    Lysine and vitamins may help with canker sores.

    If you have pain in your toes has the doctor ruled out gout (it is an immune reaction triggered by uric acid crystals)?
  3. Blue-Sky
    Yes. Just so long as it is gluten free. You might also want to take a little bit of prebotic type of food with it at least. Finely ground vegetables would work well for this. Fiber helps bacteria survive the stomach. Smoke from gluten containing things is fine.

    Here is a relevant quote from the paper (I don't think spices are an issue): "Many polypeptide chains in dietary proteins containing prolamine fractions (e.g. maize), and even some that contain no fractions at all, may contain potentially toxic sequences including tetrapeptides PSQQ, QQQP, QQPY or QPYP. However, these proteins are not etiologic factors...

    Your welcome. It could be that the oats gave just enough of a boost to help you. I wouldn't overlook fiber though as it might help increase vitamin absorption or lots of other things. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jgh.15830

    That seems like an unusual reaction to oats. I don't know if it is immune related or not and that the body has problems adjusting to different levels of inflammation quickly. Oats help with balancing blood sugar levels though and may help getting the right bacteria in the right spot which could help with reducing inflammation.

    Here is some more information on nutritional deficiency and IBS. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jgh.15830

    Since you were taking a multivitamin, that makes it less likely to be a problem. The body will try to up regulate the absorption of vitamins if they are deficient and hang on to them longer. Fiber has a ton of antinflamitory properties. Oats are extremely high in fiber. You might try other high fiber foods to see if they help or supplement.

    Sesame seeds and olives are probably good. It is likely for sesame seeds that they take steps to make sure that all dirt or contaminates are removed from the seeds before they are packaged. It is unlikely that wheat or wheat flour contaminates those machines. My guess is that highly processed foods like candy for example, which require more steps along...

    Dietary fiber (soluble and insoluble) can help stabilize blood sugar and reduce sugar cravings, and it is something that most people do not get enough of.

    If you have a pressure cooker you could experiment and see if that method works. Pressure cookers, I think should increase the pressure within the egg, since they will heat the egg up past the normal boiling point. You might be able to tell if it is pressure vs steam that is making it more digestible.

    That will depend on what type of gluten free foods you eat. Whole wheat is a goods source of fiber. If you buy a supplement make sure you get one that is labelled gluten free. Also most commercial fiber products are about 3/4 sugar which isn't helpful. Both insoluble and soluble fiber can improve symptoms of IBS. Soluble fiber can reduce the symptoms...

    A different option is to try different options until you find something that works well. Soluble fiber helps with IBS and IBS-C. There are lots of different supplements or foods with fiber, just make sure they are gluten free. Probiotics may help. There is information online SSRIs are effective for treating IBS from crohns and UC. Zinc...

    Yes making sure it is gluten free is important. Also psyllium husks products often contain other sugars that can't be digested in the intestine and may make symptoms worse. Here is another interesting link on the topic: https://www.nature.com/articles/nrgastro.2016.197#:~:text=Low dietary fibre induces colonic mucus layer erosion by microbiota...

    I would try supplementing with soluble fiber regularly, some probiotics, along with some flavinoids (say from tea) and eating a mainly vegetable based diet for a while to get optimum bacteria. Psyllium husks are a good option, as they may reduce the symptoms of IBS-d. I did a thread earlier on that topic. An elimination diet such as the AIP or Dr. Fresno...

    I think it is zinc at the time of diagnosis, if I remember correctly, but other ones like b12 are also common. I started a thread on zinc deficiency a while back with more information.

    There are different types of autoimmune disorders that can attack the nerves in the body. Some these show some genetic overlap with celiac disease. So a diet that is helpful for MS for example may also be helpful for other types of nerve damage. Olive leaf extract or green tea compounds, oil of oregano, cysteine, NAC, theanine, glutamine, a high antioxidant...

    Have they checked your blood uric acid levels? Do salad (a low inflammation food) trigger the pain? (For some people foot pain and hand pain after eating certain foods is a possible symptom of gout. The immune system attacks uric acid deposits in the body. High, low or normal uric acid levels can occur during a gout attack. A rise or a drop in uric...

    If you do decide take psyllium I would start with small amounts so that your body gets used to it. Also take it with water. I have read online that is is best to start out with small amounts of fiber mixed with water and then keep doing that for a week or so before you add more psyllium. It may take a while to get the right bacteria in the gut and for someones...

    Psyllium husks help with both IBS-D or IBS-C. I suspect that psyllium husks get mixed in with everything else fairly quickly and that the fibers block leaky gut. Insoluble fiber promotes the growth of good bacteria in the gut and speeds things up lower down. Soluble fiber slows down digestion but may get broken down fairly quickly in the digestive...

    PPI block the stomachs ability to release acid. There are high acid and low acid foods and an index for that. Since the stomach helps balance the bodies acid/base status I can see why PPI could be problematic. Proteins aren't digested in the stomach entirely, which is fine as the intestine is long and bacteria can digest things effectively. I wouldn...

    I don't know about the tongue colors....However here are a few other ideas you might try. Some people may have an off colored tongue though anyway so I am not sure if that is a good indication of anything or not. You can try the AIP diet as it works for IBS in a lot of cases. Since you are supplementing with vitamins I doubt that is the problem...

    For those wondering about getting the covid vaccine: https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-health-941fcf43d9731c76c16e7354f5d5e187 There may be 0? (I don't know) people in the hospital because they took the vaccine. People tend to overestimate the risk of the vaccine and underestimate the danger of covid.

    If he hasn't been tested for celiac disease he could still be celiac. Non-classic celiac disease is actually more common than classical celiac disease. Silent celiac disease is also fairly common. If someone is Celiac they have a greater chance of also having one or more food allergy. A gluten free diet in this case would not cure the food allergy.
