please can anyone help me with this?
I have been tested for coeliac and it was negative. My nutritionist had initially recommended a gluten and lactose free diet as I had a food sensitivity test which showed wheat and lactalbumin were an issue.
I’ve followed that diet for 4 months and just had my antibodies retested and they are exactly the same, no improvement. I would therefore say the gluten and lactalbumin weren’t causing much of a problem? It may be worth noting that my ferritin (which was previously over range has now reduced back into range - I’ve been told this could be a reduction in inflammation. Could this be due to the diet?)
ive read reports that any hashi sufferer should still cut out gluten as the immune system recognises it as thyroid tissue and it can trigger an attack. Is this true / necessary? I don’t know whether to focus on the fact that my antibodies haven’t changed and reintroduce gluten/lactalbumin or ficus in the fact that my inflammation appears to have reduced and continue. I keep getting differing opinions. Any advice gratefully received. Thank you
