    Open Original Shared Link 41% of patients (254 of 624) in the XIFAXAN 550 mg group, 31% of TARGET 1 placebo group (98 of 314) and 32% of TARGET 2 placebo group (103 of 320) experienced adequate relief of IBS signs and symptoms. Composite endpoint was defined as ≥30% decrease from baseline in abdominal pain I don't see much d...

    So what's the need? Copper is definately one of the minerals affected by Celiac Disease. Copper Deficiency in Celiac Disease Copper deficiency is an uncommonly reported complication of celiac disease that has not received much attention in recent years. In addition choline is an essential nutritent that is largely ignored and can cause liver...

    Traditionally the estimate is 10% of first person relatives of a diagnosed Celiac has Celiac Disease. A recent study (Mayo or Cleveland Clinic I think) raised that to 44%. Half the population tests positive for Celiac genes, but only 5% of them are diagnosed as having Celiac Disease. Regardless, you should have your child tested now before there are overt...

    Stay out of pain. What are the benefits to you of eating gluten? Your test could be a false negative but the good result is that you are doing better on gluten free.

    Had a Dexxa scan last year. Osteopenia. But that could be from the years of untreated Celiac. Or my diet intake deficiencies. Or age. Her concern that it was driving up my BP was assuaged when my BP in office was 106/56 once. I still have to sign a note that I decline bp meds and statins but my homocysteine is normal (my obsession about choline) and that...

    5mg if I'm inactive. Been gardening an hour each morning so had to increase to 10. If I take too much for more than a few days I get bruises on my forearm that is unique to predinsone. So I use that as an indication to reduce. The doctor gave me a month worth of Tramodol to use while weaning off but after a week I gave it back. All kinds of hormones from...

    Tongue in cheek about NCGS. I was amazed to see someone with his credentials still believing that wheat is essential.

    I've been on 10 years now. They push newer drugs for the profit, not the results. Those same doctors have no problem with insulin, thyroxine, methyltrexate.

    Choline deficiency increases lymphocyte apoptosis and DNA damage in humans Choline deficiency increases lymphocyte apoptosis and DNA damage in humans A choline-deficient diet increased DNA damage in humans. Subjects in whom these diets induced liver or muscle dys-function also had higher rates of apoptosis in their peripheral lymphocytes than did subjects...

    Keep the faith. The western diet is inherently not a nutritious one. 7 Nutrient Deficiencies That Are Incredibly Common. The article ignores choline.

Subjects in whom these diets induced liver or muscle dys-function...

    No wonder there is such confusion! "Thus, the short answer is that in the case of NCGS a GFD is neither medically needed nor detrimental. However, NCGS has many similar aspects to irritable bowel syndrome," https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4031484/ Because there is no autoimmune villi damage in NCGS are there vitamin deficiencies. Non...

    There's the "patchy" spots that @trents mentioned earlier. English translation: Celiac disease but not my job to call it. In 2004 my wife came home with a diagnosis of ovarian cancer and said if I got sick I had to move out. I started using Cold-Eeze (zinc glyconate 13.1 mg lozenges) at the slightest sign of a cold. Zinc is an antiviral...

    Sorry it seems as if we are intruding. If they say gluten free it should be. Does Gatorade contain gluten? Pepsi's long answer to a short question "There is a possibility the ingredients were exposed to/stored next to gluten-containing foods during processing." Cheerios: "Our oats are then skillfully milled into oat flour that is verified...

    Drizzling Witch Hazel in my ear helps me when my ears bother me. My understanding is a biopsy diagnosis of DH is as good as a dx of Celiac Disease. It needs special technique which a dermatologist familiar with DH would know. At least save a long trip. "DH is considered the specific cutaneous manifestation of celiac disease, and the most recent...

    Choline and Folate are needed to prevent neural tube defects. Iodine to avoid cretanism. Maternal Vitamin D can effect your baby for life.

    I start to spasm and jerk on SSRi tranquilizers, get calm on amphetemines. Go old school and see how he does on coffee. Coffee puts me to sleep. Baseball is good.

    My son was diagnosed when he was weaned. By kindergarden as predicted when he was diagnosed with Celiac, we started him on Ritalin. The results were amazing. The same kid who couldn't focus on putting on socks in the morning, 15 minutes after taking a Ritalin was being helpful. He was on Ritalin everyday through High School. He didn't like the way it made...

    Any chance of Covid? All of the symptoms I was told would improve if I stop smoking finally did when I started GFD. If its physical contact with the filter paper, try a cigarette holder.😊

    And straight to the point: "However, a study of 2,012 participants – published in the American Journal of Public Health –found no statistically relevant association between 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25 (OH)D) serum level in the range of 20 to 100 ng/mL and the incidence of kidney stones."

    I figured you'd have seen that. One study I read pointed out that in those results Calcium was also supplemented and questioned could the Calcium have been the factor. After all it is Calcium Oxalate. "There remains concern, however, that increasing vitamin D intake even by 400 IU/d increases the risk for kidney stones, especially in patients with a...

    When my wife was pregnant back in 1976 it was recommended she drink non alcoholic "black beer" for its folate. It is full of B vitamins. Unfortunately all those B vitamins are wrapped in gluten. If I might ask, do you know your vitamin D plasma? One sign of D toxicity is stones.
  25. Wheatwacked
    In patients with celiac disease, treatment with a gluten-free diet lowers stone incidence comparably to control levels probably not your best source of medical advice. Hope ours at least makes more sense. 😄 Were the bubbles supposed to jiggle them loose? Then they would still have to pass through, leaving I think a trail of pain through your ki...
