<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> 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 On Tue, 6 Dec 1994, Portia wrote: > ...I was wondering if you or > anyone has any advice on how to speed up the healing of the leaky gut > wall once gluten has been removed from the diet?
