i heard this from a friend that has a grown child with celiac and she swears by it but all i found info about is that alcohol is bad. i don't drink at all but i sure would if that was a true statement. So i asked my "not so bright" nutritionist and he said he thinks it might be true but he needs to do some more research on it.

It doesn't seem to help me; in fact my liver enzymes were high when diagnosed so my GI told me I should limit alcohol until the Celiac is under control. I certainly don't think it is worth starting just for this. I have more stomach discomfort when I do drink, but that could be just me.

Everything we eat or drink is a poision to some extent or other. Enough water will kill you in excess.

I'm sure the antioxidants found in wine can be found elsewhere too (green teas?) but if you are just not drinking because you think its "bad" then a glass of wine with a meal isn't going to hurt either.

I just know from experience that ANY alcohol sets me off now...... Long gone are my big, bad party days!

      Thanks sending me additional links including how to test for thiamine deficiency. With regards to your first link, I wasn't diagnosed with giardiasis and I didn't take antibiotic for it. I try to generally stay away from antibiotic unless absolutely necessary as it might affect gut health. For treating phimosis, the doctor didn't give me antibiotics. I need to have a circumcision surgery which I haven't got around to schedule it.

      I'm not vegan, just vegetarian. I consume dairy but not egg. So I have started including some Vitamin D fortified milk as well as a multivitamin with 2000 IU daily. For Vitamin B12, like you said it's very difficult to get it from just vegetarian sources and have started consuming Vitamin B Complex daily. My PCP was worried when my Vitamin D result came out as It was 3.7 ng/ml last year. He said that being low for a lengthy time could have done some damage to the body over the years. Now, though Vitamin D level has improved after the supplements, I'm not sure if the neurological damage has already been done. I'll continue including the supplements and see if my symptoms improve. I'll also get tested for celiac to see if I need to be in gluten-free diet.

      The positive DQ2 result is important since it suggests a genetic predisposition to celiac, but the bloodwork not showing clear signs is confusing. The inflammation in her stomach could still be related, and it’s worth pushing for more tests, like a biopsy or a deeper look at other possible causes. It’s a tough spot, but you’re on the right track trying to get clarity.

      I totally agree, it’s so much more than just the physical struggle that occurs, there is the emotional struggle that goes along with it. It’s almost like you’re always navigating people who are uncomfortable with your needs and that pressure really wears you down. The fact is, the one that really did care will understand. This has nothing to do with you being a burden, it’s about protecting your health, first and foremost. If they don’t like being honest, that’s their problem.

      @ABP2025, Here's some studies and articles that will help you learn more about thiamin and all... I will write more later. It's possible that your antibiotic for giardiasis has caused thiamine deficiency.   https://hormonesmatter.com/metronidazole-toxicity-thiamine-deficiency-wernickes-encephalopathy/ And... https://hormonesmatter.com/thiamine-deficiency-testing-understanding-labs/ And...
