Celine Dion may have gotten the shots and Zn/Mg maybe low and gluten issues worse. She is from Canada…far from the equator/low sunlight which trigger gluten issues. Not eating may make microscropic gluten hurt a person. A hair test to see good mineral levels/heavy metal levels. Quercetin to get Zn into cells. Taking Zn/Mg and any low mineral and detoxing heavy metals may help. Milk thistle/dandelion may help detox with lots of water at night. LDN may help which blocks low amounts of gluten. Vit D3/sunlight may help and more. Low Zn may affect taste/smell. Low Mg may not let muscles relax. No gluten/dairy/soy/sugar/GMO/food with label/heated oils may help and taking vitamins/good oils/minerals…probiotic…LDN..detoxing.
Dr. Osborne,
I think it would be great if you could reach out to the doctors of Celine Dion. I’m positive
you would be a great help to her.
The world would be forever grateful!

Even in Canada, the doctors and hospitals should be up on gluten-intolerance as a cause for all or most diseases. Research is one thing that the Internet was meant to do — help doctors with research. I googled this subject, Stiff Person Syndrome and gluten issues, and there was a huge list of links to go through. Doctors should hire research assistants to research or ask for help from a friend or partner, but it should always be on the list.
How about armchair physicians keep their opinions to themselves? Ms Dion no doubt has the very best attention money can buy, she is likely to have consulted widely and continues to seek consultation and advice. I am pretty sure she does not need or want unsolicited commentary from self-opinionated people who have never met her, have not had access to her medical, nutritional or psychological records and have not consulted with her or her medical and other advisors making spurious diagnoses and treatment protocols.
Karen,
Why do you take such offense to a learning opportunity that has the potential to help others with SPS who might benefit from a gluten free diet? This article and commentary in no way insults or makes assumptions about Celine’s intentions or capacity to seek treatment. Spurious indeed!
Hi Dr Osborne,
Many thanks for your tireless work to help people to become aware of the dangers of eating a grain diet. I have been following you for awhile now.
I, myself, have found that I am almost pain free when eliminating grain from my diet, although I seem to be able to tolerate most rice.
My question is, for years I had gradual worsening of stiffness in both my legs. I suffered chronic advanced severe osteoarthritis in my hips, and I had only motion forward and backwards in my legs. I underwent PPR treatment in my hips a year ago, and of course now I am much more mindful of my diet. I am slowly getting more rotation in my hips with aqua- aerobics. My groin muscle on the left still cramps up when I have my left leg spread apart. Also I have found that my muscle strength has decreased rapidly, and have2 torn muscles in my left shoulder, osteoarthritis and a frozen shoulder.
I am assuming this is all caused by a lifelong undiagnosed gluten intolerance condition. I had celiac testing about 10 years ago which was negative. Or perhaps is it because of the glysophate poisoning, or both.
I would be very interested to know what you think about the chronic stiffness.
Stop eating rice. Could be part of your problem.
If you do, let me know if it helps.
All the best,
Dr. O
Please forgive an old guy for possibly looking at this from a different angle BUT has anyone considered that it might be the LACK of gluten that may be contributing to this stiff person syndrome. It seems to me Celine Dion was on a gluten-free diet BEFORE she developed the SPS and I suspect most of the others that identify as gluten sensitive were as well. Just like a lack of electrolytes can cause muscle spasms, maybe gluten is meant to react with the GABA, at least it might be worth some research. Also I have heard European gluten is tolerated much better than NA gluten so it might be worth introducing it into a SPS person’s diet.
