One just has to be careful about dosage when taking ALA. At least I
was taking it every 3 hours, so fans of the Andy Cutler protocol
would approve. :-)

Actually, I was trying a different brand and dosage, and it seemed
more tolerable / beneficial than what I had been using
before. This time I was taking Kirkman ALA 25mg capsules with
half the contents dumped out (so that makes them about 12mg)
every 3 hours. I only did this for a day, but next weekend
I'll try for a bit longer, since I had zero adverse reaction
last weekend.

It seems to me unless you are trying a short-term detox,
R-ALA is the way to go. And I would take it with minerals
like zinc.

The folks on the chelation groups I'm on are against R-ALA
for some reason, and they seem to like plain ALA.

But yes, I'm taking plenty of minerals...

Marc

I think there are reasons to take it that have nothing
to do with chelation or its antioxidant properties (which
are good too). I should not it seems to be called RLA
except that the body-builders call it R-ALA.

Hi Diane,
 
Well I'll give it a whirl but I think eliminating it forever is not feasible for me. I guess I just have to get used to the diet change. Gluten free just doesn't taste as good you know.
 
Sounds like your are struggling right now. Loni

Hi again, Loni,
 
Sorry to say, no, I don't believe you can cheat at all on glutens and casein if they are causing you gut injury.  For me personally, I could not begin to heal from celiac damage as long as it was even in our house, Loni!  I reacted to breathing the dust from my husband's gluten cereal every morning!  I had no idea this was affecting me until he had to go outof town on work for over a month.  I got remarkably better while he was away, but as soon as he returned, I got bad again!  We did some real thinking to try to figure out what was going on, let me tell you.  For awhile I was worried I was allergic to my husband!  lol 
 
Years later, I read a celiac research paper which looked into the problem of people who do not recover on the celiac gf diet.  It stated that there was a connection with no recovery and airborne glutens.  A number of people who didn't recover were farmers from the wheat belt.
 
BTW, Loni, I am totally gf and was df for several years, but can now tolerate lactaid milk and most cheeses just fine, as long as the gut bugs are under control.  I am usually yeast-free and totally sugar and sugar substitute free, as well (that is truly difficult, on top of the other two).  But I "fell off the wagon" when my hubby had to do all the cooking after my hand accident and haven't gotten back on yet.  (I think I might need a 12 step program.  lol) 

Sorry to put a wrench into your cheating plan, Loni.  lol
Diane

Yes I do need to be off of casein & gluten. Had the blood allergy test & was severe reaction to grains & casein. So you don't believe that you can on occassion eat those foods without causing damage? I did not test positive for celiac. I find it very difficult to cut out permanently without splurging once in a while. Loni

Hi Loni,
 
You wrote:
I am doing the Mark Hyman's diet with no gluten & dairy I am having a bit more energy. Hard to cut out all together however.
 
My 2 cents:
Loni, often when you respond to going gluten-free and dairy-free, it is necessary to bite the bullet and go completely gf and df.  Also, it wouldbe good for you to eventually determine which type of gf and df diet you should follow long term—df can mean lactose-free or casein-free.  Gf can be any thing from wheat-free to wheat, rye, and barley-free; or that plus oats and millet-free, as well.  And in some cases even corn-free. 
 
For a casein-free diet you would need to totally go dairy-free.  For alactose-free diet, you can actually buy lactose added dairy products, suchas “Lactaid Milk”, and so complete compliance is not necessary.  But if you need to go casein-free, you won’t be doing yourself a favor by cheating, as cheating can cause gut damage.  Mark Hyman’s diet (I am not familiar with it, but know a lot about gf anddf diets in general) probably is operating on the principal that glutens and dairy can cause gut damage in susceptible people.  This gut damage increases the likelihood that metals and parasites (the general term, not specifically “parasites”) will enter the bloodstream and take up residence in the organs.  So complete compliance is a necessity and just lowering the amount of these gut “poisons” will notdo the job.  Sometimes, however, you can go back to a lactose-free diet in a year, after the gut damage is repaired.  If gluten or
casein has caused gut damage, it is not likely you will ever tolerate it enough to add it back, unless you are able to try something different, such as durum wheat (that has not been proven to work, but there is research on this possibility currently going on.)
 
There are sites dedicated to these diets which help you choose foods you can eat, which might help you, Loni.  Like the celiac gf diets, casein-free diets intend to eliminate dairy from even manufactured foods, so it isn’t as easy as just not having milk and cheeses, for instance. So, YES, it is fairly difficult to accomplish.  Here is one site which keeps a gf/cf manufacturer’s food list:
 
http://www.gfcfdiet .com/   Scroll down to the bottom of the pageto where it says “Directory of Website” and that will takeyou to a page with alphabetical links to the particular types of foods youmight be looking for.
 
Hope this helps you with your dieting,
Diane
