are gluten free. -
Has anyone taken Biotics Research Bio-d-Mulsion Forte? I have a bottle of this, and its spose to be a good vitamin D product, but I just wanted to make sure that its gluten free. The ingredients looks ok: water and gum arabic emulsifier base, and sesame oil. It does not say anything on the bottle about gluten or other allergens. I will try to call...

ARCHIVED Multiple Biopsies Taken, Only 1 Read?
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hmmm, I think the "x6" part was specifically referring to the duodenum. There are other parts in the report where they talk about taking biopsies for the ileum and colon. I guess the way I interpreted the report, was that my doctor took multiple samples during the procedure, but only sent off one to the lab. O, and my doctor does know that Celiac... -
ARCHIVED Multiple Biopsies Taken, Only 1 Read?
superfob posted a topic in Post Diagnosis, Recovery & Treatment of Celiac Disease
Hi, I just got my pathology report in the mail. All my results came back negative with "No significant pathologic abnormality". I tested TTG negative and AGA IgA positive, so I was hoping for some inflammation or increased lymphocytes, or partial atrophy. I'm reading the description of my biopsies, and for duodenum it says "Received in formalin is... -
ARCHIVED Poor Pancreatic Function?
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I do still have my gallbladder - never had issues with it in the past. The pain does not seem to be influenced by what I'm doing - if anything it comes after I eat (but its usually pretty mild). I've had pain in my back previously, but I didnt really associate it with gallbladder/pancreas - cause I was getting pains randomly all over my body after starting... -
Hi, I've gone gluten free for 3 weeks now, and am starting to feel a different in terms of mood and energy (not significant, but its definately improving). I just had a thought today that I might be having problems with my pancreas. I've done all the celiac testing so far, everything was negative except my AGA IgA - so I guess I am gluten sensitive and...

ARCHIVED Neurological Symptoms From Intolerances
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
eatmeat4good and yolo, how did you find out you had an intolerance to SA? I'm guessing the only way I'll figure it out is if I try the low SA diet, but wow it seems soo limited. How long did it take for you on a low SA diet to feel better? I don't remember if I have ever taken aspirin or ibuprofen actually, I may have never taken them in fact. I don... -
ARCHIVED Neurological Symptoms From Intolerances
superfob replied to superfob's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hmmm, you're right, it might be cross contamination I will try to contact Justin's and see if there is a chance of that, from their website it seems safe Do your products contain traces of other nuts? Our nut butters are manufactured on equipment shared with peanuts and tree nuts. In addition, our peanut butter cups are manufactured on equipment shared... -
ARCHIVED Neurological Symptoms From Intolerances
superfob posted a topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Hi, I just had some almond butter after eating just meat, vegetables, sweet potatoes, and rice during the past two weeks (been gluten free for two weeks, figured I'd eliminate all the other allergens as well). It seems that I am intolerant of almonds, just a few minute after eating it, I could feel an increase in brain fog and a pressure feeling on the... -
Hi, I have been taking Jarrows sublingual methyl b12 over the past couple of months due to B12 deficiency symptoms and decreasing serum levels. I noticed an increase in nerve pain and muscle twitches in random places over my body - which I have read is a sign that I am deficient and the nerves are healing. The thing is, whenever I take a 5 mg tablet...
