  1. Might as well. You already spent the money.
  2. Can you clone your doctor and distribute her among us? First, I think that the myriad of presentations of celiac disease is because everyone eats a slightly different combination of foods. Estimates vary but upwards of 30% of the world population have the HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 alleles yet only just over 1% are diagnosed with Celiac Disease. On the other...
  3. Gluten sensitivity and epilepsy: a systematic review: "This has led some researchers to suggest that the calcifications may represent an epiphenomenon rather than being causative. One speculated that the cause of the development of calcifications is folate deficiency." While this is a review of epilepsy and celiac disease or NCGS in the section on CEC...
  4. Hi gigib55. Welcome to the forum. Chronic vitamin and mineral deficiencies are common. Choline deficiency causing gall bladder problems. As a single egg supplies about 20–25% of your daily requirement, two large eggs provide almost half. Choline is a large part of bile which is needed to process fat. Increasing folate can compensate for choline deficiency. ...
  5. "Antigliadin antibodies (AGAs) are antibodies of the IgA and IgG classes found in the serum of celiac disease patients. These antibodies mainly target gliadin-derived peptides, which are the main proteins of gluten. AGAs are not specific for celiac disease as they are also found in patients with other gastrointestinal diseases such as gastritis, gastroenteritis...
  6. You could safely triple it. Vitamin D Is Not as Toxic as Was Once Thought: A Historical and an Up-to-Date Perspective "Vitamin D intoxication associated with hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and suppressed parathyroid hormone level is typically seen in patients who are receiving massive doses of vitamin D in the range of 50,000 to 1 million IU/d for...
  7. I know you are already taking vitamin D. Try doubling it. Twice a day would smooth the peaks, your body will after a few days recognize the increased amount and start storing the excess. Part of the adaptation allowing us to move from the equator. Target blood plasma above 70 ng/ml. Prior to the industrial revolution we spent most of our days outside, without...
  8. The backup to MTHFR issues; there seems to be lots of variations; for methylation of homocysteine, is Choline. That frees up folate for other functions. Looks like your diet may be short on potassium. The B Vitamins and Choline
  9. Do you have the actual TSH test results that you can share. Low vitamin D is a common factor among numerous autoimmune diseases. Possible Role of Vitamin D in Celiac Disease Onset How Hashimoto's Disease Is Diagnosed
  10. In your son's case, it doesn't matter he can't eat it. If he throws it up, it can't be good for him. DO EGGS HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT?
  11. I drink coffee as a sleep aide. And SSRi's make me twitchy. I was put on coffee by the pediatrition when I was 11 years old (pre Ritalin days) a cup before school and a cup at bedtime.
  12. CHOLINE - THE MOST IMPORTANT NUTRIENT OF THE BODY Lack of enough bile will give your symptoms. Could be caused by a long-term low-fat diet. Could be not enough choline in your diet. Bile is needed to absorb fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K so in addition to a choline deficiency you might be deficient in them.. Another indicator might be high homocysteine...
  13. Here's the cool thing. If you stay gluten free, replenish the vitamins and minerals that you are deficient in, and decrease the omega 6 in your diet, your fibromyalgia will magically be gone, and you won't need to convince the doctor of anything. Of course, you still need to monitor the damage already done while you heal. Let the doctor get sicker on his...
  14. I think when you poach the max temp is <212 F. Hard boiling creates high temp steam inside the shell and frying or scrambling can get temps high enough to mess with the flavor? I wondered but never looked. Could some people be dealing with cross contamination through their eggs?
  15. Add 100 grams of Red Leaf lettuce and about a cup of beans to your diet. (mix of small red, chickpeas, and pinto has interesting textures and flavors) Soak the beans overnight to remove the lectins then rinse. Simmer for an hour then rinse. Add your flavors. It will increase folate and beneficial fiber. Eat eggs for choline. Increase your intake of thiamine...
  16. I've had the same thing with eggs. I boil water and crack the eggs in. It took me 40 years to learn to cook a potato in the microwave that did not turn into a rock and in my mind's eye I can see me cleaning exploded egg. Currently doing 3 jumbo (198 g) scrambled in Irish butter, for the choline.
  17. Welcome to the forum. To me it sounds like multiple vitamin deficiencies. Doctors are taught to treat diseases but not to recognize simple nutrition deficiencies. Thyroid problems could be a lack of enough iodine. The American diet has half as much iodine as in 1970. Prescriptions of Thorazine has increased and there was a 242% increase in breast cancer...
  18. Not unlike doctors treating an alcoholic. It's lack of "self-control and all in your head". Funny how an abnormal number of alcoholics get seriously sick by the time they get their second Alcoholics Anonymous anniversary token. Good luck with you appointments.
  19. I love this line: "People who have limited food variety—including some elderly, indigent individuals who prepare their own food; people who abuse alcohol or drugs; food faddists; people with mental illness; and, occasionally, children—might not obtain sufficient vitamin C" https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminC-HealthProfessional/ Vitamin ade...
  20. Can't argue with that. Many commonly used drugs can inhibit the production of diamine oxidase (DAO). Many others can liberate stored endogenous histamine. It can also be an inherited trait. Oddly, Benadryl may be one of those that does both. Drugs that inhibit DAO and or release endogenous stored histamine The DAO enzyme is dependent on vitamin...
  21. Yes. Just like rinsing the dishes before putting in the dishwasher. It softens the plaque and kills the germs, then the brush polishes it away. Still have all my teeth at 71, except for one molar that broke when an old filling failed and I procrastinated. It was pulled and that extra space allowed lower teeth to shift. My bite improved and solved my TMJ,...

  23. When you increased milk intake you also increased your intake of omega 6 fatty acids. Omega 6 increases inflammation and clotting. That's its job. Have you tried 100% Grass fed dairy or meat? The supplements used to increase milk in dairy and to fatten beef raises omega 6 content. Fortunately that is not the case with plant based foods. The issue is not that...
