Guest guest Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Why would you bother. First off, if you're on the diet you're not eating gluten and therefore not having related symptoms or problems. When you finish the diet, you'll either know for sure that you don't need to have the test or you'll be in better shape health wise to cope with eating gluten for a month. If you've already been off gluten why would you put yourself through something that only tells you not to eat gluten?

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Hi, guys, I feel like I need an official diagnosis...first of all, just to know 100% that that's what's been going on. Second, because being Celiac is a way of life--far more than just eating, you have to consider things like " What's in my lip balm? " " Can I kiss my boyfriend after he's just had a sip of beer? " and so on. Basically if I'm going to be anal retentive for the rest of my life (more than I just naturally am)--and asking others to humor me in this sort of thing--I want to make sure it's for good a reason. I just feel like I need to be sure. Thanks, N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel like I need to be sure. > Hi . The celiac sites go overboard about avoiding gluten, which isn't necessary. It is most important to eliminate foods that contain gluten. After candida is cured you won't be celiac anymore. In other words, celiac isn't for life. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to avoid them as much as possible even after my candida is cured. It just doesn't seem like a good idea to eat them because they are so hard to digest. Do you think that is not necessary? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to > avoid them as much as possible even after my candida is cured. It just doesn't seem like a good idea to eat them because they are so hard to digest. Do you think that is not necessary? ++Hi . No, gluten grains are definitely not necessary, and I don't think they are a good idea even when you are perfectly healthy. That is because gluten grains have been so messed up for a very long time. I read that most of them have been genetically modified since the early 1900s. They inherently contain mycotoxins (fungal-type toxins) which occurs when they are growing, so it is impossible to avoid them. I avoid them, but I don't get sick from them now like I did when I had candida. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to be able to have at least the Ezekiel bread every once in a while after my candida is cured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
