    I'm in the UK and normally buy Plenish or Rude Health brand. I can't stomach coconut cream or oil but milk from a carton is ok.
  3. MiriamW
    Silk brand seems to have far too many ingredients including Sunflower Lecithin and Gellan Gum. Coconutmilk (Filtered Water, Coconut Cream), Cane Sugar, Contains 2% or Less Of: Vitamin and Mineral Blend (Calcium Carbonate, Vitamin E Acetate, Vitamin A Palmitate, Vitamin D2, Vitamin B12), Dipotassium Phosphate, Sea Salt, Sunflower Lecithin, Gellan Gum...

    I guess we can get lots of calcium from green leafy vegetables but I share your frustration. I'm very much hoping that my gut will calm down at some point and I'll be able to reintroduce at least some more 'normal healthy' foods which are now causing problem. Re plant based milk, sometimes I have plain coconut milk without any additives in it. But that's...

    Is there any chance that you could have black mould in the house without knowing about it? I often read/hear about stories where people experienced similar health issues like you describe, for years they can't work out what the problem is until they discover hidden mould in their house. It's worth investigating too.

    @Raquel2021I also have Hashimoto. These days if I eat any nut butter I get itchy skin on my right calf, it's strange as it always happens in the same area. I have noticed that I can't tolerate any starch (i.e. tapioca, potato ...) or gums (guar, xanthan etc) which are used in large quantities in gluten-free bread and other products. When I first went on gluten...

    @Acacia VoynarI have a similar problem. I've been on a very strict gluten free diet, not eating out etc etc for a number of years but my gut lining remains inflamed. I've noticed that any starch makes me feel worse. I don't touch oats, dairy, nuts, seeds, none of the gums (like guar, xantham....) as I now react to all of them. My gastro specialist mentioned...

    @Raquel2021...I share your frustration. I've been on a very strict gluten-free diet for 10 years but seem to be getting worse. My gut seems to be more inflamed than ever, I've been loosing hair and most recently, I've started to get pain in my spine (accompanied by a big bruise like mark in the middle of my spine). I've seen my GP but it was a complete waste...

    @knitty kittythank you very much!

    @knitty kittyplease could you recommend some good source(s) for the Autoimmune Paleo diet? There are so many different books and websites out there and they vary in information.....hence I was wondering, who is your favourite author or website to go to? Many thanks

    @Scott Adamsthank you very much, it's great to hear your story. And what a noble idea to set up and run the Celiac.com website/community. You are making a huge difference to so many of us!

    @BNGed8I've just come across this old thread and was wondering....how are you getting on? Hope your health has improved!
  13. MiriamW
    @scott adams Hi Scott. Please can I ask which foods you had to eliminate and later on managed to reintroduce? Many thanks.
  14. MiriamW
    @CMCM please can I ask if your mum ended up eating any grains or nuts after her villi had regenerated? And what type of carbs do you eat? I am on a strict gluten-free diet and don't eat dairy but my duodenum isn't healing. You seem to be very strict and diligent with your diet hence I am very interested to find out what else you are avoiding. How about nuts...
  15. MiriamW
    If all of the above has been ruled out and you are 100% certain that there is no possibility of gluten cross contamination, you might wish to try eliminating dairy products too for a few months to see if it would help. Many coeliacs can't tolerate proteins in dairy products rather than lactose.

    Hi @knitty kitty I take a tablespoon of organic high lignan linseed oil daily. I was wondering, would you know if it is safe taking it daily long term?
  17. MiriamW
    @Rogol72thanks, it's good to know about Horsetail ! I've just started taking topical Iodine, will see how it goes.
  18. MiriamW
    @Rogol72have you decided which Fulvic acid product you would like to try? Victoria Health have their own product (Fulvic Elixir) which looks good too and has lots of great reviews.

    @Liquid lunchat the end of the day you know the best what feels right for you. I was thinking more of those that haven't tried it yet and thought it might be sensible to start gently....
  20. MiriamW
    @Liquid lunchyes I personally use a neat drop of lavender oil too when needed but for some people it can be too strong. I just thought that your 'recipe' for healing skin oil sounded excessive - I would say a few drops of essential oil rather than 2 parts....

    Juicing has helped me too but carrots and beetroot have too much sugar, not the best combination for inflammation. I normally use lots of cucumber, some celery, only a little bit of beetroot as it is too strong, one carrot and a lot of parsley (or kale, lettuce...). I don't use Vitamix as that is 'blending', I use a proper juicer which separates the veggie...

    @Liquid lunchthe 2 parts of tea tree essential oil sound very strong to me. So if you have a teaspoon of neem oil would you add 2 teaspoons of tea tree oil? Essential oils like tea tree are normally measured in drops.

    @trentsall autoimmune illnesses are linked and one can never dig deep enough... So far I haven't managed to pin point what causes my hair loss unfortunately but my guess is, it's to do with my gut issues. Histamine intolerance is part of that problem too.
  24. MiriamW
    Hi @Rogol72, thank you for this information. I've heard of Fulvic minerals and probiotics but haven't tried them so far. I've only had probiotics from Just Thrive which are spore based, I guess it might be a similar principal? All the products listed in your email sound great and your plan to supplement with trace minerals and micronutrients sounds very sensible...

    Thank you @knitty kitty, that's most helpful and the link is very informative! Last month I tried taking Thyroid Complex by Nutri Advanced (first 3 or 4 days just one tablet a day and then half a tablet a day for less than a week). Soon after starting the supplement my eyes were all itchy and achy, but I didn't link it to the supplement at first. Then...
