Thank you for the plethora of replies. Many stressed the GF diet, which I am trying to follow strictly.
In addition, several people warned against short cuts and having patience while healing. Just to clarify, I am hoping to engage in natural remedies to supplement my healing, in addition to a GF diet.
Other responses:1. Probotics, digestive enzymes, and acidopilus
2. homeopathic remedy,
Veratrum 30C (Boiron)for accidental glutenings
3. recommended by naturopath to cultivate a healthy gut microbiome by suggesting eating
a variety of fermented foods

4. Approximately 20% of
celiac has problems with canola, made from a member of the mustard
family-rapeseed
5. at-home, finger-stick

6. pharmaceutical grade
supplements to offset your symptoms, recommended by a nutritionist for vitamin
deficiencies
7. for accidental glutenings: As soon as practicable: Several glasses of pure (preferably
