I've been told today by a Rx rep that my water filter may contain gluten by-products in them as she found her's did.  Has anyone else had an issue with their's.

I've never heard of this before, may I ask who told you this, and where in the filter might there be gluten?

I heard this recently, too, but have gotten conflicting answers.

I'd ask that person more specifics, brand, etc. and call the company that makes them.

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      Using a pressure cooker will break down Lectins. Long cooking times as in using a crock pot will also reduce Lectin content. However, having tried both, going lectin free for a few weeks is like a vacation for my digestive system. I do hope you give the AIP diet a try. I understand that changing ones diet takes a lot of mental readjustment...

      Refractory or super sensitive?

      Depending on which source you research sprouting or fermentation can reduce lectins. I sprout rice, buckwheat and quinoa. However, I admit that gas and intestinal inflammation still plague me after 5 1/2 mo gluten-free. I have been resisting but I may try the aip diet at some point.

      How to choose a Naturopath for 6yr old

      Hi @jadeceoliacuk I am a UK based coeliac and I have used a private nutritionist a few times. She is very highly qualified and having just googled her details, she is listed on this website (see link). For that reason, I think you could trust the listings here as I am quite sure she would not want to associate with this website unless it was a...

      How to choose a Naturopath for 6yr old

      thank you knitty kitty. I will give those articles a read. Yes he is deficient in Iron and Vit D, that is all they tested for. Do you have any tips for finding a pediatric nutritionalist? He has an NHS dietician who has been helpful sending me generalised info on increasing Iron and cutting out dairy but they won't see him now for another year and I...

      Gluten Free ADHD medications

      Yes, Lisinopril gave me an inguinal hernia from the persistant cough. Amlodipine doubled urine output and dry eyes so I could not wear contacts, another had me walking bent over like a ninety year old and one knocked out control of my quadracepts so knees would give out. None lowered my blood pressure. Average BP 132/67 for Oct 21 - 26. Lowest was 10...
