  1. She eats broccoli, green beans, and carrots fine, which we have almost every night with dinner. She usually has 3 or so servings of whole fruit per day and I am obnoxious about how much water she drinks. I am almost 32 years old and I like most everything, but I am not really a zucchini fan although I will eat it. I agree with the time to heal aspect of it...
  2. So I definitely think she might still be intolerant, which is why I limit her to only a cup of organic whole milk per day. It doesn't bother her stomach at all, probably because it's high fat. She usually has it in her gluten-free cereal before school. Although, we had an Against The Grain plain cheese pizza last night for supper as a treat, and she felt...
  3. She literally never stops moving. She plays outside for several hours when she isn't at school. Movement isn't the issue. She also eats a lot of fruits and veggies, but smoothies are not a bad idea.
  4. Do you have fructose malabsorption? I struggled with that for the better part of last year but its slowly getting better.
  5. I tried a magnesium glycinate supplement on myself. It definitely cleans you out but it's not very gentle LOL I'll look into food sources, although I've read they aren't enough DV.
  6. No we are a strict soy free house. My 5 year old has had a terrible soy allergy since birth. Honestly, I think my (undiagnosed at the time) celiac disease during pregnancy combined with my csections contributed to the problems with food my girls have. When I eat soy, I get acne and other skin issues almost immediately. But that's a story for another time...
  7. Eat whole food as much as possible and get a sublingual vitamin d supplement. Life extension and superior source are excellent. If you are anemic, red meat is your friend. Basically, even though it's easier to transition by purchasing all the processed gluten free packaged foods, you need whole foods to heal. I eat a lot of meat, veggies, and butter, and...
  8. My 9 year old daughter suffers from chronic constipation. She's gluten free since October. She can tolerate very little dairy. I finally got Miralax to clean her out and she's been feeling lighter and even her behavior is better. I hate the ingredients though. Polyethelyne glycol *shudders*. I hate it, even though it's helping, but constipation must be just...
  9. Also, all digestive enzyme products are created from mold. I cannot eat yogurt or take priobiotics either and that's related. Anything fermented or aged might give you trouble with a mold allergy. Research something called histamine intolerance.
  10. There are theories out there stating that non celiac gluten sensitivity simply means your body isn't damaged enough to pop hot on blood tests. All that's really saying is if you keep eating gluten, you're just as bad off as a celiac who has been diagnosed. Do you really need a definitive diagnosis to change your diet and see if that helps your rash...
  11. I am so sorry to hear of your cancer diagnosis. My husband was just diagnosed with testicular cancer right after Christmas. Nowhere near the same situation as you, but I empathize. It's great how serious about your diet and nutrition you are. Something to consider: there is a strong link between colon cancer and celiac. When looking for celiac family...
  12. Yes. You absolutely, 100% can develop new symptoms if you go off gluten and then consume it. One of my biggest symptoms was DH all over my hands. It was also my 9 year old's most noticeable symptom on her face. However, my 5 year old was totally asymptomatic. We took her off gluten for 6 weeks, and when we reintroduced to test she broke out in DH all over...
  13. Just looking for insight or info or experiences. I have read on here quite a few times that iodine can worsen DH and keep a flare going longer. Does anyone know why this is? I cannot tolerate yogurt because of histamine intolerance, but my daughters like it. They both have DH as do I. My 5 year old has had a heck of time though, and it definitely flares or...
  14. I buy Nature's Way Alive! chewables, but I actually find it makes my older celiac daughter irritable, the other one has no side effects. The I have looked high and low for gluten-free allergy friendly vitamins. I can't take anything other than sublingual because it stresses my liver out more. Be careful of that. The longer you have been undiagnosed the more...
