Guest guest Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 I have always believed in this and I could not any tolerate grains or wheat. Dairy and gluten grains are supposed to cause issues specifically because they cannot be digested because the enzyme is affected by mercury (DPPIV I think). I am 1.5 yrs into chelation and I can now eat rice, potatoes, and just recently I have introduced rye sourdough with none of the old symptoms of fatigue & digestive disturbances.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I'm intolerant to gluten. I found out recently. No GI symptoms, but problems with negative mood, energy problems, and hormones gone wonky. Once you go gluten free, your gut can begin to heal. If you begin to eat gluten again someday, it's possible there could be a period of time of silent damage to your gut until symptoms are bad enough to recognize again. If you want to test if you're still intolerant to gluten, you need to have been eating gluten for a period of time before the test or you will test falsely negative. The question I have is can someone who is gluten intolerant eat gluten on a limited basis with the help of a strong protease enzyme. Some say yes. Some say no.

In a general sense I think mercury is involved possibly through several mechanisms. > Will it go away with chelation? > In the autism mercury group parents are reporting that sensitivity to foods and supplements reduce as chelation proceeds and eventually to away (assuming that 'proper' chelation is used. The problems get worse with improper chelation). Evidence is found in chelation group archives. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tested positive for mild gluten and whey sensitivity through ALCAT last summer. Severe intolerance to sugar. I played around with the diet over the summer but not 100% compliant. I gave up gluten completely almost 2 weeks ago and have noticed things happening. My pain and joint stiffness is improving. I did gorge on it right before I went totally off it and experienced bloating and horrible anxiety so that was the clincer for me. Now I have to be serious about the sugar and the dairy. AAaaargh! That is a huge adjustment. Regarding the mercury connection?? Good question. I was at a family event recently and found that major digestive issues go back generations in my family. So, is it Celiac/gluten intolerance or is it mercury? The symptoms for gluten intolerance can be very similiar to mercury toxicity. I have had major stress in my life and have resorted to Adderall and now diet to deal with my health issues. Chelation (getting up round the clock) was just too much stress. Also, just got back my pyroluria results and I had a score of 47 - normal is <20. So....what is what here? Val Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 It' very possible that it's from mercury. I know an adult with mostly mercury filled teeth, just diagnosed gluten intolerant at 60 some years old. The man is obviously mercury toxic. Mercury destroys enzymes in the gut and thus you cannot digest things properly. It also promotes the overgrowth of yeast which causes gut permeability (leaky gut) allowing that partially digested food to get through. Your immune system does not like finding gluten particles in the blood stream and thus an immune reaction occurs. The same thing happens in celiac or Sprue, etc. etc. I think they are all one in the same. It might go away with chelation if enough time away from these substances, removal of metals, healing of the gut wall so no partially digested foods get through has taken place. Some adults report being able to tolerate these foods once again after enough chelation and healing has taken place. > > Atistic kids often do not digest wheat and dairy.
