Re: Gluten intolerance forever?

[Guest guest]

True celiac disease is genetic and is for life.

Gluten intolerance, I'm not so certain, but some people with " only "

intolerance seem to have to be gluten free forever too.

We just are not really designed to eat grains, though some people

tolerate them much better than others.

I'd say-- gluten free/grain free until your candida is gone and until

all your candida and other symptoms are totally gone, then try a

challenge. You may find you are not willing after all to go back to the

pain and GI symptoms of gluten eating. FWIW, most celiacs do eat grains,

they just don't eat the ones that contain gluten. But I've done strict

gluten free diets for weeks at a time twice, and it didn't help me. The

non-gluten grains seem to bother me as much as the gluten grains like

wheat.

I'm not sure of what the longterm consequences of eating gluten is when

a person is gluten intolerant but not celiac. But the longterm

consequences of eating gluten when a person is Celiac can be death from

organ damage. An acquaintance here was in her 40s before being diagnosed

because she was overweight, and the medical majority opinion is that for

celiac to be present you must be unable to maintain normal body weight,

forget overweight. She died of liver damage caused by her Celiac

Disease, while waiting for a liver transplant.

There are certain life and diet decisions we must each make on the basis

of what we feel defines a life worth living, combined with how much

daily discomfort/pain we are willing to put up with in order to keep our

preferred lifestyle and diet. For some people feeling well and living

longer aren't enough to keep them away from damaging diets or habits.

I hope I don't sound critical or too abrupt, I'm struggling with similar

life choices myself.

I would suggest avoiding gluten completely for 2-6 months (depending on

how intolerant you are), then slowly adding it back into your diet. If

you are taking treatments that is killing off yeast and bacteria, that

may add to your allergic reactions so there is a chance that, when

you've got the yeast under control, you could be able to eat gluten

again. One factor that people often overlook is that your leaky gut

syndrome (which I assume always occurs with candidiasis) has to heal as

well. I've also read that digestive enzymes help with gluten intolence

but that was in a forum so who knows if that's true.
