Hi Everyone ?

I was wondering which probiotic brand people take? My friend who has Celiacs recommended Solgar & Alforex probiotics. 

Has anybody else found probiotics helped them?

Thank you :)

Yogurt

I agree.  I did yogurt everyday- a couple of times a day .  Probiotics didn’t seem to agree with my gut.  Maybe I never found the right mix

Not sure if they are necessary for a celiac.  Think about it.  Celiacs have intestinal damage when they consume gluten.   Many celiacs have SIBO (small intestinal bacterial growth).  Bacteria belongs in the large colon and not in the small intestine.  When intestinal villi are damaged,  transit time is often delayed.  Those probiotics might end up populating the small intestine instead.  

I prefer yogurt and other fermented natural foods too.  Takes longer, but it has been working for thousands of years instead of the last 25 years.  I consume yogurt every single day!  It is one of my “comfort foods”.  Of course, I consume plain yogurt and NOT the fruity, sugary, flavors.

      Daughter waiting for appointment

      By jjiillee · Posted

      My daughter,17 was getting stomach pains off and on for months. Went to pediatrician, bloodwork came back showing TTG-IGA 5.3 weak positive. Told to follow up with gastroenterology, continue to eat gluten. Can’t get appoint until end of Jan (we are on waitlist also), called back because she was still getting pains and nurse said to let her try to go gluten free for a few weeks and see if she feels better. She does feel better. My question is should I let her stay gluten free until the end of January and see what the Gastro says? I know she will have to be eating gluten before she has any further testing, but that is likely months away at this point.

      Anybody else have a similar experience...theories welcome as its something which i dont really understand.....

      By Pat Denman · Posted

      Many years ago, there was a doctor who recommended never eating the same food within 5 days. Also recommended greens only 2X per week. Can't remember his name. Dx Celiac at age 87 by self as where I live in the northwest of Idaho, there is no medical insurance which covers Celiac disease or even will pay for tests!

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      By StaciField · Posted

      I am so scared of going to my doctor because she didn’t give me any information on my condition just saying remove gluten. I have a number of things that relate to coeliac disease but the doctor never picked up on it years ago when I was questioning my health.

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease about 8 months ago. I have been on a gluten free diet since then but I am still struggling with symptoms.  My bones hurt all over my body, my hips and elbows especially. My arms are tingling a lot and feeling numb.
