  1. She should be tested for 25(OH)D vitamin D blood level. Most newly diagnosed with Celiac Disease are disturbingly low. Malabsorption syndrome causes poor dietary absorption of vitamin D orally and super high sunscreens block skin production. Hypervitminosis D which nearly every article written warns of, is a very rare disease. Many these days drink...
  2. When my son was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in 1976 as soon as he was weaned, his doctor insisted that we feed him only Nutramigen it was the only hyperallergenic with complete nutrition. Enfamil and Similac were not acceptable if we wanted him to get healthy. For one thing they had no choline back then. Given the lawsuits against them now, he was...
  3. Gastroparesis can be caused by deficiency of acetycholine (deficient choline intake). Gastroparesis can be caused by vitamin D deficiency vitamin B12 deficiency is linked to gastroparesis Thiamine B1 deficiency can cause autonomic nervous failure in the gastrointestinal system, which can lead to gastroparesis. Celiac Disease causes...
  4. Hello @CeeBee1807, Find out if your gastroscopy will include biopsies for Celiac Disease. Since the doctors haven't mentioned Celiac Disease to you, I have a feeling they will not. You'll get an answer like, you have irritation. We don't know what the cause is.
  5. I can usually only eat it as chopped liver, but the commercial ones all have wheat added. Wish I could, but it creeps me. Cod Liver Oil works.
  6. Witch Hazel is great for cleaning skin. I also use it to clean my ears.
  7. Whatever the doctors decide, you can not eat wheat. Chasing an official diagnosis is up to you. In addition to the damage the wheat does, it also causes malabsorption syndrome, so even if you eat the same as the next guy your small intestine does not absorb it so you are also dealing with malnutrition. The solution is avoid wheat, rye and replete your...
  8. Hi @V.Beth Are you taking any vitamins?
  9. It is not your ignorance but your doctors ignorance that is concerning, That’s why the moral of the story at this time is to evaluate how you feel when you eat 100% gluten-free for a couple of months. Until we have highly sensitive tests we can rely on to accurately diagnose gluten sensitivity, diagnosing will involve “building a case” by pulling toget...
  10. For most adults to not have lactose intolerance one needs to repopulate their gut with lactobacillus from salt fermented pickles, sauerkraut, olives. Other probiotics can also help like bifidobacteria. Are you getting enough choline from eggs, meat? It is impotant for fat digestion. It can cause false diagnosis of gall bladder disease.
  11. There is a food list for choline in this fact sheet from NIH Choline Fact Sheet for Health Professionals the safe range for a 6 year old girl is 250 mg to 1000 mg. Beef, ground, 93% lean meat, broiled, 3 ounces is 72 mg. Egg, hard boiled, 1 large is 147 mg. Lecithin contains about 3–4% choline by weight. That's not considering t...
  12. Call and verify you are getting an Endoscopy with Celiac Biopsies. A simple gastroscopy won't clarify anything regarding Celiac Disease. With the family history you have it is virtually a slam dunk. When testing is all done, and they have no answers it will be time to trial Gluten Free diet for at least a few months. Many are negative biopsy...
  13. This is often deficiency of choline, primary source is eggs, liver, beef. Choline deficiency results in hepatic steatosis.
  14. Since you are gluten sensitive, and your daughter has positive tests and the doctors don't have any ideas that help, the next step is a Gluten free diet. It does'nt really matter Celiac or NCGS. The only treatment is avoid gluten. Don't make her suffer because of medical beauracracy. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies are common in Celiac Disease. This...
  15. Red Bull (not sugar free) for energy during the day. Food at home. Salads are hard to contaminate.
