    Wheatwacked, I agree with you it is well documented...just not well accepted or understood. It (Folic Acid) is added to gluten containing breads ...enriched flours ...why does it need to be enriched to be good enough for human consumption??? One might wonder? My point about Magnesium ...is it complimentary to your Lithium regimen ...as long...

    Wheatwacked, Try you some Magnesium Glycinate it works well for depression. Here is a Livestrong article on it and why Magnesium has less side effects than Lithium for depression. https://www.livestrong.com/article/386198-magnesium-as-treatment-for-bipolar-disorder/ Here is the original research abstract about it entitled "Rapid recovery...

    Liv, I found out the same thing about Zinc and my Anxiety. Here is the research link between Anxiety and Zinc entitled "Decreased Zinc and Increased Copper in Individuals with Anxiety" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3738454/ Try using Zinc Lozenges until they become metallic in your mouth ...It is a sign your body is telling...

    Ennis_Tx, Scott, and Cyclinglady et al, Here is a couple of good links on Prostaglandins ....both inflammatory and anti-inflammatory. This is one is how Prostglandins work in the body and is more technical entitled "prostaglandins and inflammation" covering both the good and bad kind(s) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3081099/ ...

    Deto, Try some bromelain found in Pinneaples...I believe it will help your digestion. It works the same way as turmeric by regulation of Prostaglandins in the body thus controlling inflammation. Here is a wisegeek article on it (foods that contain) anti-inflammatory Prostaglandins. ..including Bromelain from Pineapples. https://www.wisegeek...

    edgymama and notme, I couldn't get it to quote properly so I have quoted it below. "finally, she got 'thrush' - that started in her intestines and worked it's way up her esophagus into her mouth." I meant to post this earlier but I got busy with other things and my first reply was getting a little too long. Try taking some Lysine (an...

    Wheatwacked, Folic Acid can be a problem for some...and why it is hard to generalize.... Taking BetaineHCL can help us absorb our Folic Acid better. We get high homocysteine levels when we have a MTFHR gene defect issue. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6877313 Here is a nice thread on Folic Acid issues and the MTFHR gene defect...

    Wheatwacked, I have been busy with other things but I found supplementation helped me too! It only made sense to me to supplement with my missing nutrients. I wrote a posterboy blog post about my experience ...maybe it will help you. I called it essentially see link below "How to Win a Two Front War" with supplementation ...if you are...

    HealthySquirrel, I am so sorry to hear you are not doing/feeling well. I had ran across some research a few years ago that might help you. Manganese levels are important in Seizure patients. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(04)15558-X/fulltext Also see this research on the Kynurenine Pathway in Tryptophan...

    Edgymama and Cyclinglady, I am not sure how to say this....we tend to want diseases to stay in their lane(s)/(silos). See this recent article on Celiac.com that explains how eating gluten free can reduce Schizophrenia Symptoms in Some Patients...typically thought of as different disease(s) and they may be or they may be only the same disease with...

    Edgymama, Don't do anything different before your Endoscopy so you can have a baseline. I found this approx. 5 year old research recently about IBS that might help you entitled "Tryptophan: ‘essential’ for the pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome?" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4266036/ It takes 15 or 20 years for...

    itsme42, If it is truly yellow and not just clay colored (or earth colored which is normal) you might have a problem. Here is a couple of charts that might help you. https://www.google.com/search?q=stool+color+chart+pictures+for+adults&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&fir=8m2odvTyvn8RlM%3A%2C8Dldcwe5EPe7BM%2C_&vet=1&usg=AI...

    To All, This is good research! I had recently ran across the Kynurenine (KYN) pathway in my own research. It is now been shown as the pathogenic cause of IBS. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4266036/ And even earlier than that it was linked to Celiac disease Circa 2007. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC...

    justwantcure, I don't know if this will help you are not ...but it is worth a shot. There is a genetic condition than cause you to smell like rotting fish. https://www.medicinenet.com/fish_odor_syndrome_trimethylaminuria/article.htm#how_do_people_inherit_fish_odor_syndrome_trimethylaminuria You said B.O. but are you sure it's not your...

    Ennis_Tx, If you want to try and bird dog it yourself and don't have enough insurance to go see a doctor at the moment. Here is the AAFP site article about this topic of a Fever of an Unknown Origin (FUO) https://www.aafp.org/afp/2003/1201/p2223.html Again I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advise. Posterboy,

    Ennist_Tx, I am not saying this is what it is ...but it bears checking into. Persistent, intermittent fever could be reactivated EBV. ... it also known as CAEBV. Here is some research about it. https://www.wellnessresources.com/news/new-findings-with-epstein-barr-virus-the-sleeping-giant https://www.doctoroz.com/article/secret-life...

    FruitE, The hardest part about taking any vitamin/mineral is finding the right form/frequency to take it in ... while taking magnesium oxide can help the big "C" it is not well absorbed by the body. see this good thread on magnesium. taking Niacin has had similar issues. ..it flushes people in higher doses and why most won't take it. .. find...

    wheatwacked, I heard it was due to the pasteurization (heat) ...one's stored in chilled refrigerators should have more "live bacteria" by the natural process of fermentation...pasteurization kills off the benefit of fermented foods. I don't 'know of that is right or not?????but that is what I understood. concerning the prebotic/probiotic benefits...

    Defokus, If it is just Lipase and not other pancreas enzymes too then going gluten free should help your enzymes go down.... I had elevated liver enzymes that went down after a year. 40 percent of celiac's have elevated enzymes(usually liver enzymes) at time of diagnosis but only 25 percent of celiac's have elevated pancreas enzymes. Here...

    Awol Cast Iron Stomach. That is good research. Here is another thread and/or other research that might help you. https://insights.ovid.com/crossref/00000381-201603000-00016?isFromRelatedArticle=Y https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4266036/ It is a rainy day here, ...so I had time to come in out of the rain and caught up...

    healthysquirrel, Ennistx is right most protein bars have a "FODMAP" issue. Their a "No COW" bar that is dairy, gluten and soy free ....but it has a FODMAP in it . Try some easy available snack foods like Sun or Pumpkin Seeds . . .and why it/they is/are not particularly healthy pork rinds meets most of your check list. ...at least in the US...

    FruitEnthusiast, I am getting ready to go to a conference ...so I will be out of pocket for the next week or so...so don't be offended if I don't right back too you....I find I can't keep up these days...busy good is a good thing....but it leaves less time for forum things. But I wanted to give you some links that might help you....the reaction...

    cyclinglady, as you may have noticed I have been on the forum less lately...I have been 4-F'ed lately. http://directionsindentistry.net/4f-unfit-for-service-because-of-teeth/ I have had to spend more time doing farm work, more time with family and friends in the IRL, more time on faith issues and less time on the forum....spring is a tough...

    SCC, I would agree with you... that is plenty long enough to make a difference unless you are taking a PPI then it can it make you low in Magnesium . . .which is often one of the many other culprits for RA. Here is the usual suspects...I already mentioned Selenium and Vitamin K. You Vitamin D levels should be checked.... I was low when I was...

    Crispy Chick, I also wanted to say take some Magnesium Glycinate for your chronic fatigue. Here is how Magnesium can help fatigue issues. http://simmaronresearch.com/2015/08/epstein-barr-virus-the-magnesium-connection/ It can also be from low thiamine levels aka Beri Beri ...so take you a B-complex twice a day. Here the research...
