    As of right now....we dont have any evidence of it. If I research the enzymes and find that BY FAR these enzymes do seem to be helping people....I'm gonna pay attention to that. When I ask my doctors what their experience is with enzymes and they tell me that they are extremely helpful in healing the gut as well as reducing food reactions....I'm...
  2. Rachel--24
    U.Z....these are all very good points.
  3. Rachel--24
    This has already been posted and discussed...more than once. YES....they DO state a cause for gluten intolerance...an inability to digest gluten IS a cause for gluten intolerance. This has already been hashed over... You can go back several pages and we had this exact same discussion...you asked the same question....and I answered it. Some...

    Yes...and this is why its not a treatment for Celiac Disease. This is also why it can be VERY helpful to someone who is NOT having an autoimmune response (Celiac). If it digests the protein enough to allow it to pass through WITHOUT causing inflammation...this can prevent a person from developing leaky gut and the many consequences that come along with...

    Tom, Nothing that you posted is "new" info....noone here has been saying that GlutenEase is a cure for Celiac Disease. Enzymedica does not claim that GlutenEase is a treatment for Celiac Disease. NOONE is making this claim.....and nobody here is saying that Celiac's can eat gluten and not suffer damage if they take GlutenEase. How many times has that...

    I'm sorry but in response to Sarah's posts....the "misled" would be those who HAVE Celiac ...who read Enzymedica's info....see the words "flattened villi" and assume that these enzymes will "cure" their Celiac. If a person is undiagnosed why would they be "misled" by the wording on the website? Sarah's concern was that a person HAVING Celiac would...
  7. Rachel--24
    Since GlutenEase is not a treatment for Celiac...I imagine that the "misled" Celiac would still be sick if they continued to eat gluten. If they choose to ignore their symptoms and continue to poison themselves with gluten...then yes....they may end up with cancer. Same thing goes for the Celiac who chooses to cheat once a month. Same thing goes for...

    Carla, Thanks for posting that link. I was gonna ask you about the Lightworks today. I was skipping over those posts but now that they're in a seperate thread its easier for me to follow. I'm thinking of trying it. April, I have a cyst behind one of my ears. I remember when it showed up and it was around the same time that I first had symptoms...

    In my 3 years posting here (as well as other boards) I have yet to see someone post that they were harmed by GlutenEase. Who has been hurt? Do you personally know someone who has misinterpreted Enzymedica's info. and been harmed as a result? If not....then you are making an assumption.
  10. Rachel--24
    For as long as I've been posting on this board its been acknowledged that there are some genes that are not yet identified. Both GI Dr.'s I saw acknowledged that there are "missing" genes...and that we dont know all genes involved at this time. We know that there is a very small percentage of Celiac's who do not carry either DQ2 or DQ8. However....somewhere...
  11. Rachel--24
    Is there any reason that you dont want to be tested? Some people have Celiac Disease....and some people are intolerant to gluten due to other health issues or an inability to properly digest it. If you start the diet without having any testing done you may find yourself confused as to what the problem is later on (if symptoms dont resolve). I would...
  12. Rachel--24
    Me....only by default. I dont know what issues you have for sure...except for the arsenic. I think the BEST and SAFEST option right now are the diets. Either one...the only way to know what diet works is to try it out. I think taking the enzymes would be helpful. I'm not saying to start adding in some of the most problematic foods (like...
  13. Rachel--24
    Oh...trust me...I NEVER run out of stuff to Google.
  14. Rachel--24
    The average Celiac who reads that ad would also see the statement that the enzymes are not effective as a treatment for Celiac Disease. They will say "Hey...thats what I have!!"...and they will know that this is NOT for them. I would also like to point out that NON-Celiac's are susceptible to many of the same health risks as a result of poor digestion...
  15. Rachel--24
    Thanks....thats what I figured as soon as I saw the title of the thread. I emailed the info to you regarding this new antioxidant product. It sounds good to me....maybe something that can really help me. I like the fact that its not a chelator....not a precurser for glutathione.....not glutathione itself...but something that is actually raising glutathione...
  16. Rachel--24
    You are making an assumption when you say that GlutenEase is "aimed" at Celiac's. Personally, I do not agree with your assumption. The marketing may be an issue for YOU...but for alot of people its not an issue at all. They understand what it means. I understand what it means and never ONCE did I think that this was something that a Celiac could take...
  17. Rachel--24
    This is not happening because of the company's "irresponsible" marketing. I would bet that this indiviadual has never even been to that website...nor have they ever picked up one of the bottles and tried these enzymes. This post comes from a misinformed person who is giving advice about something that he doesnt have alot of knowledge about. It happens...
  18. Rachel--24
    Scott sent me some info about a new product. I only had time for a quick glance. It looks good....but not available yet. It may be on the market within 3 months. He said he just saw Dr. K. and he (klinghardt) is really excited about it. Its for detoxification....something for heavy metals but not a chelator. It allows for the body to start producing enough...
  19. Rachel--24
    Apparantly alot has been posted the past couple days. I'm totally behind! I just read through "We're back from Germany"...thats all I had time for. I attempted to go to LymeNET Europe with the link that was provided. I saw who was posting over there....got scared...didnt read anything over there yet...not sure if I want to. Those are some of...

    YAY!! Good job T (and Andrea )!!
  21. Rachel--24
    This is the main purpose of the SCD... So when a Celiac doesnt really have a problem with dysbiosis they do just fine with the diet. The people who dont heal very well and continue to have problems with additional foods tend to have other issues....whether its parasites, bacteria, yeast or something else. They are just not in balance and they continue...
  22. Rachel--24
    I agree with that but I think that the people with carb problems are more likely to have dysbiosis. They have an imbalance in the gut microbes which leads to fermentation. I think the main purpose of the SCD is to try to restore balance in the gut by restricting the foods which feed the bad bacteria/yeast.
  23. Rachel--24
    Well I guess yours were ALOT smarter than mine. I still cant think of one helpful thing they said. I'm truely stumped this time! I could totally provide a super long list of UNhelpful things they told me. Lots of those things are coming to mind....there was no shortage of stupidness thats for sure.
  24. Rachel--24
    I've never read anything about potatos being high in mold (well anything can get moldy if its not fresh). They are also not high in sulfur or sulfites. Sulfites are a chemical preservative......they are only a problem with preserved potoatoes (to keep them white) which is why I asked what type of potato you ate. Fresh potatoes do not contain sulfites...
  25. Rachel--24
    I wouldnt call this their CYA statement. You will find that same exact statement on every supplement that you buy. Its required. I also still dont believe that Enzymedica is marketing their product to Celiac's. This represents 1% of the population! They are going to do just fine selling this product to the non-celiac gluten intolerant's alone. I...
