I had Covid 19.. did nothing much
PTArt replied to fllstuart77's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I would repeat: read more studies. Have you even checked the VAERS report on this 'vaccine', and done a minimal amount of reading? And are you ready to take responsibility should someone consider your words seriously? -

Scott, you really need to do your research and look at ALL the studies, such as the Cleveland Clinic study. You are giving medical advise where you have NO authority to do so. -
Ate Unwashed Strawberries
PTArt replied to StrongerThanCeliac's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Sometimes the strawberries are grown with wheat straw around the plants to prevent weed growth. I avoid strawberries for this reason. -
AIP Diet Can Help Some People with Celiac Disease and Other Autoimmune Conditions
PTArt commented on Scott Adams's article in Additional Concerns
I follow the AIP diet, with even more restrictions based on my own food intolerances which i found out through food intolerance testing. I have had Celiac most of my life without knowing it, hence lots of issues with my digestive tract. Also hypothyroid as well. Following the diet is hard, but it is so worth it! It is far better to go without a few tasty...- 4 comments

So sorry about your husband Susie. Have you had your thyroid checked?

Anyone here have Celiac with Candida albicans together?
PTArt replied to TigerV's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
Yes, I struggled with gluten intolerance and Candida for a long time. It took a very low carbohydrate diet, monolaurin, and lots of supplements. I ended up with multiple food intolerances, and it took a few years to really get it under control. It is possible to overcome it, just takes commitment. Good luck and stick with it! -

There are a few good lines of gluten free makeup. Epilynx is good, and I have used it; also Tarte and Pur Minerals.- 10 replies

Gluten in Antibiotics
PTArt replied to linzi100's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Honestly, I don’t take any chances with medications. I only take meds where the manufacturers can absolutely assure me they are gluten free. Teva makes a gluten free amoxicillin which I have used with no problem. -
Citric acid is also made from fermented mold, which you may be reacting to. I can’t tolerate it either.

When eating in “gluten free” restaurants I still ask my food to be cooked separately in aluminum foil to avoid cross contamination.- 8 comments

is it worth testing?
PTArt replied to Satah's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
How about trying a food intolerance test? You can do that through Cyrex labs or KBMO Diagnostics. You don’t have to be eating gluten for the test, and it will also test other foods. I found it to be accurate and extremely helpful. -
Help! Doctor wants to re-test!
PTArt replied to CanIEatThis's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
A gluten challenge is a bad idea. Get a food sensitivity test through KBMO Diagnostics, simple blood spot test will tell you what foods you are sensitive to, and you do not need to be consuming the food. A gluten challenge is not necessary and is dangerous. -
What do you eat when most of the foods make you sick?
PTArt replied to Fairy50-dust's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
I too have struggled with Candida for years along with celiac and other autoimmune issues. The best way to fight Candida is to eliminate all starches and sugars from any source whatsoever. That means vegetables and fruit as well. I would also recommend a food intolerance test from KBMO Diagnostics. It has been incredibly helpful to me in eliminating other... -
I feel for you. My mom had diarrhea, immensely swollen joints, headaches, etc...lost 100 lbs towards the end of her life. She died at 81 after years of suffering, no diagnosis. I have celiac as well as my 2daughters, and we know she had it too. So much suffering for a slice of bread.

The casein in milk is very similar to the gluten protein, and over time the ammune system can react to the casein as though it was gluten. This happens over time, and though you may have been able to consume dairy previously, you may have to avoid it now. Not good to suffer the consequences, it can do damage that you are not aware of.

Yes, you can have a thyroid problem without an enlarged thyroid, and without antibodies. You can have subclinical hypothyroidism which will then show up as hypo. It can also be a T4 to T3 conversion problem. If you can find a functional medicine doctor who will test your tsh,, free t4, free t3 and reverse t3 you will get the whole picture. Also a drop of...
