    I cured my gut in the end too. I'll never cure from the secondary condition but gut wise I'm fine. I no longer eat carbs, well.. Not many. For me that provides enough natual immune suppression to let the gut heal. I have the opinion that grains with gluten highlighted and sugar with fructose highlighted is killing you all. In the end rather than ingest bacteria...

    Just a note about the antifungals. I did diflucan and nystatin for many months at one stage. They arent very effective on candida and diflucan is a harsh drug, imho youll achive more on your diet but itll take a long time. Fungi can lay dormant for... Years no problem, its no instant thing. Try the antifungals but keep a watch on side effects and blood tests...

    Celiac disease is genetic , the damage causes secondary auto immune disease. You wont see anyone from pure african stock with it because they haven't crossed out with other human species with the stronger immune systems. They will still get messed up by anti biotics though. It should be a given you dont eat gluten if theres genes or family history(50%) of...

    Im only posting general knowledge. Wikipedia ok, but i cant be searching links for every little forum on the net. For years all i did was read papers and visit specialists until i was able to find my diagnosis. I learnt a lot, im still not 100% but no one else is doing any better than I am. Its worth paying attention. Just this once ill google for you to...

    There are recent studies which show a much greater incidence of immune system disease in kids which have had antibiotics in early life, either at birth or as infants. The one I read was pretty much no antibiotics no disease it was about as conclusive as you get in a study. I do think antibiotics are the major source of modern disease, because they mess so...

    I was vegan for 20 years. Hardened strict, saving the world and all that. MAJOR mistake for HLA gene Europeans. Some people thrive as a vegetarian some get ill. If you are not a glowing eyes example with perfect thick skin Id be getting onto a fat based diet before serious damage is done. Some genetic groups just dont do well with the heightened legume and...

    You can probably read up on immune systems somewhere and how it is trained by gut flora in the early years. Im just repeating what ive learned from my doctors. You can sometimes achieve cures in auto immue type diseases in young children, usually not in adults. Although they think the adult immune system can change but they relearning must be veeeeery slow...

    Catch up growth is a real thing but its something that happens strongly early on with kids that got low quaility/not enough breast milk or not enough sleep in the first 6 months. My son was below the 5th percentile from 2 months to 6 months but had huge growth once he started solids. At age 2 hes above average and continues to grow at a 100th percentile rate...

    Good theory but Im going to suggest your daughters immune problems came from damage in her youth. Kids immune systems are set in their ways by the time they are eight. If your having trouble with milk , celiac disease is already there years ealier.

    Your doctor is right. If you have both dq2 and dq8 you should not risk eating gluten. Also people with celiac disease are easy to pick for anyone with some experience. The hla genes are inherented from ancient humans, it gives you immune system advantages but isnt really compatable with modern processed life. It runs deeper than just gluten imho.

    It can take years to get better, some people dont recover. B12 shots will fix most of your curent problems within hours of the first shot. Theres a chance youve developed further immune system disease but hopefully not. Youll have to find your own way with foods but my tip is more fats, less carbs.

    We are going to come down pretty harshly on this because the long term undiagnosed are living with unfixable problems. Keep eating gluten and you may as well roll a dice on your next autoimmune disease. Get unlucky there and you can end up with organ failure. Youll be at a very high risk of cancer, brain disease etc. Its like dead serious buisness, for you...

    I had EoE or something similar when my celiac was at its worst. Which then became a full on eosinophilic disease. Kimuras disease most often involes the saliva glands. An IgE test will confirm or clear you of that easy enough. (thats what I have). It also often causes kidney problems (blood pressure etc). Almost impossible rare but I think you warrent an...

    You have auto immune disease , positive bloods. You have celiac disease. Genius idea to do nothing, wait for the damage to be permanent, wait till you get t cell cancer, hodgkins. Great idea:). STOP EATING THAT SHIT TODAY, thats what any sane doctor would tell you. Ps have the gene test, if you have that and eat enough bread you will get celiac disease.....

    Hey thats great you kept it up. Ive had one break because I got very acid and some muscle wastage but now im doing better, i take whey powder for extra protien now. My kidney function more than doubled and my inflamation got less after 3 weeks in ketosis and held there since. The strange thing is I can now tell when im going into ketosis with 100% accuracy...

    I actually never had the antibody test, I just quit gluten on the advise of my doctor who suggested I was probably celiac due to my daily abdominal pains etc. They went away within a couple of days of stopping gluten for the first time in my life, I was"sick in the guts" as a kid, adult, always... Later on I had the gene test and was positive on that, I always...

    What i meant was in winter europeans had no carbs. Im assuming your european since 99% of celiecs and autoimmuners are. Mixing carbs and high fat diets isnt a natural thing it seems.

    My son just turned two. Hes not on a ketogenic diet by any means but other than very rarely eating rice hes never eaten grains. My family as a whole has far to much trouble with grains to risk his health on a food with next to zero nutritional value besides its inflammatory effects. Hes grown far more than his peers since they started solids, granted he...

    Your body will use LOTS of water to process the fats, so you have to drink plenty of water, keep drinking enough to keep your pee clear. Keep the cocconut oil intact up, help a lot if you find a yumny tasting brand, most dont taste good. Youll probaby have legs you cant stop jiggling around after a very high fat meal for a week or two. Maybe a faster heart...

    Nvsmon, I felt quite bad for a week or so but then I felt good. You can get the pee test strips to see when you get in ketosis from any pharmacy.

    nvsmom, I haven't had the tests yet. I've been reading up a lot on the diet and people that are on it. You had to take into account most people are doing this diet simply for weight loss not for disease control/cure. Also a lot of people are not doing it very well, many just eat bacon and butter... They lose weight and they are happy. You read the occasional...

    Thanks guys, yes it works very well indeed. I was so confidant after two weeks on the diet I walked into my doctors office and proclaimed I was cured lol. He sat me down and was like o K.. but your kidney results are not good (a test I took about a week before starting the diet, I actually started the diet because the nurse drawing my blood had been making...

    ezgoindude, you need to test out the Ketogenic diet. I'm finding it to be the cure all for gut problems and a lot of other problems too. It's too long a story to type right now but I'll send you a pm when I have time about what I'm eating in detail and how to get into Ketosis.

    I'm just basically soaking everything I eat in oils. Mostly coconut Ghee and macadamia oil but also some animal fats. I'm eating a lot of eggs and meats but trying to get in leafy greens also and other low carb things like broccoli and cauliflower all served with oil/butter sauce of course. Nothing else has ever been able to suppress my immune system from...
