    Yes the multi vitamin I'm taking has minerals. It's this one - Open Original Shared Link That multi vitamin doesn't have much potassium or calcium in it (and I'm not consuming dairy) so I'm also taking a calcium/magnesium citrate supplement.

    I've been off and on lifting weights. Need to get more discipline with that and do it at least 5 times a week.

    I've been gluten/dairy free since June 3rd and once or twice a day (usually after eating a meal) I get brief chills on my scalp. Have any of you experienced this or heard of it? I know chills can be a symptom of opiate withdrawal, and gluten has to do with these same opiate receptors right?

    What's a good non dairy probiotic? And do you know if acne can be a symptom of gluten withdrawal?

    Yeah I heard chlorella can be a little harsh. I think it's okay for me but I will pay close attention to that. Good idea with the go a few days without supplements. Tomorrow I'm not going to take any and I'll see if I feel better, worse, or the same.

    No prescriptions. My multi vitamin is safe. As is my toothpaste and mouthwash. I'm taking a fish oil supplement, a selenium supplement, a chlorella supplement, and some whole leaf aloe vera juice daily. Those 4 things are supposed to help with intestinal issues (and I made sure they were all safe). I also make sure I put a couple tablespoons of extra...

    None. I make sure everything I eat is labeled gluten/dairy/soy free. I heard soy can cause similar problems as gluten.

    Correct. What's the difference between celiac and gluten intolerance or is it the same thing?

    I try to drink 8 glasses of water a day. I'm eating breakfast. Definitely eating a lot of protein and fruit, but not much veggies lol, only broccoli. It seems that about 3 or 4 hours after I wake up I start getting tired and then the tiredness just increases as the day goes on. Is that because my body is spending a lot of energy trying to heal?

    It seems as though the first 2 or 3 hours after I wake up I feel pretty close to normal. But as the day goes on the tiredness, extreme hunger, bloating, anxiety, headaches, and irritability seem to increase and by dinner time rolls around I feel like crap.

    The last time I ate cottage cheese (which contained gluten and obviously dairy) I got a terrible reaction which included suicidal thoughts. If you're saying I have to add back in these foods in order to get an accurate test result well then I'm not getting tested lol. I'll just continue on the gluten/dairy free diet and as time goes on if I feel better then...

    Okay so what type of doctor do I go to to get tested for a gluten and casein intolerance?
  13. ericsnow
    I know I wont be eating the gluten or wheat when I get the skin prick test, but if it gets into my blood stream is that not the same thing as eating it? I am going to a food allergy doctor to find out for sure whether I'm allergic to gluten and dairy. Is that not the type of doctor I should be going to for this?
  14. ericsnow
    Do you feel bad for a day? A couple days? A couple weeks? I ask because I've been gluten/casein free since June 3rd, and in July I'm going to an allergist to get the official diagnosis. I know they prick/inject you with a tiny bit of gluten/casein to see if you're allergic to it, so will this prick/injection set me back that much or should I not worry...

    I ate a bowl of gluten free cereal with gluten free peanut butter and this 100% fruit strawberry jelly mixed together. Within about 30-60 minutes of eating it I got 2 itchy bumps (hives?) on my right leg and I became super bloated. I also felt a little "out of it". And strangely enough the constant relentless hunger I've been experiencing the last week or...

    Did I have a gluten reaction to strawberry jelly yesterday evening? I ate a bowl of gluten free cereal with gluten free peanut butter and this 100% fruit strawberry jam mixed together. Within about 30-60 minutes of eating it I got 2 itchy bumps (hives?) on my right leg and I became super bloated. I also felt a little "out of it". And strangely enough the...

    I am eating some fruit (not usually with breakfast) and I'm taking a multi vitamin (which contains a lot of B12) and a fish oil supplement, both of these supplements are gluten free. I have some high quality aloe vera juice, is it true aloe vera can help heal the intestines?
  18. ericsnow
    Today for example I had scrambled eggs and organic gluten free turkey hot dogs (sliced) fried up in organic extra virgin coconut oil and I got the tired feeling after eating it. But like I said I get the tired feeling after eating anything.
  19. ericsnow
    I'm being really careful, if I'm not sure about a food I'll call the company up and ask. I'm also going casein free, is casein withdrawal similar to gluten withdrawal? One more question... When I wake up in the morning my energy levels are close to normal but within about 30 minutes of eating breakfast I get very tired. It seems as though after eating...

    Thanks! How long do you think it will last? A few weeks?
  21. ericsnow
    Anyone?
  22. ericsnow
    It's been 4 days and I've been experiencing... - Relentless hunger, literally eating 2 or 3 times as much as normal. - Bloating - Fatigued - Anxiety - Minor depression - Irritability - Brain fog I'm going to an allergy doctor soon, are the tests they give 100% accurate?
  23. ericsnow
    I specifically get hazelnuts, almonds, brazil nuts, and walnuts. They are all organic.
  24. ericsnow
    I wouldn't be surprised if it did contain gluten.
  25. ericsnow
    Yeah here's a thread where multiple people going gluten free speak of constant hunger - Anyone known what causes this hunger?
