I would not recommended a commercial cleanse with a compromised digestive system, for those with Celiac. I also think that it's a gimmick for profit, directed to those who are ill. BUT, that's my opinion... that not all share. :)

Drinking extra water with lemon, is the best natural cleanse available, and it won't disrupt the balance of the good bacteria that helps us heal.

I agree completely with this. Cleanses are not IMHO safe for us.

I have seen a couple of doc's on news/talk shows that have said that food is all the way through in less than 24 hours. They said that if you feel that you must cleanse, no more than a 24 hour period of green tea and lemon water. They thought the ones on the market aren't safe for anyone. This makes sense because when having a colonoscopy, you have to have everything out. That is usually about a 24 hour process.

      Correct. I’m doing both in the same go though. Thanks for clarifying before I confused someone. I’m doing a colonoscopy for something else and then they added the endoscopy after the test.

      It is a biopsy but it's not a colonoscopy, it's an endoscopy.

      Well I’m going on the gluten farewell tour so they are about to find out lol. I keep saying biopsy but yeah it’s a scope and stuff. I’m a dummy but luckily my doctor is not.

      The biopsy for celiac disease is done of the small bowel lining and in conjunction with an "upper GI" scoping called an endoscopy. A colonoscopy scopes the lower end of the intestines and can't reach up high enough to get to the small bowel. The endoscopy goes through the mouth, through the stomach and into the duodenum, which is at the upper end of the intestinal track. So, while they are scoping the duodenum, they take biopsies of the mucosal lining of that area to send off for microscopic analysis by a lab. If the damage to the mucosa is substantial, the doc doing the scoping can often see it during the scoping.
