Hey guys!

I buy my charcoal and probiotics at Whole Foods. My friend with Celiac was saying that the gelatin and cellulose in capsules are made from grain. most of the time. I have no idea if that is true or not.

Do any of u buy ur charcoal and probiotics at whole foods?

Can you please tell me what brand u buy that is gluten free or that does not make u react?

I have been super sick this week and who knows if the two i have are causing it or not.

Thank u!

Yes, I got probiotics from whole foods. Udo's super 8 (my daughter takes this) and renew life criticial care 50 billion, and renew life adult 15 billion (other daugher takes these - helps to keep her well, better than vit c).

On Monday I am switching to a new one....Dr. Ohhira's probiotics 12 plus. They have vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. You have to take a loading dose of these, so I may be feeling a bit down after I start. But I have good feelings about this one, I have heard a ton of great things about this product.

I have been sick before taking probiotics...that is actually a good sign that they are working. It was my first kind,

flora jen3, I got them from a pharmacy....but after a short time I was okay... I did like that brand, it just wasn't strong enough, I have to take them to many times during the day. Perhaps you cut back on the dose and then build up to what you are taking. Nature's way optima was one that I could not take very well, I think it was the capsule, if I opened up the capsule I was okay, but taking it with the capsule, I was in agony.

I have come a long way, and I believe the probiotics have been a major help in that!

I have not taken a charcoal pills, I have thought about it, but haven't

      Question on if i can contact my gastro doctor whenever?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @lsky! In Canada I believe your healthcare system is totally socialized so I doubt if you have the option of making direct appointments with specialists. In the U.S. it is becoming more and more that way as most people here now are covered by some government managed healthcare network and almost all providers and specialists are part of those networks. Here and there you will find independent providers that take private pay only but it is the exception. Both in Canada and in the U.S. I believe there is a concerted effort to always keep the PCP in the loop.

      Question on if i can contact my gastro doctor whenever?

      By lsky · Posted

      I have had celiac disease since i was 7 and i've recently had worsening symptoms, I live in canada and the doctors right now are horrible so my general doctor never puts in my referrals or she does it wrong and i have to wait months-years for an answer. I was wondering I already have a Gastroenterologist, could i just contact him and ask to book an upcoming appointment? i'm not sure if it's different in canada or not.

      Symptoms after ingesting gluten

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum @Juliana82! Bleeding where? Thanks for the articles on seronegative celiac disease. As I recall, one of our moderators is seronegative and has been faithful to draw our attention to this phenomenon at different times. The heterozygous factor seronegative celiac disease is an important factoid I believe.

      Toddler Diagnosis?

      By Wrensmith · Posted

      With such a weak positive, his got may or may not be cleared in three months. My daughter when diagnosed at the age of seven had a TTG score of 388. It was 18 months on a gluten-free diet before her levels returned to normal. it seems to me that when you started something that allows your son to gain weight, as he clearly needs to do, you may want to keep doing it.  Sometimes you just need to figure out the science of it as you go along. Have you been tested?  That’s how I found out I had celiac disease, was after my daughter was diagnosed, and the recommendation given to me was that all of her first-degree relations should be tested as well. I came back with a weak positive when I was on a largely, though not entirely, gluten-free diet (cooking for my newly diagnosed child). good luck with everything.

      Does anyone have bleeding after eating gluten? You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not very common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/
