Need Advice For Intestinal Healing


Alicia

Recommended Posts

Alicia Rookie

I have been gluten free for a little over a year now but am still having a lot of pain after I eat.

I am also suffering from severe constipation and major bloating which is aweful for the self asteem.

I have been taking probiotics and digestive enzymes but they don't seem to be helping much.

Does anybody have any advice for me? How do I repair my intestinal lining and what should I be taking?

Also what helps calm down your intestines if you have been glutened by accident?

Ok obviously I need a lot of help!!!

I no you said you were gluten free alread, buy maybe it is other intorlerences like dairy, or soy or corn. Maybe you have to cut down to the basics like fruits, veggies, chicken and fish for a few week and then start to add things when you start feeling better. I know this has worked for others.

Many have found a magnesium supplement to be very helpful for the things you've mentioned. I'd recommend a powder or liquid form to ensure the most effective absorption. Many of the ones available on the market also contain calcium, which is another nutrient which is often deficient in Celiacs.

I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the help I hate the elimination diet I've tried it before and then failed.

I know though that I need to stick with it it's just so hard with family gatherings and everything.

I'm going to stop complaining and give it another try though.

thanks for the suggestions!!!!!!!

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Hello, Target recently changed their branding on the Up & Up Loratadine and no long have it labeled gluten free. I've not been able to find any meds labeled gluten free for allergies. Some lists showed them but the the packaging isn't labeled.  Wondering if anyone knows of or has a list that would be safe for Celiac kiddos.

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.
