    I don't know if gluten-free has helped also, but cutting out milk and refined foods and all cane sugar products worked for me. I did this last May and have only had trivial bits of hey fever since. I have some dairy now but will cut it out again if needed when the change of season hits.

    Hi! My baby is about to turn 1, tomorrow we have his appointment. He has had gluten for a month (I am celiac). He has had no visible signs of celiac and enjoying oats and puffed wheat often. For baby one I wanted the genetics test but was told he should be on gluten for a month then get tested for a reaction of the gluten (I can't remember the test names...

    Often when Celiacs go gluten free their body finally starts taking the nutrients in and the calories, well not spending so much time on the toilet! So you need to be careful of your calorie intake, that's all and you will be fine

    No Doctor hasn't replied yet to my email, I researched it on the vitamin D council website Open Original Shared Link They said (as did my lactation consultant) D3 is better, I can't remember why. I also know its absorbed better with fish oil, so I take them together plus trying to eat wild salmon often amongst other things. I give my young children D...

    I have cholesterol issues (slightly high, good and bad) and that's barely touching animal products, just genetics (from the non celiac side also) something I try and control by a very strict diet so I can breastfeed. Anyone recommend a vitamin D3 drops? Thanks for all the posts!

    Thanks everyone. I was taking prenatals, fish oil and getting midday sun for 20 minutes when I was below 20, then got up to 29 on prescription vit D, but the doctors don't seem as worries about my levels as I am, but I know breastfeeding especially I really need to get them up (and hope some of my joint pain disappears). Anyway I have been researching also...

    Hi! I've been diagnosed for a long time and its well controlled. The last 3.5 years I've been pregnant and/or breastfeeding, 2 c-sections and my body is struggling a little. I'm having trouble with vitamin D levels, my new doctor (like my old doctor) just keep telling me to take 1000iu of vitamin D, but I already do plus good food, however my numbers are...

    Did you have any luck finding a doctor? I'm at baldwin park and want to find a doctor who knows more.

    I am not sure about that test, but you seem worried about bacterial issues. What really worked for me was taking probiotics and getting on a refined food free diet for a month. Especially no can sugar and low fruits/other sugar.

    Hi! I have just joined this forum and it looks great! I have been diagnosed with Celiac for many years and been fairly gluten free since I was a kid. Last Sept I had baby 2 (mid 30s) and as I did with baby 1 struggled with knee pain post partum. I saw my doctor and requested a vitamin D blood test and was low, I went on prescription vitamin Ds and it...

    Going refined food free has really helped me! Originally I was not eating natural sugars also, but now I've been able to introduce fruit etc back into my diet. Originally I was only eating: vegetables, beans, nuts, eggs, wholegrains (no breads or yeasted things), (eg corn tortillas, making my own wholegrain muffins or pancakes), fresh meats, one serve...

    Congratulations on your new baby and breastfeeding. I thankfully have had enough milk and haven't needed to supplement (apart from both kids needed formula on day 1 in the hospital). Do remember ANY breastmilk helps and YOU are giving your baby 100% of what you can, don't feel you are letting your baby down. A few things I have learned along the way: Peppermint...
