    Sarah C, I don't know if this will help you are not but I would research it. I dr. googled it (link below) but I knew where to look. Niacinamide has great memory boosting ability at least in mice studies. See this link from from the life enhancement website. http://www.life-enhancement.com/magazine/article/2049-nicotinamide-restores...

    jm34, the other post was getting too long. so here a list of nutrients that helped my depression and anxiety issues. Vitamin D Zinc Magnesium Citrate Niacinamide Iodine These all helped me you may have to take them in higher doses than the RDA if you are low in them to catch back up but only for a cycle say 3 to 6 months...

    jm34, if you take vitamin d you also need to look into vitamin k they are often sold together and for good reason. They work together to balance each other. Vitamin K us actually used to reverse artery calcification in Japan. see this link that talks about this http://blog.healthybynaturehwc.com/tag/vitamin-k/ This is an archive issue...

    jmg, your right thanks for correcting me on that. Dr. Mark Hyman called him a "medicial clinician" but he is not a doctor as best I could tell after visiting his site again. I am sorry for the error. I think it was just a pavlovian response on my part. Every doctor's office (and/or hospital) I have been to only the doctor's where smoks/ white...

    jm34, Sorry you are still suffering. Taking either Niacinamide or Slow - Niaicn (IHN) should not make you flush. You would have to take Niacin at extremely high dosages (Usually only obtained by prescription) to overdose on Niacin. Like greater than 3 gram day. Putting some on cornflakes only once would not do it. It is water soluble vitamin...

    Weekend Warrior, There are other threads on celiac.com that talks about the issue of people having reactions to Corn. It can happen thought the awareness of this fact is generally poor. Search for the thread "what does borderline test mean" If you can't read the whole thread then go down and read the post by awol cast iron stomach linked...

    Why and How Pellagra is (often) Confused with Celiac Disease and/or Digestive Problems ; The Science of Pellagra a Hidden Epidemic in the 21st Century presenting/revealing as Celiac Disease. When I was gluten intolerant following a Gluten Free diet religiously and newly diagnosed as a Celiac I began studying to see if there was a “cure” for this dis...

    Kurasz, GFinDC is right it could be anything. If you think it heavy metal poisoning they typically include a neurologic condition like tingling in the fingers causing you to be diagnosed as MS for example or hearing or vision problems etc. See the mercymom who was poisoned after having silver fillings put in her dental work which are 50% mercury...

    Jm34, This is to your OP. It sounds like you have low stomach acid to me. We become low in a host of vitamin/minerals because your/our stomach acid is not strong enough to extract our nutrients. see this thread where I talk about why strong stomach acid is important. As to your Potassium problem/deficiency. This too can be explained...

    cristina, Eat to your meter is great advice from cyclinglady. I have controlled my prediabetes for 5 years that way. It has not been over 6.5 A1c in over 5 years and most times it is in the low 6's or or even under (5.9 is considered normal). Before then it was over 8.5 at one point and the doctor's just wanted to give me more medicine. Now...

    More information about "A Differential Diagnosis: How Pellagra Can be Confused with Celiac Disease"
    Celiac.com 01/17/2017 - A diagnosis of pellagra will likely have many other disease presentations, not limited to acne, rosacea (dermatitis) skin rashes, depression, anxiety, dementia, etc., as well. Seventy-five or more years ago the...

    Prologue I never know what to call a post. What Else Could it Be; Co-Morbidity in Celiac disease and what else could be causing your Celiac like symptoms or I had Celiac Disease and developed Pellagra. This is my story yours may be similar. I have tried to write as much as I could of this beforehand to summarize some of my experience and research since I...

    GFinDC, I agree sites that don't sell something are better are at least they should be but as kareng points out . . . they can be useful resources for plain english explanation to laymen. I do find most doctor's sites that recommend vitamins/minerals also sell them. You can take the wrong kind/form (non-bio-available) like Magnesium Oxide and get...

    gigdeb, It is amazing how many things line up when you first discover you have developed Celiac disease after all these years. Some of the same things associated with Celiac disease are also associated with having low stomach/poor gastric function. https://www.drmyattswellnessclub.com/GastricAcidFunction.htm And Graves disease is an associated...

    kareng, Your are probably right. But the same could be said about Celiac disease 15 or 20 years ago. Rare enough to not be diagnosed nearly as common as it is is today. Thanks to education doctor's now know to look for it today. Sadly though often patients often still have to educate our physician's Celiac is a lot more common than it is diagnosed...

    cycylinglady, I don't know where that leaves me. There is no good medical answer. My chart says I am a celiac but my GI symptom's seem to be in remission. Maybe I am now a silent celiac and damage is being done that I don't see or is now occurring in other organs that I am not aware of. I might be in a "honeymoon" period and it will soon...

    emma6, Yes thank you. Ooooooooooooooooooooops! of course I did not know her license had been suspended. I will be sure not to quote her again. It seems the more I try the worse it gets. Would you take a link from Pubmed that note a similar link of the possible connection betwen "Niacin metabolism and Parkinson's disease." https:...

    ravenwoodglass, I am not sure exactly what you mean by the "psychological aspects" of a Celiac. I mean it to mean any of many related "dementia's" including depression, anxiety, MS, ALS, Cerebral Palsy or ataxia's linked or suspected to be linked to gluten consumption or a Celiac diagnosis. 40% of Celiac's go on to develop Depression. I...

    squirmingitch, I owe you an apology. I never meant to misrepresent what you said. When I read "I thought the first sign of a glutening with me would be a flare of the rash but it wasn't. Mine begins with the neurological aspects, then GI symptoms" . . . I miss understood what you were saying. I should of noted only my depression and excessive...

    Cyclinglady, I was serology confirmed as a Celiac. It is true I was not "biospy proven" but there are others on this site like Gemini and I think Ironictruth who were only blood test confirmed but we are no less Celiac's. Than those who have had a biopsy proven diagnosis I believe. we had a gluten antibody response while consuming gluten and our...

    squirmingitch, I usually mention the Niacinamide form of the Vitamin because it avoids the flushing people find annoying about the commonly available Niacin form used for cholesterol management. Knitty Kitty used the Niacin form to help her itching. You ran review how she took in the above thread or research the Niacin protocol to relieve itching...

    squirmingitch, It may have not been the doxycycline. You didn't mention any more about your Niacinamide from your first post. Niacin on this board has been used to treat the itching effect of dh the celiac rash. You note despite usingy doxy you still continue to have flares but when you started the Niacinamide and doxy you noticed improvement...

    Mrs. Doyle,

    I saw you wrote about Niacin.  Did you ever get better taking Niacin.

    Have you ever researched much about Niacinamide.  The Amide version of Niacin.  It is the naturally flushless version of the Vitamin.

    See the website in my profile if you want to research more about Niacinamide.

    It really helped me.

    Posterboy,

    seeking2012, ponyridepele is right. Low stomach acid contributes to GERD and too many CARBS if Dr. Chris Kreser is correct. Timeline is important with any diagnosis. IF you stomach acid was HIGH as you often hear (everywhere) you hear an acid for acid reducer’s then eating food (carbs, greasy things) wouldn’t bother you. The acid would cut...

    To All those who have had other disease diagnosis's before your Celiac Diagnsosis, Someone more experienced on this board might set up a poll to see how many of the tags in the thread apply to those who have received either a celiac disease or NCGS diagnosis for those who read this board. See this new research as posted on Celiac.com today https...
