A Couple Questions

I would really look into threelac. It was developed in Japan and has been used there for 10 years. It does not require the strict diet. I did that diet last year and wasted away down to 116 lbs at 5'9". I stopped getting my periods and basically felt like crap. I am going to be starting threelac soon. You just need to not eat refined sugars and carbs. I don't do that anyway!!

I would strongly consider trying threelac if what I'm doing now doesn't work, but I think the SF722 is working... I was told to expect detox symptoms and I certainly have been feeling them for the past 2 weeks...

celiac disease causes us to leave iron in the gut, which encourages fungal growth. The more likely problem is a diet failure, Stuporman have you been keeping to the diet absolutely? Or has it been there since before you were diagnosed?

I haven't cheated (on the gluten) intentionally since I went gluten-free in January... the candida's likely been present for a while... I had a candida test done the same time I did my enterolab test in February, and the candida came back positive.. I just didn't start treating it until a couple weeks ago after doing some other things first (eliminating gluten, dairy, etc... taking some supplements to help heal my gut, etc.)

Sooooo, do you think we can ease our way into the candida diet. <_< Over say 2 - 3 months.

Let's say we drop sugars and processed grains. Minimize whole grains. But, not all carbs. That's too hard on our bodies.

Gradually add some form of probiotic. Yogurt, Kefir, supplements.

Take some milder anti fungals sparingly. Pau D'arco tea, garlic, etc.

And then once we have gotten that down, completely drop the carbs while coming in for the kill with a strong anti fungal and probiotic ? <_<

That was my plan anyway :ph34r:

This whole gluten free diet was hard on my body. I reeeally don't want to go through that again. :blink:

I'm not an expert by any means, but I think that your plan is good... my nutritionist said that one of the reasons she didn't start the antifungal a few months ago was to let my body heal and restore itself by cutting out offending allergens and taking probioticts/supplements first... supposedly, what I'm feeling now, which is bad enough in itself, would have been even worse if I took the antifungal a few months ago..

I would recommend seeing a nutritionist (if you're not already) to guide you with how to treat the candida...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Manaan2 · Posted

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Potato Intolerance

      By Jordan23 · Posted

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Doris Barnes · Posted

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
