I’ve been reading some studies on use of CBd oil for celiac disease which sound supportive for using it. A friend is using 5 drops every night and day and she swears her celiac symptoms are gone.  Anyone else finding the same?

I never tried it myself.  But celiac is not cureable so not sure what the point is?   Celiac symptoms are widely varied and there are treatments for some of them.

Hi!  

The only treatment for celiac disease is a strict gluten free diet.  That said, not every celiac wants to adhere to the diet.  My PCP told me that she has three celiac patients (I do have a GI as well).  Two of them refuse to give up gluten.  She has over 2,000 patients and she knows these two celiacs well because they are always sick.  

I have allergies to so many medications — even acetaminophen and ibuprofen.  It would be nice to have something that would take the edge off pain.  If it is pharmaceutical grade, it might be useful to get you through a gluten exposure.  

I work hard to avoid gluten.  My last repeat endoscopy revealed healthy villi.  But a few gluten hits may have been the cause an additional autoimmune disorder I have developed since my celiac disease diagnosis.   When my celiac disease is activated, it sets off my other AI disorders.  Not fun.

Report back and let us know if it helps you.

I use it for anxiety and depression...I was on it when I was last exposed and it did not stop the vomiting, D, and ataxia. While it can be useful for anxiety, depression, nervous issues, and pain, it does not slow down, or stop the damage gluten does to a person with celiac. You might be numbing yourself from it but your immune system will still be destroying your insides.

it smoothes the angry gut but it will not stop damage if one consumes gluten.  celiac doesn't 'go' - but if it makes the symptoms manageable, sounds good to me.  the 'regular' kind of cannabis makes me have an appetite, therefore very useful as i am underweight.  if it's helping your friend to be comfortable, gut-wise, that's wonderful.  different things work for different celiacs.  but she must continue eating gluten free.  she can be damaging things without knowing it if she doesn't.

i am truly glad the restrictions on cannabis are loosening so the medical community can see what this herb can and cannot do.  i watched a video of a guy with parkinson's was spasming so bad he could hardly walk and within minutes of consuming cbd oil, he was moving around very noticably improved.  pretty cool.

      Essentially all of our UK forum participants who are in the process of a celiac disease diagnosis report that after their blood antibody testing is done, they have to wait many months to get the endoscopy/biopsy for confirmation. My impression is that the UK/European health care models do great at addressing routine healthcare needs but poorly at specialty healthcare needs.

      I think both systems have merits and faults, but in my opinion no citizen of any country should be denied health care, and it should be a basic human right, no matter your income.

      I want to stand up for the NHS! Yes, it has its issues, but after moving from the U.S. a few years ago, it’s been a real eye-opener to see just how much better the NHS is compared to the American healthcare system. For example, I can call my GP in the morning and often get an appointment that same day. Healthcare is provided to all UK residents, free at the point of use, no matter your income or job status. That’s a massive relief. In the U.S., people regularly go bankrupt because of medical bills—it’s one of the leading causes of financial ruin. Here, that just doesn’t happen. Plus, the UK consistently reports lower infant mortality rates and higher life expectancy compared to the U.S. No...

      I developed a heart arrhythmia and on several occasions had to wear a 24 hour Holter monitor. Among other things, I had premature atrial complexes (PACs) and occasional AFib. I was very fit at the time, running and cycling. This completely disappeared following my diagnosis and following a strict gluten free diet. I haven't had a single episode since, in 4 years.

      Testing for celiac disease, whether blood antibody testing or biopsy procedure, will likely be invalidated when the gluten consumption has been discontinued ahead of the testing or the procedure for more than a couple of weeks or so. For the person with celiac disease, the consumption of gluten results in the production of specific antibodies that can be detected in the blood because the immune system is attacking the gluten as it comes in contact with the small bowel lining. The blood testing is designed to detect these antibodies. Over time, the inflammation wears down the villi that line the small bowel. The biopsy is designed to spot this damage to the lining. When gluten...
