How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

I wonder if refractory celiac is just people reacting to other lectins they’ve not yet identified. If I was rich I’d spend all the money on igg tests and give them out freely to people when they sign up to this site, I’d never heard anything about other lectins until kitty pointed them out, probably lots of people in the same boat as me. My theor...

Thanks kitty, I needed reminding about thiamine. I ran out of magnesium so stopped taking it and that was ages ago, it definitely helps with my energy levels and general function. I just took some now and I’ll get some more magnesium. Although I don’t really understand the gundry list it does seem to correlate with foods I can/cannot eat, lectins are...

@knitty kitty maybe I’m a little out of touch with fashion having been pretty much bed ridden for so long but this seems ridiculous to me.. ‘As a result of their potential for toxicity and their “anti-nutritional effects” it is almost inevitable that lectin exclusion could well become a big food fad‘ I just can’t imagine anyone avoiding lectins if ...
-
Thanks, sorry for all the questions but in the above link.. ’Remember, nearly all tests and screening for celiac disease require the patient to be eating a gluten-containing diet before testing’ I guess this also applies to other lectins so you would need to be eating them in order to find out via igg/ige testing which ones you’re reacting to? I...

Hi Trents, there’s a test centre here that tests for igg and ige antibodies, would neither of these pick up celiac disease? I haven’t had the test because I didn’t know about it until I’d already been along the elimination diet route and it’s pretty obvious if I eat the wrong thing because I swell up like a balloon and my guts bleed. Possibly another a...

Abscesses on legs
Liquid lunch replied to LookingForAnswers101's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
@LookingForAnswers101Ooh I can also eat coconut, and probably because the ingredients are so highly processed I can eat gluten free bread even though it contains ingredients I can’t usually tolerate. I’m currently trying high lectin foods that've been through a pressure cooker but not much luck so far, pressure cooked mashed potatoes are fine but nee... -

I don’t think it matters much, there’s another type of cordyceps but I’m not sure if there’s a lot of difference, the one I’m using is cordyceps sinensis from maesyffin in wales, sinensis is the one with a long history of medicinal use in china. I think the alcohol (vodka) in the tincture helps with uptake vs taking capsules. And yes, changing my diet h... -

Liquid lunch replied to LookingForAnswers101's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
I had these for years, covered in scars from them. Not had any since I started taking reishi and cordyceps tincture, they’re immune modulators, I think that’s how they work. Most of my other symptoms have also disappeared, I take a treble dose if I get glutened and it’s almost an instant fix, 3 days of mild symptoms instead of 3 weeks of horrible. ... -

I don’t think it matters much if you trust the supplier, I get them from a Welsh company maesyffin mushrooms but I think the guy there has retired from growing now and just resells eu imports so it’s probably the same mushrooms he uses to make the tinctures as the company you posted. It’d probably be cheaper to buy dried and make your own tincture. -
I can’t say this will work for everyone but for me the difference is incredible so might be worth trying. I’ve never been diagnosed celiac but via an elimination diet I realised I can’t eat any lectins, gluten soy and oats are particularly problematic. If I eat them I’m in bed for a week, then heavy bleeding and extreme pain for another, followed by a th...

Ah thanks, it did seem odd people buying stuff as a heath supplement that is so damaging. Not sure I’d risk eating anything extracted from soy or sunflower anyway but it explains the mystery.
-
Wow I didn’t know Lactobacillus made lectins, these things are everywhere! I know they must have some heath benefits because I see things like soy and sunflower lectins for sale in health food shops, often wondered why people buy them. It’s pretty extreme to cut them out but they are the only common factor in the massive list of foods that make my gut...

I used to like pickled cucumbers but sadly they’re high lectin. There is a correlation between microbiome dysbiosis and auto immune disease, that’s for sure. I tried grass fed a2 raw milk but still had issues. Lactose free milk was worse so it’s not the lactose.
-
Yup, and I don’t eat meat. It’s easier than it sounds and there are ways to reduce lectins, soaking, fermenting, pressure cooking. I’ve found I can eat pressure cooked mash potatoes but rice I have to cook it to a mush to make it safe and can’t tolerate fermented soya. Dr gundry also talks a bit about Neu5Gc in meat and dairy which displaces Neu5Ac ...

I’ve had a bit of a breakthrough re other intolerances, largely thanks to knittykitty pointing out that pumpkin seeds contain lectins, I didn’t even know gluten was a lectin! So is avenin in oats, they’re in most foods, chilli is high in lectins. I’ve cut out all lectins and the difference is incredible, I thought everything must be cross contaminated with gl...
