    This is just my opinion, but with a little research you'd find there is a strong connection in the scientific literature for all of these disorders. Addison's is basically adrenal fatigue taken to the worst extreme and you will feel very, very fatigued with Addison's. Hypothyroidism can poop you out, (and depress you) too. There is no 'quick fix' so gear...

    I'm blood type A. Theoretically I should do well as a vegetarian or a vegan according to the principles of the 'blood type diet'. And in fact, when I was a vegan for 2 years my lab tests improved in a number of areas and I reversed out of type 2 diabetes. Alas, I discovered the hard way that being a vegan isn't always the best long-term choice for a person...

    As a follow-up to my earlier post, I'm having some modest success in losing weight after shifting to a 'Paleo" diet. I determined that in addition to being intolerant to gluten and casein, I also don't tolerate non-gluten grains very well either. The 'Paleo' diet' focuses on real whole foods, and eliminates out grains, dairy, legumes and processed foods....

    As a follow up to my previous post, I'd like to add a few new items. Alas, simply going Gluten-free Casein-free hasn't caused me to lose weight, so I'm doing further research. It appears that it's not uncommon for celiac/gluten intolerant patients to react unfavorably to millet, soy, and buckwheat even while avoiding gluten grains. [from Book: Good Food...

    I'm also new to the forum. I haven't have the issues with the severe weight loss, but I certainly can relate to the huge gain, fatigue, etc. I'm gluten intolerant but not celiac. It's seems entirely possible that the weight gain combined with the fatigue and tendonitis/joint pain are related to adrenal function/thyroid function. Active celiac disorder...

    I think there are a lot of us (morbidly obese) people wandering around out there in search of answers. I didn't have a weight problem until about 12 years ago when I started putting on about 2 pounds a month, every month, in spite of diets and exercise. After a gain of over 100 pounds it sort of leveled out. But none of the medical people had much in the...

    I also was born with a cleft palate, repaired surgically when I was 19 months old (about 60 years ago). I recently tested to see if I had the genes for Celiac disorder (through Enterolab). I don't have the major Celiac genes but I do have a double copy of genes Enterolab identified for gluten sensitivity and am actively reacting to both gluten and casein...
