I have no knowledge of how to speed up the healing of the gut apart from
adhering to  strict gluten free diet.  there is somne evidence from A
study done in DH that the use of a elemental diet may speed healing of
the skin lesions. I advise that people take a nutriationally balanced
diet and try to ensure that they have an adequate supply of
micronutrients either from the diet or if there are marked defiencies by
adding vitamins to the diet temporarily.

I still suggest that it is necessary to have a biopsy of the intestine to
confirm celiac disease. Gluten intolerant individuals who have not got
celiac disease are an intellectual challenge and responses to trial of
dietary intervention seem to be necessary to support the diagnosis.
Have any of the studies on autism / schizophrenia been done double blind?
Autism and schizophrenia are common in ireland, whether it is more or
less common than elsewhere I dont know.  joe murray
