    The withdraw when I went gluten free was HORRIBLE but it passed in about 6 weeks. The cravings only seem to happen on the rare occasion that a bit of gluten sneaks in to my diet and are a signal to double check my food sources for gluten. Gluten is a VERY sneaky thing.

    WOW, I would be reluctant to do that too Mine was 1 pill then I mixed a powder into 2 liters of water and had to drink 8 oz every 15 to 30 min until it was gone. I started the prep at 3;30 and was done by 9;30 went to bed and got up once during the night and one more time in the morning and I was done. WOW I guess what the prep is makes a BIG difference

    there is a possibility that a gluten free diet could impact autoimmune thyroid diseases ( Hashimotos and Graves) but they still need to be monitored by a ENDO as does hyper and/or hypo thyroid .

    Last Thursday I had a colonoscopy. I am 54, have celiacs and have been having some symptoms that lead my doc to believe a colonscopy was in order. Actually my doc has been after me to have one for the last couple of years ,, something about being over 50 . I always have come up with excuses to put it off. Well my GI doc was not so easy to...

    WOW all I can say is WOW,,, I guess I can understand that it must be hard for family members to have their lives "inconvenienced" by a loved one being gluten free but considering the FACT it is our health that is at risk I do not expect to be intentionally disrespected by someone ,especially a family member

    I agree with Cass, I would strongly urge you to get a referral to an endocrinologist.If your current doc refuses your request it may be time to look for a new doc.

    Yes I had a DEXA scan last fall, it showed osteoporosis in my spine.I am 54. The test its self is one of the easiest ones I have ever done, no prep , no needles.

    I have depended on rice since going gluten free.I depended on rice during my elimination diet. There were months that just about all I could eat was meat and rice.I believe that is why my body now reacts to rice.I feel that a rotation diet works best for me now . The hard part is having enough safe foods to rotate As my leaky gut heals I am able to add...

    I was vegan for most of my adult life.For awhile when my gut was first starting to heal meat was just about the only thing my body tolerated . Since healing a bit I have been able to add back some fruits and veggies. My body does NOT tolerate most grains (in addition to gluten) .I have found lately I can tolerate a limited amount of corn in pure form...

    My colonoscopy is today. I called and talked to my GI doc about the prep and my concerns.I felt much better about things after talking with her. One of the nurses that will be in the room with me call and talked with me yesterday, to confirm my time ,ask if I had any concerns and to go over my recent renal function test. I am feeling comfortable...

    OMG I am sooooo glad you posted this. My daughters and I were MSG free long before we even knew what celiacs was. I was going to buy some L-Glutamine this weekend and start taking it. I am scared to try it now. Have you tried anything else for Leaky gut that has worked for you??
