I have been sick for over thirty years to find out once I stopped eating gluten, dairy and yeast I felt the best I had in over thirty years. Why are regular doctors not telling this to patients? I then developed Hashimotos and although I am not a true Celiac patient I do know that when I had stopped the Gluten,diary and yeast I was fine. I hope that people read this and try it and I mean not even a little gluten it can set off things. To think all this time it wss the food is unbelievable. I am determined to spread the word to help others so they do not suffer like this. Just because you have a intolerance or sensitivity there is not always tests available for this I would certainly tell anyone who is sick to just stop this for a couple of weeks and see how you feel. I was bed ridden in a electric scooter could not walk all because of this. In three weeks I was better and riding a bicycle. Please try this you have nothing to loose.
I’ve been borderline hypothyroid since childhood. Two years after my second C-section, my thyroid went. Synthroid did nothing for my fatigue, and I didn’t lose the weight I thought I would after a year on it. I decided to diet by cutting out all gluten, starches, and sugar. Five months later, no more constipation that plagued me my whole life, and I felt better and my thyroid returned to nornal and I was weened off Synthroid. Over the years gluten slipped back into my diet in small amounts since it would put weight on me fast if I ate too much of it( I was always watching my weight). I did’t feel as well anymore either. I’m now post menopausal for 6 years, and I recently lost the outer third of my eyebrows again and I generally feel like crap. If I am hypothyroid again, I hope staying gluten free will correct this in 2 or 3 years.
I have been sluggish and in awful pain for over 30 years. In addition,even though I have never been over weight I always felt bloated. Extremely low thyroid affected my equilibrium at first. My thyroid was practically non-functioning. I was put on such strong dosages of Armour thyroid — they would kill most people. Over the years I developed severe fibromyalgia, joint pain, dysautonomia. Always hoping that somehow I could manage to get thru the day. About 9 yrs ago I found a product with tons of phytonutrients from fruits and veggies. Suddenly, my thyroid started working again — see my website if you like. My doctor was nervous cuz he had to monitor me closely as the meds could cause me to become hyper instead. That was about 7 years ago. Still, I had many of the symptoms listed above. Part of the battle won but it still continued at a milder pace. About 2 months ago I felt like my throat was closing very frequently after eating. I was given a nudge by my higher self to eliminate flour and yeast. Wow! No more closing up of my throat, no more bloating, much less pain, more energy, etc. I am still on half the dosage of thyroid (altho it is synthroid now cuz Armour was not available for a long time). I consume a lot of food and remain quite thin. Best of all, no bloating or difficulties breathing. Some advice, when you go to a restaurant make sure that they do not put flour in mashed potatoes. Yep, they do that for what reason I do not know. I am able to eat bread made with sprouted grains just fine. I am talking about Ezekiel. I especially like the raisin one and the sesame one is good too. I wish I had figured this out years ago cuz my life would have been changed so much for the better . . .I was usually too sick to get done what I needed to do — always pushing myself. Now I am playing catch up — but grateful. Better late than never.
