Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 I was wondering whether chelation can cure celiac disease. I have read a lot about chelation fixing the intestines and curing gluten and casein intolerance for people with autism. I understand there is a difference between being sensitive to gluten and having celiac disease. Celiac disease has a genetic component. Dr Cutler writes that autoimmune disease can be cured in many cases after completing chelation. I found some info about a possible treatment for celiac disease. For those that understand the heavy metal toxicity problem quite well, I was hoping maybe somebody could find a link/connection between the info below and mercury/heavy metal toxi- city. Thanks in advance. Greetings, Ali ''Celiac.com 02/10/2008 - Researchers have found a 10mer durum wheat peptide capable of shifting a Th1 gluten-intolerant T cell response to a Th2 gluten-tolerant T cell response in intestinal T cell cultures derived from celiac disease children and incubated with deamidated gliadin peptides. Durum wheat peptides could potentially treat celiac disease by causing celiac disease associated T cells to react tolerantly to gluten. In the study, incubation of the T cell cultures with deamidated gliadin peptides resulted in a significant increase in T cell proliferation and interferon-gamma release. Simultaneous exposure to duram wheat peptides totally abolished the cell proliferation and cytokine release while maintaining an elevated release of interleukin-10 (IL-10).
