How To Quicken Recovery After Ingesting Gluten & Soy


David7

Recommended Posts

Hi,

How can you reduce the symptoms that you experience after ingesting an item to which you have an intolerance? - For example in my case specifically gluten and soy.

What are some herbs or supplements that can aid in quickening the recovery process -Perhaps things that help the body cycle out the offending items.

Here are some I have been experimenting with and that I believe help:

1. Flax seed

2. Papaya

3. Pineapple

4. Aloe Vera Juice

5. Vitamin C tablets

6. Detox Tea by Yogi

7. Red Clover Tea by Alvita

8. Echinacea Tea by Traditional Medicinals

9. Peppermint Tea by Traditional Medicinals

10. Buffered Vitamin C Powder by Nutricology (contains Magnesium and Potassium)

11. Magnesium Tablets - (I've read helps, been using it, but I'm not certain of its effectiveness)

In an IgG test I came up positive for intolerance of several items, most notably Whole Wheat, Gluten, and Soy.

I believe that whenever I ingest these my reaction is severe sinus congestion as well as what I can only describe as a tightening of my throat or excess mucous coating my throat.

If I unintentionally ingest something I'd like to be clear of my reactions as soon as possible.

-David

Interesting theory. I didn't know there was ANYTHING that could be done other than deal with it while it's going on. I have EXTREME itching and sores in very private places along with diarrhea. It sometimes takes days after the contamination passes to get rid of the rashes and sores. Sure would be nice to find some sort of shortcut thru all that!!

      I use Listerine.  Rinse first to soften the tarter, then brush with Oral B electric toothbrush super sonic.  The $15 ones at the supermarket.  At 73 I still have all my teeth.  While a blood test can measure iodine levels, it's not the most accurate method for assessing iodine status, and urinary iodine excretion is considered a better indicator.  Have any of your dermatologists ever done a biopsy for dermatitis herpetiformis?  I may have missed it.  Note the similarity of Casal's necklace to one of your symptoms. Pellagra rash is a characteristic skin manifestation of niacin (vitamin B3) deficiency. It typically presents as:  Erythema: Red, sunburned-like areas of skin, often on the face, neck, arms, and legs.  Scaliness: Dry, flaky skin that may become thickened and crusty.  Hyperpigmentation: Darkened patches of skin, particularly in sun-exposed areas.  Casal's necklace: A dark, pigmented band around the neck.  I am currently taking these} Vitamin D 10,000 IU (250 mcg) DHEA 100 mg 500 mcg Iodine  10 drops of Liquid Iodine B1 Thiamin 250 mg  B2 Riboflavin 100 mg B3 Nicotinic Acid 500 mg 4 times a day for hyperlipidemia. B5 Pantothenice Acid 500 mg Vitamin C 500 mg     Selenium 200 mcg  Several times a week

      I will. Thanks. I did just have mg B12 drawn. I should also state that I am already taking a Vit D supplement, as I live in the US in New England sand just about everyone who lives here is deficient, esp during our winters with less exposure to natural sunlight. I was also taking a chewable bariatric vitamin as well because of my food issues related to my cancer treatment (which was many years ago, but there are long term effects.) I just stopped it because I was unable to get any gluten information about it. And it did contain iodine. Is there even a vitamin that doesn’t? I don’t know, but I will check. I also take Calcium and Magnesium in the form of “Rolaids” for leg cramps/spasms, with good effects. Thanks.

      @Itsabit, Ask your doctor for an erythrocyte transkelatose test to measure thiamine.  It's a better measure of thiamine deficiency than a serum test.

      Most toothpastes are naturally gluten-free, but this article may be helpful:

      This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
